In modern industrial workplaces, employee safety is no longer just about compliance — it's about protecting your most valuable asset: your workforce. Whether your team operates in construction, oil and gas, mining, logistics, automotive, or heavy manufacturing, their hands face constant threats from mechanical impact, tool vibrations, and repetitive strain.


At LITA Safety, we specialize in designing hand protection that goes beyond the basics. Our anti-impact and anti-vibration gloves are engineered to prevent common workplace injuries, enhance worker comfort, and increase long-term productivity.


Let's take a deep dive into why these gloves are not just useful — but critical for the modern workforce.



The Hidden Danger: Hand Injuries in Industrial Work


According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, hand injuries account for nearly 23% of all workplace injuries, second only to back injuries. The causes vary but often include:

  • High-impact blows to knuckles, fingers, or palms

  • Repetitive vibration from power tools (e.g., jackhammers, grinders, drills)

  • Handling rough or heavy materials

  • Pinch points in machinery or materials


Without the right protection, these hazards can lead to:

  • Fractures, sprains, and crushed fingers

  • Hand-Arm Vibration Syndrome (HAVS)

  • Nerve and joint damage

  • Long-term loss of grip strength or dexterity



What Are Anti-Impact and Anti-Vibration Gloves?


Anti-Impact Gloves

Anti-impact gloves feature reinforced protection zones, often made of thermoplastic rubber (TPR) or EVA foam, strategically placed over the fingers, knuckles, and back of the hand. These materials are engineered to:

  • Absorb and dissipate impact force

  • Prevent blunt trauma or crush injuries

  • Reduce the severity of accidental hits or compressions

Anti-Impact Gloves


Anti-Vibration Gloves

These gloves are specially designed to dampen tool vibrations. They typically use gel pads, foam inserts, or polymer linings that:

  • Minimize exposure to repetitive vibration

  • Protect against HAVS and carpal tunnel syndrome

  • Increase comfort during prolonged tool use

Anti-Vibration Gloves


By combining both features into one glove, LITA Safety offers comprehensive protection for workers who are exposed to both impact and vibration risks.



7 Reasons Why These Gloves Are a Workforce Essential


1. Prevention of Short-Term Injuries

Cuts, bruises, and fractures from falling tools or accidental impacts can be avoided with the right protection. Anti-impact gloves act as a buffer between the hand and the hazard.


2. Protection Against Long-Term Health Conditions

Anti-vibration gloves help prevent conditions like HAVS, white finger, and joint inflammation that result from prolonged exposure to vibrating tools.


3. Improved Grip and Dexterity

Modern anti-vibration/impact gloves are ergonomically designed to maintain flexibility and control — ensuring safety without compromising on performance.


4. Increased Productivity

Injuries lead to downtime. A safer workforce is a more confident, consistent, and productive workforce, with fewer interruptions and less absenteeism.


5. Compliance with Occupational Safety Standards

Using protective gloves can help your business meet important safety requirements such as:

  • OSHA standards

  • EN 388:2016 (Mechanical Risks)

  • ISO 10819 (Anti-Vibration Glove Requirements)


6. Reduced Compensation and Liability Costs

Fewer injuries mean lower medical bills, fewer insurance claims, and reduced risk of legal liability. The ROI on proper hand protection is clear and measurable.


7. Boosted Employee Morale and Retention

When workers feel that their safety is prioritized, it builds trust and loyalty. Providing high-quality PPE like LITA Safety gloves contributes to a culture of care and responsibility.
