Glove Dispensers
Glove dispensers hold disposable gloves and keep them within reach at prep stations, service lines, and dish rooms. Available in wall-mounted, magnetic, and countertop styles, these glove box holders support quick, easy access during foodservice operations, ensuring clean gloves are readily available for kitchen staff.
Glove Dispenser: What You Need to Know
A glove dispenser is designed to hold one or more boxes of disposable gloves, keeping them in a fixed, easily accessible location. This reduces clutter around prep counters, hand sinks, and cleaning stations. Because glove dispensers are available in several mounting styles, the right choice often comes down to placement, box count, and how frequently gloves are changed by staff during a shift.
Common Glove Dispenser Types
Wall-Mount Glove Dispensers
A glove dispenser wall mount is a common choice for areas with limited counter space. These units keep glove boxes accessible near handwashing sinks, prep tables, and dish rooms.
Magnetic Glove Box Holders
A magnetic glove box holder attaches to compatible metal equipment surfaces, such as refrigerators and metal shelves. These models work well in operations that want to avoid drilling into walls and prefer glove dispensers attach to equipment, enabling dispensers to be moved around as needed.
Single, Double, and Triple Box Holders
Some glove dispensers hold one box, while others hold two or three boxes. Multi-box units are helpful when staff members need access to multiple glove sizes or materials at the same station.
