Accessories for the food industry PPE

The main PPE for the food industry includes disposable gloves (nitrile or latex), surgical or FFP masks, hair covering caps, non-slip footwear and waterproof aprons. These accessories guarantee protection against cross-contamination, exposure to chemical or biological substances and mechanical risks. It is essential that each item complies with food safety and hygiene standards. RAG Tailors offers a wide range of PPE accessories for the food industry that strictly comply with legal and technical requirements, offering safe and comfortable solutions for professionals in industrial kitchens, laboratories and food production units.

The choice of gloves for industrial kitchens depends on the type of activities performed. Factors such as heat resistance, cut protection, flexibility and food safety must be taken into account. Nitrile gloves are widely used because they are hypoallergenic and resistant to oils and chemicals, while metal mesh gloves are ideal for intensive cutting tasks. Make sure that the gloves comply with EN standards, such as EN 374 for chemical and microbiological protection. At RAG Tailors, you will find different models of certified industrial kitchen gloves, adapted to the requirements of each function in the food sector.

Personal protective equipment prevents the transmission of microorganisms between workers and food, significantly reducing the risk of contamination. Caps, masks and aprons, for example, prevent biological particles or hair from coming into contact with food, while appropriate footwear ensures operator safety on slippery surfaces. RAG Tailors offers optimized solutions for food environments, incorporating easy-to-clean materials and designs that meet the most stringent food safety criteria. These accessories are essential for complying with safety protocols and ensuring compliance with food hygiene regulations.

PPE must be cleaned regularly and replaced when it becomes worn or loses its protective effectiveness. Disposable gloves should be changed after each use, while hygienic caps and masks should follow the manufacturer’s recommendations. Reusable footwear and aprons should be washed with suitable detergents after each shift. Regularly checking the integrity of accessories is crucial to ensure continued protection. At RAG Tailors, we advise our customers on the best methods of maintaining each piece of equipment, ensuring durability and compliance with hygiene and safety standards.
