Every year in the UK there are an estimated 360,000 injuries caused by burns and scalds, of which 112,000 require A & E visits.

The most common causes are cups/mugs of hot drinks and kettles, followed by fires/heaters, wood burning stoves, and other kitchen related injuries such as cooker, saucepans, chip pans, baking tins, microwaves and hot dishes/plates. In addition, there are the "outdoor kitchen" injuries – those from the BBQs.

There are at least a further 250,000 people who visit GP surgeries for burns and scald injuries and an even larger figure that do have a burn or scald but treat themselves at home.

On the back of these startling statistics, silicone oven gloves has recognised that there is a need for a more thinner safety silicone glove in the home which not only provides complete safety but is far more versatile and easy to use when handling any hot items, either in or out of the kitchen. This new, multi purpose product is both safe and practical.

· It has fingers – to enable greater dexterity when handling items.
· It comes in different sizes which means a closer, safer fit.
· It has the most advanced textile in the world to protect from the heat.
