We’ve worked and grown since 2006 to proudly supply 80% of New Zealand’s globally recognized primary food industry as well as expanded to the US. We supply some of the largest food and meat processors in both countries and are the only disposable glove and clothing supplier to be B Corp™ and Child Labor Free** certified. Protecting both workers and food products is something we are pretty darn good at.
Over the years we’ve worked with our customers to design protective clothing customized to the specific needs of food and meat processing. Here’s a snapshot of our line of disposable food safe clothing.

PROTECTIVE HEADWEAR
-

- Balaclavas: Headwear that provides full head coverage for warmth and cleanliness. Balaclavas are available in two styles, a lightweight, breathable single-use or a warmer, but breathable washable design.
The USDA’s sanitation standards also highlight the importance of cleanliness, stating: “All persons working in contact with product, food-contact surfaces, and product-packaging materials must adhere to hygienic practices while on duty to prevent adulteration of product.” This is what Eagle’s line of disposable protective clothing is designed to achieve—ensuring that workers maintain hygienic standards while minimizing contamination risks in high-demand environments.
Our team of experts is here to discuss how Eagle food safe disposable clothing can strengthen your facility’s food safety and cleanliness. Eagle also offers a full line of food safe disposable gloves designed for food and meat processing.
