Insulated Cold Room Work Gloves
Global Glove SG5200INT cold room work gloves combine split cowhide leather palms, flexible black spandex backs and 120 grams of Cold Keep® insulation. An internal waterproof moisture barrier supports use around damp materials. Griptex reinforcement covers the thumb crotch, palm and fingertips. ASA lists this model under SKU S9900HF.
Key Features

- Neoprene padding across the knuckles
- Reflective stripe on the glove back
- Open outer cuff with inner knit wrist
Common Uses and Applications
- Cold-storage warehouse handling
- Freezer picking and loading tasks
- Transportation and delivery work
- Outdoor construction support in cold conditions
Cold Protection and Temperature Limits
The manufacturer identifies freezer applications, but its datasheet does not provide a minimum temperature rating or safe exposure duration. The 120 g insulation specification describes construction; it does not establish protection at −20°F. Assess air temperature, cold contact, moisture, activity and time on task before selecting these insulated gloves.
Plan warming breaks and glove changes according to workplace procedures. If hands become numb, painful or difficult to move, stop the exposure and follow the site's cold-stress response. A heavier glove or different task arrangement may be needed for prolonged cold contact.
Applicable OSHA Requirements
OSHA 29 CFR 1910.138 requires suitable hand protection for identified hazards, including harmful temperature extremes. Selection must account for glove performance, tasks, conditions and exposure duration. OSHA 1910.132(d) requires hazard assessment and properly fitting PPE. These requirements do not constitute OSHA product certification.
Waterproof Barrier, Grip and Fit
The waterproof layer sits inside the glove. Water can still enter through the cuff, and exterior materials can become wet. This construction does not establish chemical resistance or suitability for immersion. Test grip with the actual cartons, tools and loads; ice, oil and wear can affect control.
Allow room for finger movement without compressing the insulation. Inspect seams, reinforcement and lining before use. Replace damaged gloves and follow manufacturer care guidance. Neoprene padding does not establish an ANSI impact rating. No ANSI cut classification or EN 511 cold rating is specified in the linked sheet.
The reflective stripe needs incoming light and does not replace required high-visibility apparel, worksite lighting or traffic controls during loading operations.
