The aquaculture and fishing industry is physically demanding and inherently hazardous, exposing workers to slippery surfaces, sharp tools, fish spines, extreme temperatures, and prolonged exposure to water. From fish farming and net handling to processing seafood, workers require robust and reliable hand protection to ensure safety, efficiency, and comfort. The right gloves not only protect against cuts, infections, and cold but also improve grip and durability in wet and challenging environments.
At Qingdao Snell Protective Products Co., Ltd., we offer a wide range of safety gloves specifically designed to address the needs of aquaculture and fishing professionals. Our gloves provide superior protection, grip, and comfort, ensuring productivity and safety across various operations in the industry.
Challenges In Aquaculture & Fishing
Working in aquaculture and fishing environments presents a unique set of challenges. Below are the key hazards and risks faced by workers in this industry:
- Cuts and Punctures
Handling fish, sharp tools, hooks, or nets can result in cuts, punctures, and injuries from fish spines or sharp scales. - Slippery and Wet Conditions
Constant exposure to water, fish slime, and wet equipment creates slippery surfaces, increasing the risk of accidents without proper grip. - Cold and Extreme Weather
Workers often operate in cold climates or icy waters, making gloves with thermal insulation essential for maintaining hand warmth and flexibility. - Infection and Contamination
Handling fish or aquatic organisms exposes workers to bacteria, parasites, and infections, requiring gloves that provide hygiene and protection. - Chemical Exposure
Workers may handle cleaning agents, disinfectants, or chemicals used in aquaculture farming, necessitating gloves resistant to chemicals. - Abrasion and Wear
Handling ropes, nets, and fish processing tasks involves abrasive materials, requiring gloves that resist wear and tear. - Dexterity for Precision Tasks
Certain tasks, such as baiting hooks, repairing nets, or processing seafood, require gloves that allow for high dexterity and tactile sensitivity. - Extended Wear Comfort
Long working hours and repetitive tasks demand gloves that are lightweight, breathable, and ergonomically designed to reduce hand fatigue.
