£5.89(£7.07 inc VAT)
These are single-use, powder-free latex gloves intended for food handling, food preparation, and general kitchen tasks where a barrier between hands and food or surfaces is required. Non-sterile and supplied in packs of 100, they are a standard consumable across commercial kitchens, food service operations, and catering environments.
In a busy kitchen, disposable gloves are used heavily throughout service — during prep, plating, and cleaning tasks. Powder-free gloves are generally preferred in food environments because they avoid the risk of powder contamination on food or surfaces, and they tend to cause less irritation during extended wear. Latex offers a close, comfortable fit that allows reasonable dexterity for detail work compared to thicker alternatives.
Practical advantages for kitchen teams include:
- Powder-free construction reduces contamination risk in food prep areas
- Available in four sizes to fit a range of hand sizes across kitchen staff
- Close-fitting latex material supports dexterity during detailed tasks
- Single-use format supports hygiene compliance and cross-contamination control
- Pack of 100 provides a practical quantity for regular stock rotation
It is worth noting that latex gloves are not suitable for anyone with a latex allergy — staff or customers. Where latex sensitivity is a known concern in your team or operation, nitrile alternatives are the more appropriate choice. These gloves are non-sterile and intended for general food handling rather than clinical or medical use.
Well suited to cafés, restaurants, contract catering, pub kitchens, and food production environments as a day-to-day consumable. For operations running very high volumes or requiring latex-free compliance across the board, it is worth discussing alternative materials and pack sizes with the team before placing a bulk order.
From £5.89(£7.07 inc VAT)
These are powder-free disposable gloves made from nitrile, a synthetic rubber that contains no natural rubber latex proteins. They are blue, which is a widely used colour in food environments because it is easy to spot if a glove or fragment becomes contaminated with food.
Nitrile offers better resistance to oils, fats, and light chemicals than vinyl, making these gloves a practical choice across food preparation, cleaning tasks, and general kitchen hygiene work. The powder-free construction avoids the residue that powdered gloves can leave on food surfaces and reduces the risk of skin irritation with prolonged use.
- Latex-free — suitable for staff with latex sensitivities
- Resistant to oils, fats, and common cleaning chemicals
- Blue colour aids visibility in food preparation environments
- Powder-free to avoid surface contamination and skin irritation
- Available in Small, Medium, Large, and Extra Large
For most kitchen operations, nitrile gloves strike a sensible balance between durability and cost. They hold up better than vinyl under tasks involving grease or cleaning agents, though they are still intended as single-use disposables rather than heavy-duty protection. Sites with very high glove turnover may want to consider bulk pack formats.
If you are unsure which size or glove type is most appropriate for your team's work, we are happy to help you work through the options.
£5.89(£7.07 inc VAT)
These are standard lightly powdered latex disposable gloves, supplied in boxes of 100 and available in four sizes. The powder aids donning, making them practical in busy environments where gloves are changed frequently throughout a shift. The latex construction provides reasonable tactile sensitivity and grip for general food preparation and handling tasks.
In day-to-day kitchen use, these gloves are well suited to prep work where staff need to handle food safely without sacrificing dexterity. The fit is close enough to allow reasonable control during chopping, portioning, and assembly tasks. Being disposable, they support good hygiene practice by encouraging regular changes between tasks or food types.
- Practical for frequent glove changes across a shift
- Lightly powdered for easier donning, even with damp hands
- Good touch sensitivity for general prep and food handling
- Available in S, M, L and XL to suit most kitchen teams
- Non-sterile, suitable for general food handling environments
One consideration worth noting: latex allergies are not uncommon, and some kitchen operators have moved away from latex gloves entirely to avoid issues with staff or, in certain settings, customers. If latex sensitivity is a concern in your kitchen, it is worth considering a nitrile alternative. These gloves are not suitable for use by anyone with a known latex allergy.
These gloves are a practical everyday consumable for most commercial kitchens, cafés, and food preparation environments where a reliable disposable option is needed for general use. Higher-volume sites or those requiring additional chemical resistance may find a heavier-duty nitrile glove better suited to their needs.
If you are unsure which glove type or size range is right for your team, we are happy to help you work through the options.
