Elevating Food Safety Standards with Eagle Protect
Raising the Standards for Food Safety with Eagle
Did you know 50 to 90% of glove tears might go unnoticed?
Scary, right? But don’t worry—Eagle Protect has the solution! They are the ONLY company in the U.S. that tests their Delta Zero range of gloves for the highest food safety standards.
Eagle gloves undergo strict tests to check for germs, harmful chemicals, and overall performance. So, how can you be sure your gloves aren’t sneaking any hidden dangers into your food service facility? Just because gloves meet FDA rules doesn’t mean they’re safe! Plenty of low-quality gloves exist, and some imported ones could put your food products at risk. A recent article from the Journal of Food Protection (JFP) points out the need to use clean gloves!
But you’re in good hands! Eagle Protect knows how important food safety is.
They don’t just sell gloves; they also provide many resources to help keep your food service facility safe.
The Hidden Risks of Food Handling Gloves
Did you know that failure rates from 30% to 50% are not uncommon for gloves used in healthcare and food service?
That’s very high!
There is no requirement for FDA food-compliant gloves to be tested for holes – NONE. There is no (zero) AQL standard. The acceptable quality (AQL) limit represents the lowest tolerable process average, in percentage or ratio, considered acceptable, and it is closely related to the rejectable quality limit and level.
Here’s another surprising fact: 50 to 90% of glove holes go unnoticed when you’re using them! This can expose you and others to harmful germs without you even knowing.
So, what can you do?
Choose gloves you can trust! Don’t gamble with your food safety—make sure your gloves have been tested and approved. Stay safe and keep your foodservice facility healthy!
Make sure your gloves are clean—Eagle is offering to test them at cost.

Why does this matter?
The Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) state that gloves must be “intact, clean, and sanitary.” But here’s the twist—there are no specific FDA rules for checking these standards!
Don’t risk your food safety—make sure your gloves are clean! Get your gloves tested by Eagle Protect to guarantee they’re safe. Ready to protect your foodservice facility?
