January 17, 2025

Essential for Ensuring Cleanliness and Safety

Food contact gloves are crucial tools in maintaining the hygiene and safety of the food we consume. To guarantee that these gloves are of superior quality and genuinely safe for use, manufacturers must undergo rigorous testing based on international standards. This article outlines the testing procedures and certifications that our gloves have passed to ensure they meet the highest safety standards for food handling.

Safety Testing of Food Contact Gloves

Testing with Various Food Types:
To guarantee the gloves’ compatibility with all food types, we test them with a range of food categories, including water-based, alcoholic, acidic, oily, and dry foods, ensuring their reliability in diverse environments.
Overall Migration Test:
This test determines whether any substances migrate from the glove material to the food. According to laboratory results conducted under ISO 17025 standards, no foreign substances were detected in food samples that came into contact with our gloves, ensuring their safety.
Specific Migration for Heavy Metals:
Our gloves undergo testing for up to 24 types of heavy metals. The results showed no detectable heavy metals, confirming that the gloves are free from heavy metal contamination and safe for food handling.
