Ensuring the Longevity and Performance of Your Work Gloves and Workwear

At Friction Pro, we take pride in providing high-quality work gloves and workwear designed to withstand the rigours of demanding work environments. However, to ensure that your gear continues to perform at its best and lasts as long as possible, proper care is essential. This guide will walk you through the steps to maintain and extend the life of your Friction Pro products.

Cleaning Your Work Gloves

Natural Leather Gloves:

• Avoid Water Saturation: Leather is a natural material that can stiffen or lose its shape when exposed to excessive water. If your gloves get wet, allow them to air dry naturally, away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, which can cause the leather to crack.
• Clean Gently: Use a damp cloth to wipe off dirt or stains. For tougher grime, use a mild soap solution (avoid harsh chemicals) and gently scrub the affected areas. Rinse with a clean, damp cloth and let the gloves air dry.
• Condition Regularly: To keep the leather supple, apply a leather conditioner or cream after cleaning. This helps restore moisture to the leather and prevents it from drying out and cracking. Be sure to use a product suitable for the type of leather your gloves are made from.

Synthetic Leather Gloves:

• Simple Cleaning: Synthetic leather is more water-resistant than natural leather, making it easier to clean. Wipe your gloves with a damp cloth or sponge soaked in a mild soap solution. Rinse off any soap residue with a clean, damp cloth.
• Air Drying: Let the gloves air dry completely before storing them. Avoid direct sunlight or heat sources that could damage the synthetic material.

Fabric Gloves:

• Machine Washable: Most fabric-based gloves, like cotton or nylon, can be machine washed. Use a gentle cycle with cold water to avoid shrinking or damaging the material.
• Avoid Harsh Detergents: Opt for mild detergents that are free from bleach or other harsh chemicals that could weaken the fabric fibers.
• Air Dry: After washing, air dry your gloves. Machine drying can cause shrinking or reduce the elasticity of the fabric.

It is essential to note that different types of gloves may have different size requirements. For example, gloves used for medical purposes may have a tighter fit to provide better protection against germs and bacteria, while work gloves may require a looser fit to allow for better movement and dexterity.

When selecting gloves, it is crucial to consider the intended purpose, the material of the gloves, and the level of protection required. It is also essential to try on gloves before purchasing them to ensure they fit properly and are comfortable to wear.