£9.32(£11.18 inc VAT)
These are single-use blue vinyl gloves from Unicare, lightly powdered for easier donning and ambidextrous in fit. They are non-sterile and intended for single-purpose use, making them a standard choice for food handling, preparation, and general hygiene tasks in commercial kitchen environments.
In a busy kitchen, disposable gloves need to be quick to put on, comfortable enough to work in without fatigue, and reliable enough not to split during normal handling tasks. The powdered lining helps staff glove up quickly during service without fumbling, and the beaded cuff adds a degree of stability at the wrist. Vinyl gloves of this type are widely used across catering, food preparation, and light cleaning duties.
- Lightly powdered for quick, easy donning during busy service
- Ambidextrous fit reduces stock complexity — one box covers all staff
- Beaded cuff helps keep the glove in place during use
- Blue colouring supports colour-coded hygiene protocols
- Single-use construction supports cross-contamination control
It is worth noting that powdered vinyl gloves are not suitable for use with staff who have latex or powder sensitivities, and they are not appropriate for handling ready-to-eat food in all local authority guidance areas — it is worth checking your food safety procedures before selecting this glove type. For higher-risk applications or allergy-sensitive environments, a powder-free or nitrile alternative may be more appropriate.
These are well suited to general food preparation kitchens, catering operations, and hospitality environments where a reliable, cost-effective disposable glove is needed in volume. If you are unsure which glove type best fits your hygiene protocols or procurement requirements, the team is happy to help you work through the options.
£9.32(£11.18 inc VAT)
These are lightly powdered blue vinyl gloves from Unicare, supplied in boxes of 100. Powdered vinyl gloves are a long-standing choice in catering and food preparation environments where single-use hand protection is required and latex sensitivity is a concern. The powder aids donning, which is useful when gloves are being changed frequently during a busy service.
In a commercial kitchen setting, disposable gloves like these are commonly used for handling ready-to-eat foods, portioning, plating, and general food prep tasks where cross-contamination control is a priority. Blue colouring is standard practice in food environments as it allows dropped or torn gloves to be identified easily against food and work surfaces.
- Single-use construction supports hygiene protocols between tasks
- Lightly powdered for easier and quicker donning
- Blue colour aids contamination detection in food prep areas
- Vinyl construction suitable for operators with latex sensitivities
- 100-unit box format suits regular restocking routines
It is worth noting that powdered gloves are not suitable for all food environments — some settings, particularly those serving allergen-sensitive customers, may require powder-free alternatives. Check your local environmental health requirements if you are unsure which type is appropriate for your operation.
If you are purchasing gloves in volume or need guidance on the right type for your specific kitchen environment, the team is happy to help point you in the right direction.
£9.61(£11.53 inc VAT)
These are single-use, lightly powdered vinyl gloves intended for food handling and general kitchen tasks. Non-sterile and supplied in blue, they are a practical choice for front- and back-of-house operations where colour-coded glove use is part of allergen or hygiene protocols.
Vinyl gloves are widely used in catering environments where tasks are frequent and short-duration — portioning, plating, handling ready-to-eat foods, or general prep work. The light powder aids donning, which matters when staff are changing gloves repeatedly during a busy service.
Blue colouring makes them straightforward to manage within colour-coded hygiene systems, and helps with visual identification should a glove or fragment end up where it shouldn't. The pack size of 100 suits a working shift without over-ordering.
A few things worth considering: vinyl gloves offer less elasticity than latex or nitrile, so they are best suited to low-risk, short-contact tasks rather than prolonged or heavy-duty handling. If your kitchen works with strong chemicals for cleaning tasks, or if staff have sensitivity concerns, a nitrile option may be more appropriate. Similarly, if you are supplying a high-volume operation where glove usage is very high, it is worth considering whether a larger pack format would better suit your throughput.
If you are unsure which glove type or size best fits your operation's hygiene requirements, the team is happy to point you in the right direction.
£9.32(£11.18 inc VAT)
These are single-use, lightly powdered vinyl gloves in blue, supplied in a box of 100. The powder aids donning, which is useful in busy kitchen environments where gloves need to be changed frequently throughout service. Blue colouring supports basic colour-coded hygiene practice, making contamination easier to spot against most food types.
