PROTECTIVE INDUSTRIALPRODUCTS
PROTECTIVE INDUSTRIALPRODUCTS
Workers, safety managers and new regulations
all demand an added level of protection when
working with shared items, equipment, or contact
surfaces. Gloves are now being relied upon as
a new line of defense against contamination.
A WORK GLOVE FOR
MULTIPLE WORKER RISKS
Disposable gloves are NOT an ideal, sustainable, or effective solution for worker confidence. Workers must wear
gloves that help protect them from cuts and abrasion while providing barrier protection. Gloves need effective
grip to help workers be productive. That’s why they need G-Tek® VR-X™ gloves.
The FIRST reusable coated seamless knit glove
offering Advanced Barrier Protection using
patent-pending glove technology found only
in G-Tek® VR-X™ series gloves.

WHAT IS ADVANCED BARRIER PROTECTION?
PIP®, in collaboration with its key partners, has developed a
new biodegradable polyurethane-based coating that offers
unprecedented barrier protection in a work glove.
