The Polyco Optima Mediumweight Flock-Lined Rubber Glove is a high-performance reusable latex glove designed for reliable protection in wet, chemical and hygiene-critical environments. Made from mediumweight natural rubber latex with a soft cotton flock lining, the Optima glove offers enhanced comfort and dexterity while reducing hand fatigue during use. The slip-resistant grip pattern on the palm and fingers improves handling of tools and materials in wet conditions.

Available in multiple colours for task-specific coding, Optima gloves are also food safe, making them suitable for food handling, cleaning, maintenance and general wet work.
