Description

Size small disposable poly deli gloves made from HDPE (high-density polyethylene). Like all HDPE deli gloves, they are loose-fitting and quick to put on and take off, which makes them practical for short food handling tasks where staff change gloves often. Polyethylene is latex-free.

The small size suits workers with smaller hands, so the glove sits closer and slips less during prep. Delis, sandwich shops, bakeries, cafes, grocery counters and caterers use them for assembling, portioning and serving. Each box holds 500 gloves and each case holds 20 boxes, shipped from MPPL's Richmond, BC warehouse.

Q. How often should deli and sushi counter staff change poly gloves?

A. Staff should change poly gloves whenever they switch tasks, after touching raw food, money or surfaces, and whenever a glove tears. Frequent changes are why loose HDPE gloves are bought in large boxes.

Q. How does a bakery or deli know when staff need small poly gloves?

A. If staff find larger poly gloves sliding off or bunching at the fingertips, small is worth stocking. Poly deli gloves are loose by design, so choose the smallest size each person can put on easily without tearing.

Q. Should a food manufacturer choose HDPE or LDPE gloves?

A. A food manufacturer should choose HDPE gloves for quick, light tasks with frequent changes, and LDPE when workers want a softer, slightly stretchier feel. Both are polyethylene and latex-free.

Q. Should deli and bakery staff remove rings before putting on poly gloves?

A. Yes, staff should remove rings and keep nails short before gloving, because jewellery and long nails can puncture thin poly gloves. A torn glove offers no protection, so this simple step cuts glove waste and contamination risk.

Q. Should an Asian supermarket prepared-food counter use poly or nitrile gloves?

A. Use poly gloves for fast, light tasks like portioning and packing, and nitrile for longer tasks, oily foods or work that needs grip. Many counters stock both and assign each to specific tasks.

Q. Are poly deli gloves safe for handling raw meat and seafood at a market counter?

A. Poly deli gloves can be used for quick raw meat and seafood tasks, but staff must change them immediately afterwards to avoid cross-contamination. For longer cutting or cleaning work, a closer-fitting glove such as nitrile holds up better.

Q. Can food counter staff with a cut on their hand work in poly gloves?

A. Staff with a cut should cover it with a waterproof bandage first and then wear a glove over it, since a poly glove alone is easy to tear. Change the glove often and check that the bandage stays covered throughout the shift.

Q. What glove mistakes do deli and QSR teams make most often?

A. The most common mistakes are wearing one pair across several tasks, reusing gloves, and wearing thin poly gloves near grills and fryers. Poly gloves are not heat-resistant, so assign them to cold prep only.

Q. Are poly gloves a good fit for bakery decorating and detail work?

A. Poly gloves are better for handling and packing finished bakery items than for detailed decorating. Their loose fit limits fingertip control, so decorators often prefer a closer-fitting glove for piping and fine work.

Q. Where should a food counter place poly glove boxes?

A. Place boxes at each prep station, within reach of the handwashing sink and away from raw food splash. Easy reach makes staff far more likely to change gloves as often as they should.
