Bamboo ROC GP169 Gloves
Magid Glove & Safety leads the movement in environmentally friendly hand protection with today’s introduction of Bamboo ROC Gloves, the industry’s first general-purpose work gloves manufactured using a 100% bamboo fiber shell.
The Bamboo ROC GP169 Gloves feature a 100% bamboo seamless brown machine knit shell with a foam nitrile palm coating. The bamboo pulp fiber used in the manufacture of Bamboo ROC Gloves is made using a mechanical process without the use of environmentally harmful chemicals, and unlike synthetic fibers, bamboo is not petroleum-based, which is becoming more important in a world of high oil prices and dwindling reserves.
The Bamboo ROC Gloves’ 100% bamboo machine knit shell is not only kinder to the environment but lighter, softer, and more absorbent than most shells made from cotton or synthetics. Possessing inherent antibacterial and antifungal properties, bamboo fiber reduces bad odors and irritants on contact, extending the life of the gloves in the field. Its unique porous structure also wicks moisture away from the skin up to four times faster than cotton. The result is gloves that keep hands cooler, drier, and more comfortable in a wide range of industrial applications.
Bamboo ROC Gloves offer superior comfort while providing the toughness and grip that customers expect from the Magid ROC line of gloves. The gloves’ premium black foam nitrile or foam natural rubber latex palm delivers excellent grip, dexterity, abrasion resistance, and ANSI Cut Level 1 protection.
