DIY

Hands are among the body parts most affected by accidents in the home. That said, professionals are not spared either. For this reason, they are obliged to wear appropriate Personal Protective Equipment.

At home, too, wearing protective gloves should become a reflex. And this, from the moment you start a DIY project, and even small precision work.

Rostaing DIY gloves are designed to assist you in all your activities. Some glove models cover several risks, so you're better protected. To choose your pair of gloves, take a look at their different criteria, depending on the work you have to do.

• Grip: gloves with latex, silicone or nitrile palms, for example, give you a better grip on your tools.
• Safety against mechanical hazards: leather and high-tenacity polyethylene gloves offer excellent protection. Likewise, all gloves that meet European standards such as EN 388. This protects you against cuts, punctures, tears and abrasion.
• Protection against chemicals: latex, nitrile and PVC gloves protect your skin from irritation. And to protect your forearms from splashes, opt for a pair of gloves with cuffs.

Wearing gloves that don't fit properly is another common cause of accidents. To choose your size of DIY gloves, please refer to our sizing guide. We also recommend that you read the glove data sheets for additional information.
