Handling Unmanned Aerial Vehicles

While drones have much added benefit, most people do not adequately inform themselves about the use of drones and do not realize what can happen if things turn and go wrong. Simply put, aerial drones are not toys and there are a lot of things to consider when handling these, otherwise an accident can happen leading to deep lacerations, severed body parts and worst case scenario, even kill if they happen to cut a main artery in the wrist. For this reason, many safety directors are mandating the use of cut-resistant hand protection when operating drones.

Gloves for Drone Handling

These industrial work gloves were selected based on tactility, breathability, grip, cut level and touchscreen compatibility that allows operators to interact with touch devices without removing their gloves.
