Durable butyl hazmat gloves are an absolute necessity for any complete PPE kit. Our protective CBRN Hazmat Gloves help meet that need for numerous law enforcement agencies, militaries, and civilians from all over the world.
Unlike other hazmat gloves, these CBRN protective gloves come with a number of mobility-enhancing features that improve the user’s ability to manipulate firearms, operate machinery, and navigate their environment while wearing full-body PPE.
They’re designed to integrate seamlessly with a wide range of hazmat suits using Kappler Chemtape to seal the junctions. And they’ve been extensively tested to meet a variety of different standards (see below).
Our Protective CBRN Hazmat Gloves also have a substantially longer shelf life than most competitors. When kept in their original packaging they can last up to 15 years and still work perfectly. As a result, you get better value and easier logistics in the long-run.

MIRA Safety Protective CBRN Hazmat Gloves (like all butyl rubber gloves) should be stored in their original packaging in a dark room at a temperature between 41°F and 77°F with a relative humidity of less than 75%. In these conditions, these hazmat gloves can be stored for 15 years. Manufacturer advises these gloves can be stored at temperature extremes of -50°C to 60°C (-58°F to 140°F) if needed. These hazmat gloves are 100% butyl rubber and should be handled as such, so inspect for cracking especially in flexion spots after use.
