FAQ - SweatGuard Gloves

After extensive collaboration with Swedish institutions, we developed a biodegradable glove with advanced sweat-wicking technology to keep hands dry. Made from sustainable wood cellulose, it lasts 3 to 12 months and reduces irritation, especially for those with hand eczema. Used by professionals in sports and other demanding fields.

Moisture buildup in gloves can result in both short- and long-term skin issues. More info about the consequences of moisture buildup can be found under 'News (click here)' or 'About Us (click here)'.

Unlike traditional alternatives, keeps moisture away and wicks moisture away from the skin layer—regardless of how long you work, train, or sleep.

The gloves are priced higher than traditional alternatives because they use advanced anti-sweat technology to keep moisture away from the skin for extended periods. This is important, as moisture can aggravate skin issues like dryness, redness, irritation, and cracks. Traditional liners tend to absorb moisture, leading to wet gloves that can worsen skin conditions. These gloves are washable and reusable, lasting 3 to 12 months.

No, these gloves are not exclusively for individuals with dry and sensitive hands. They offer sweat and irritation protection for all users and can be comfortably worn under various glove types, including leather, work, surgical, rubber, household, and disposable gloves. This versatility makes them suitable for a wide range of activities and preferences.

Machine wash the liner at up to 60 degrees. For a fresh feel, some users prefer to hand wash them every few days to maintain their condition.

Hand-Related Issues: Everything You Need to Know

Moisture buildup on the hands can have several negative effects, particularly for individuals with skin conditions such as eczema. Continuous exposure to wet conditions can weaken the skin’s natural barrier, leaving it prone to irritation and infection. This breakdown increases the risk of maceration, a condition where the skin becomes overly soft and more susceptible to damage. Research published in the Journal of Dermatology highlights that prolonged moisture exposure can worsen issues like eczema, encouraging bacterial and fungal growth, and often requiring more intensive treatments.
