Frequently Asked Questions
What makes the Mercator Ideall® Grip texture different from standard disposable gloves?
Standard disposable gloves are smooth or lightly textured at the fingertips, making them prone to slipping when handling greasy or wet tools. Mercator Ideall® Grip gloves feature a pronounced 3D diamond pattern embossed across the entire inner and outer surface. This not only channels liquids away to maximize exterior grip, but also minimizes hand slippage inside the glove during intense tasks.
Are Mercator gloves safe to use with industrial chemicals and toxic fibres.
Yes. These premium nitrile gloves are fully certified to EN ISO 374-1:2016 (Type B) standards, offering proven resistance against specific industrial chemicals, oils, and automotive fluids. Additionally, their specialized heavy-duty formulation provides a certified protective barrier against dangerous toxic particles and fibers, making them highly trusted for insulation removal, demolition, and waste processing.
Can these heavy-duty disposable gloves be used with touchscreen devices?
Absolutely. Modern industrial environments require constant access to digital tablets, smart inventory tools, and phones. Mercator gloves are fully touchscreen-compatible. Workers can seamlessly operate capacitive display screens without needing to remove their hand protection, vastly improving on-site safety and reducing overall downtime.
Are Mercator gloves powder-free and latex-free?
Yes, the entire Mercator range supplied by Just 1 Source is 100% powder-free and latex-free. This significantly reduces the risk of skin irritation and Type I latex allergies for the user. Furthermore, they are entirely silicone-free, making them the ideal choice for automotive paint shops and precision manufacturing where silicone residues could ruin surface finishes.
