The following clothing must be used in order to protect the skin:
-
Nitrile rubber gloves without moisture absorbing lining which are resistant to chemicals used in agriculture and horticulture. The gloves must be long enough to also protect the arms. Replace them when obviously contaminated, but in any case after five times of use. When gloves are not lined, we advise you to rub talcum powder into hands.
-
Waterproof rubber or neoprene boots which are resistant to chemicals
-
Moisture-proof overall with hood which is resistant to chemicals. The overall must fall over the gloves and boots.

-
A moisture-proof apron protects the clothing so that you remain clean in the tractor cab during spraying.
-
A full facial mask for protection of the face.
Take care to clean the clothing after use. Never carry on working with wet spraying clothing, as this will cause extra contact with the skin. Be extra careful when your skin is damaged and always wash your hands, underarms and wrists with soap and water when you have used crop protection chemicals. After that, you can wash your face.
