If we don’t have your glove, we’ll build it.
Innovative Gloves & Safety has designed and built its own hand-protection lines since 2003 (cut, impact, leather, clean-room, and general-purpose), and keeps them stocked in warehouses across the U.S., including Houston, so orders ship fast nationwide. We built the business around small and mid-sized buyers, the teams larger suppliers turn away over volume, with price breaks and custom runs at quantities you can actually commit to.
Most suppliers sell you the closest thing on the shelf. We match a glove to your exact hazard, and when the right one doesn’t exist, we build it. One partner for the whole program, from a single case to a custom line of your own.
Because we control the manufacturing, we can do what shelf-stock distributors can’t: match the exact cut level, coating, gauge, and sizing a job needs, and build custom or small-batch runs when the catalog doesn’t already have the answer. That’s how a footwear maker got a cut glove in sizing no one else would produce, and reordered it for 15 years.
We prove the fit before we ask for the business: tell us the hazard, and we’ll spec a line and send a free sample with its cert documentation. Manufacturing data for a specific line is available on request.
Standards we build to
- ANSI/ISEA 105 cut levels A1–A9
- EN388 abrasion, cut, tear & puncture
- ANSI/ISEA 138 back-of-hand impact
- EN407 heat & flame (select leather lines)
- Documentation provided with samples and on request
Built for teams other suppliers turned away.
Our workforce runs small, and even a standard size Small ran too large. Every other supplier turned us away over volume. IGS engineered a cut-resistant glove in the exact sizing we needed. That was over 15 years ago. We’ve been reordering the same SKU ever since.
We knew exactly what we needed. What we couldn’t find was anyone willing to make it at the quantities we could commit to. IGS built it anyway. Small batch, right spec, no runaround.
Tell us the hazard. We’ll match a glove and prove it.
Give us the exposure and your current glove if you have one. We’ll spec a line and ship a free sample with its cert docs.
