KOMODO Needle Stick

KOMODO Needle Stick Gloves

The Komodo Needle‑Stick Gloves are engineered for Australians working with hypodermic needles or sharps – from healthcare professionals and first responders to sanitation and waste‑management crews. Adelaide‑tested and certified, these gloves utilise three interconnected layers of Dragon Skin® armour steel‑hex plating in the palm to resist penetration from 21‑gauge needles up to 6 Nm of force . The breathable natural‑rubber and wrinkle‑grip back allows maximum hand flexibility, ensuring fine motor skills aren’t compromised during needle collection or handling tasks.

Lightweight, flexible and less cumbersome than traditional puncture‑resistant gloves, Komodo delivers enhanced protection at Australia‑approved standards (ASTM F2878‑10 and EN388:2016 4544BX) . Ideal as a final risk‑control layer, these gloves support safety‑first protocols when stored needles or medical waste pose infection or injury threats.
