Mapa Ultranitril 480 Ultra Long Chemical Handling Gloves
£9.04(£10.85 inc VAT)
Delivery Information
Price Match
The Mapa Ultranitril 480 are a nitrile chemical handling glove with an extended cuff length, designed for use during heavy cleaning tasks where staff need protection from chemical splash, detergents, and cleaning agents. The flexible nitrile construction provides a good level of dexterity, which matters when staff are working quickly through end-of-service cleaning routines rather than standing still at a sink.
The chlorinated inner lining makes these gloves considerably easier to pull on and remove, particularly when hands are damp — a practical detail that makes a real difference at the end of a busy service. The embossed exterior surface maintains grip on wet, oily, or slippery objects, and the gloves are silicone-free, which is worth noting for kitchens that work with glass or polished metal surfaces where silicone contamination can cause finishing defects.
For workplaces where compliance documentation is required, these gloves are certified to EN 374 for chemical protection, EN 388 for mechanical risks, and EN 420 for general protective glove requirements.
- Suitable for dishwashing, deep cleaning, and chemical handling tasks
- Extended cuff gives additional forearm protection during heavy cleaning
- Silicone-free construction avoids contamination on glass or metal surfaces
- Chlorinated lining allows quick donning and removal during busy service periods
These are a practical everyday choice for most commercial kitchen cleaning operations. Sold as one pair, available in sizes 7 (Small), 8 (Medium), and 9 (Large). If you're equipping a full brigade or need to assess the right size split for your team, we're happy to advise.
Frequently asked questions
How do I choose the right glove size for my kitchen team?
Mapa size 7 corresponds to a small hand, size 8 to medium, and size 9 to large. For most mixed brigades, keeping a stock of medium and large covers the majority of staff. If you're unsure, it's worth sizing up rather than down — a slightly larger glove is easier to work in than one that restricts movement.
Are these gloves suitable for use with commercial kitchen cleaning chemicals?
The Ultranitril 480 is certified to EN 374, which covers protection against chemical penetration and permeation. They are well suited to the detergents, degreasers, and sanitisers commonly used in commercial kitchen cleaning. For contact with particularly aggressive or concentrated chemicals, it is worth checking the specific chemical resistance data against your cleaning product supplier's recommendations.
How long should a pair of these gloves last in a busy commercial kitchen?
Lifespan depends heavily on frequency of use and the chemicals involved. In a kitchen running daily deep cleans, a pair used consistently would typically be replaced every few weeks as a matter of hygiene practice rather than wear. Inspecting gloves regularly for punctures or degradation is good practice whenever chemical handling is involved.
