TPE gloves are food grade.

TPE (thermoplastic elastomer) gloves are widely regarded as a safe and harmless food contact grade product due to their excellent physical and mechanical properties and the processability of thermoplastic plastics. There are mainly two types of disposable TPE gloves on the market: medical and kitchen. Among them, most disposable TPE gloves for kitchen use are food grade and suitable for handling food. Although medical TPE gloves are also food grade, some surfaces may have added some talcum powder, so it is not recommended to use medical TPE gloves to handle food. The material of TPE gloves has good tactile sensation, adjustable physical properties, and meets environmental protection requirements. It is non-toxic, odorless, and harmless, and also has excellent heat resistance, low temperature resistance, general chemical resistance, and electrical insulation. These characteristics make TPE gloves a suitable material for food processing, providing effective protection and ensuring food safety for both household and industrial use.
