Animal Handling Gloves
Size Medium
Handling animals always comes with risks. Ensuring you and your team are protected will always be a high priority. These Venom Defender Animal Handling Gloves will help protect your team from fractious, stressed animals and form part of your Safe Operating Procedures.
Protect your staff and their ability to work unharmed
Injuries from cats are not uncommon and have the potential to be a serious injury. 56% of reported injuries in a group of small animal practices over a 12 month period were caused by cats with the majority of injuries occurring to hands through abrasions, scratches and puncture wounds due to an unexpected animal reaction. Several of these resulted in the injured person being unable to work for over 7 days.* Using the Animal Handling Venom Defender Gloves will not only protect your staff but reduce work place related incidents and resulting time off work.
