Cut Resistant Gloves in Newcastle & Penrith | Industrial Safety Gloves Australia
Handling sharp materials, tools, and machinery requires reliable hand protection. At KIS Group, we supply high-quality cut resistant gloves in Newcastle and Penrith, designed to protect workers from cuts, abrasions, and punctures across high-risk industries.
Our range of cut proof gloves, anti-cut gloves, and puncture resistant gloves in Australia is trusted by professionals in construction, manufacturing, glass handling, and food processing. Whether you need lightweight dexterity or heavy-duty protection, we provide solutions that meet Australian safety standards and deliver long-lasting performance.
Understanding Cut Resistance Ratings (AS/NZS & EN 388)
In Australia, cut resistant gloves are tested and rated under AS/NZS 2161 and the international EN 388:2016 standard. Understanding these ratings helps you choose a glove that genuinely protects your workers.
Cut Level | Protection | Typical Applications |
Cut A / Level B | Light cut resistance | Light assembly, packaging |
Cut C / Level D | Moderate cut resistance | Sheet metal, stamping |
Cut E / Level F (Cut 5) | High cut resistance | Glass handling, automotive, food processing |
Cut F+ | Maximum cut resistance | Blade manufacturing, heavy glass work |
Why this matters for Australian businesses: Under the Work Health and Safety Act, employers must provide PPE appropriate to the level of risk. Using an under-rated glove is both a compliance issue and a safety liability.

Applications of Cut Resistant Gloves
Construction & Building
Construction workers need gloves that handle rebar, glass panels, and sharp metal edges. Look for Cut D–F rated gloves with reinforced palms and anti-vibration features. Recommended: Nexus GRIP A6/F TPR NBR Glove, G-Force Cut S Micro-Foam NBR.
Food Processing & Catering
Food-grade gloves must be detectable (blue), cut resistant, and easy to sanitise. Recommended: Food Grade Cut Resistant Blue.
Glass Handling
Glass cutting and installation require maximum cut protection with dexterity. Recommended: Force360 Graphex Premier Extended Cuff Cut 5, YSF Splendour Safeguard with Kevlar Blue Palm.
Manufacturing & Engineering
Assembly lines and stamping operations benefit from lightweight, form-fitting cut gloves that don't hinder fine motor work. Recommended: NeoFlex C5/C.
Cold Storage & Refrigeration
Thermally insulated cut gloves prevent both cold exposure and blade injuries. Recommended: Cut-resistant thermal glove.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between cut proof and cut resistant gloves?
No glove is truly "cut proof" — the correct term is cut resistant. All gloves we supply are rated to specific cut resistance levels under EN 388 / AS/NZS 2161, meaning they reduce (not eliminate) the risk of lacerations at defined force thresholds.
What are Cut 5 gloves used for?
Cut 5 (or Cut Level F under the new EN 388:2016 standard) gloves offer the highest cut protection and are typically used in glass handling, automotive stamping, meat processing, and blade manufacturing. Our Force360 Graphex Precision Cut 5 and Premier Extended Cuff are popular choices.
Are your gloves compliant with Australian safety standards?
Yes. Our cut resistant gloves meet or exceed EN 388:2016 requirements and are suitable for compliance with WHS regulations across Australia.
Do you supply cut resistant gloves in bulk?
Yes, we offer bulk ordering with fast delivery across Australia. Use the "Add to Quote" feature on any product or contact our team directly for volume pricing.
Can I get Kevlar glass handling gloves through KIS Group?
Yes — we stock several Kevlar-based options including the YSF Splendour Safeguard Glove with Kevlar Blue Palm, designed specifically for glass installation and handling work.
What's the best anti cut glove for construction?
For most construction applications, we recommend gloves rated Cut D or higher with textured coatings for grip on rough surfaces. The Nexus GRIP Elite Cut F and G-Force Cut S TPR Glove are strong choices.
