Are PVC Gloves Chemical Resistant?

PVC gloves can provide resistance to certain substances, but no PVC glove should automatically be considered suitable for every chemical.

Chemical resistance depends on factors including the glove formulation, thickness, construction, exposure time, chemical concentration and the specific substance being handled.

When working with chemicals, check the manufacturer's chemical compatibility information and the workplace risk assessment before choosing a glove.

How to Choose PVC Gloves

Choose PVC gloves according to the hazard, task and required protection rather than relying only on colour or appearance.

1. Identify the Hazard

Determine whether the worker is exposed to water, cleaning products, oils, chemicals, contamination or another hazard.

2. Check Glove Length

Choose wrist, long-cuff or gauntlet-style protection according to the level of hand and forearm coverage required.

3. Check Chemical Compatibility

When handling chemicals, confirm that the specific glove is suitable for the chemical being used.

4. Consider Grip

Consider whether workers will handle wet, slippery or oily objects and select the appropriate glove construction.

5. Consider Dexterity

Thicker gloves may provide different protection characteristics but can also affect fine hand movement.

6. Check Fit

Gloves should fit the user appropriately and allow the required work to be carried out safely.
