Superior Glove is one of North America's leading manufacturers and suppliers of work gloves. A respected source for thousands of customers, Superior Glove has been in business since 1910, when we began making gloves for retail stores. By 1960 the company had changed over to produce industrial gloves, specifically for steel mills, the welding trade, car manufacturing and its feeder plants. To enhance our competitiveness we opened a tannery, a spinning mill and a knitting operation. This vertical integration allowed us to tackle and solve problems more efficiently. Moreover, we became very competitive and a low-cost producer on many styles of gloves. Only a very few manufacturers worldwide are in this cost-effective league. Our main competitive advantages are: 1. We stock the widest selection of work gloves for all applications, 3500 styles and still expanding. 2. A consistent high-quality product. 3. Cost-effective producer delivering the best dollar value. 4. 94% of all orders shipped complete the same day. Through our four manufacturing facilities (two in Canada, and two in China), we are able to serve customers across Canada, the United States and Europe. We have a 130,000 sq. ft. facility in Acton, Ontario; a 60,000 sq. ft. plant in Point Leamington, Newfoundland; and also two warehouses in Buffalo, New York and Cleveland, Ohio. We are continuing to develop new and unique safety gloves to add to our existing lineup of over 3500 styles of work gloves. Workers’ hands in every imaginable industry and job application are protected by “Superior” gloves.
