Construction and Handling
Unsupported gloves are formed without a supporting fabric shell. This model is also unlined; neither term means the glove is pure latex without other formulation ingredients. The embossed grip adds surface texture, but handling performance depends on the object, moisture and contamination present.
The 12-inch length extends coverage beyond the hand. Check cuff position while reaching and bending the wrist. Choose enough finger room for movement without excess material that interferes with grasping. A glove that fits one worker comfortably may not suit another.
Food-Contact Information
Cordova states that the component materials comply with federal food-contact regulations under 21 CFR Parts 170–199. This manufacturer statement supports food-processing selection; it is not a blanket FDA approval for every application. Follow your facility's hygiene procedures, latex restrictions and requirements for the food and process involved.
OSHA Selection and Latex Allergy
OSHA 29 CFR 1910.138 requires employers to select hand protection appropriate to the hazards, tasks, conditions and duration of use. The regulation does not certify this glove.
Contains natural rubber latex, which may cause allergic reactions. Do not issue it to latex-allergic workers. Chemical suitability requires data for the specific substance, concentration and exposure; food-contact suitability does not establish chemical resistance. No chemical breakthrough times are provided in the linked sheet.
Keep clean replacements available at workstations and separate gloves used for different processes. Review the substance safety data sheet before handling cleaning products. If a task involves sharp edges, hot surfaces or electrical hazards, select equipment with documented protection for those hazards rather than relying on glove thickness or material alone.
Care and Manufacturer Documentation
Cordova specifies washing with commercial laundry detergent in warm water no hotter than 50°C/122°F, followed by air drying or low-heat tumble drying. Inspect for damage before reuse and follow workplace procedures for contaminated gloves.
