Glove technology has advanced so quickly in the past 20 years that gloves not only protect hands, but also help increase efficiency. Coated knits offer workers snag-free protection and high tactility grip.

In 2014,* 137,440 hand injuries resulted in an average of five days of missed work. While that might not sound like much, it means a project was at least one worker short for an entire workweek.
