These blue cut resistant gloves from Portwest are a straightforward hand protection option designed for environments where there is a risk of cuts or lacerations from knives, mandolines, or other sharp equipment. The blue colouration is a practical consideration in food environments, making the gloves easier to spot if misplaced during service — a small but relevant detail in a busy kitchen setting.

In a commercial kitchen, they are typically used during prep work involving repetitive slicing or handling of sharp utensils. The cut resistant yarn construction provides a reliable level of hand protection without the bulk that can make fine knife work difficult.

  • Blue colour aids visibility in food preparation areas
  • Cut resistant yarn construction offers reliable hand protection during prep tasks
  • Lightweight enough to allow reasonable dexterity during use
  • Suitable for use alongside knives, slicers, and mandoline-style equipment

It is worth noting that cut resistant does not mean cut proof — these gloves are intended to reduce the risk of injury, not eliminate it entirely. They are best used as part of a broader safe working practice rather than as a substitute for proper knife handling technique.

If you are unsure whether this level of cut resistance is appropriate for your operation, or if you need gloves rated for more demanding tasks, feel free to get in touch with the team who can point you in the right direction.

Frequently asked questions

Are these gloves suitable for use with commercial slicing equipment?

They are commonly used alongside mandolines and hand slicing tasks where cut resistance is needed. However, cut resistant gloves are not rated as cut proof, and should always be used alongside proper safe operating procedures for any powered slicing equipment.

Why are the gloves blue rather than a standard colour?

The blue colour is a deliberate choice for food preparation environments. It makes the gloves easier to identify if they come into contact with food or are set down during service, which supports basic food safety awareness in a busy kitchen.

How do I choose the right size for my kitchen staff?

The gloves are available in medium and large. If your team includes staff with smaller hands, it is worth checking fit before purchasing in bulk, as an ill-fitting glove can reduce dexterity and may itself become a handling risk during prep work.