Vinyl gloves of this type are a practical choice for general food handling, light prep work, and tasks where a barrier is required but dexterity demands are not high. They are not suited to heavy-duty cleaning chemicals or prolonged immersion, and are not a substitute for cut-resistant or heat-resistant gloves where those hazards are present.
- Lightly powdered for quick, easy donning during busy service periods
- Blue colour supports colour-coded contamination control
- Single-use construction supports hygiene compliance
- 100 per box — practical stock quantity for most operations
- Suitable for general food prep and handling tasks
If you handle allergens and need to minimise powder transfer, or if staff have latex or powder sensitivities, a powder-free alternative may be more appropriate for your operation. If you are unsure which glove type suits your specific workflow or compliance requirements, the team is happy to point you in the right direction.
£9.32(£11.18 inc VAT)
These are single-use, lightly powdered vinyl gloves from Unicare, supplied in a pack of 100 in medium sizing. The light powder coating aids donning, making them practical for busy kitchen environments where staff are putting gloves on and off frequently throughout service.
Vinyl gloves are commonly used in catering and food preparation where a latex-free option is required. They provide a basic barrier for food handling tasks and are a practical choice for front-line catering staff, serving teams, and kitchen preparation work where gloves are changed regularly between tasks.
It is worth noting that vinyl gloves offer less elasticity and conformity than nitrile alternatives, so for tasks requiring greater dexterity or extended wear, a nitrile option may be worth considering. For sites with very high throughput, larger pack formats are available.
If you are unsure which glove type or sizing is most appropriate for your operation, the team is happy to help you work through the options.
£9.61(£11.53 inc VAT)
These are single-use, non-sterile powdered vinyl gloves in an extra large size, supplied in packs of 100. They are ambidextrous, so there is no separation of left and right-handed gloves to manage, and the beaded cuff helps with donning and provides a modest barrier against rollback during use.
In a catering environment, vinyl disposable gloves are commonly used during food preparation tasks where a physical barrier between hands and food is required — handling raw ingredients, portioning, plating, or working with allergen-sensitive items. The powder helps staff pull gloves on quickly during a busy service, which matters when changeover time is limited.
- Single-use design keeps cross-contamination risk low across different prep tasks
- Ambidextrous fit reduces waste and simplifies stock management
- Beaded cuff aids consistent donning, even when hands are damp
- Powder-coated interior for faster application during high-turnover service periods
- Non-sterile, general-purpose — suitable for most front and back of house food handling tasks
It is worth noting that vinyl gloves are not appropriate for all tasks. They offer less elasticity than nitrile alternatives and are generally not recommended for tasks involving harsh cleaning chemicals or where a closer, more durable fit is needed. Staff with latex sensitivities can typically use vinyl without issue, though if allergies are a concern it is worth confirming suitability with a healthcare adviser.
These gloves are well suited to high-volume catering operations, contract caterers, school kitchens, and hospitality venues where disposable gloves are used in quantity across multiple shifts. If your operation requires a different size or a latex-free nitrile option, we can point you in the right direction — feel free to get in touch with the team.
£9.32(£11.18 inc VAT)
These are single-use, lightly powdered vinyl gloves intended for food preparation, general kitchen handling, and similar hygiene-sensitive tasks. The powder coating aids donning, which is useful when hands are damp or when gloves need to be changed quickly during service. They are non-sterile and designed for disposable, single-purpose use.
In a busy kitchen environment, disposable gloves are a routine consumable. Vinyl gloves of this type are commonly used for tasks such as handling ready-to-eat foods, portioning, plating, and light cleaning duties where a barrier is required but a high degree of dexterity is less critical. They are not intended for prolonged exposure to heat or heavy-duty chemical handling.
- Lightly powdered for easy donning, even with damp hands
- Single-use construction supports food hygiene compliance
- Suitable for food contact and general prep tasks
- Large size accommodates a wider range of hand sizes
- Supplied in a box of 100 for straightforward stock management
It is worth noting that some individuals have sensitivities to the powder used in lightly powdered gloves, and certain food environments or local authority guidance may prefer powder-free alternatives. If you are unsure which specification is appropriate for your operation, we are happy to help you work through the options.
