Gloves Matter in Every Kitchen
When it comes to kitchen hygiene, gloves aren’t optional—they’re essential. But choosing the right disposable gloves isn’t as straightforward as it seems. Not all gloves are food safe, and using the wrong kind could put your business, staff, or customers at risk.
At BIGSKU, we provide professional food grade gloves designed for Canadian restaurants, catering kitchens, and food packaging environments. Here’s how to choose the right gloves for your operation.
Most Common Disposable Gloves for Food Service
At BIGSKU, we currently carry three top-performing glove types widely used across Canada’s food service industry.
Black Nitrile Gloves
- Popular in BBQ kitchens, food trucks, and open-kitchen restaurants
- Resistant to oil and punctures
- Great for cooking meats or prepping greasy foods
Blue Nitrile Gloves
- Ideal for general food prep tasks
- Latex-free and comfortable for long use
- Highly visible for food safety compliance
Clear Poly Gloves
- Best for high-volume, low-risk food handling (e.g. sandwich assembly, bakery)
- Lightweight and easy to switch between tasks
Gloves + Food Packaging = Complete Food Safety
Choosing the right gloves is only half the job. To ensure a fully compliant kitchen, it’s just as important to pair them with food-safe packaging—from takeout containers to food tray.
Whether you're handling raw ingredients or packing ready-to-go orders, combining disposable gloves with proper food packaging helps maintain hygiene, prevent cross-contamination, and meet health standards.
