Rubber Mats & Rubber Gloves
Trusted Rubber Mats & Rubber Gloves Manufacturer in Kenya for Safer Electrical Work
Viraatech International is a dependable Rubber Mats & Rubber Gloves manufacturer in Kenya, supplying insulating rubber matting and electrical hand-protection gloves that are built to keep utility staff, substation crews, and industrial electricians safe on the job. Our mats and gloves are manufactured to provide dependable dielectric protection without compromising on comfort, flexibility, or day-to-day durability.
As a recognised name in electrical infrastructure and safety equipment in Kenya, we supply rubber mats and gloves that meet recognised insulation and mechanical-strength benchmarks, so they hold up in switchrooms, substations, control panels, and live-line utility work. Alongside Rubber Mats & Rubber Gloves, we also supply Porcelain/Polymer Insulators, Pole Line Hardware, and a full range of substation and transmission line accessories — giving our clients a single, reliable source for power infrastructure and safety gear alike.
What Are Rubber Mats and Rubber Gloves?
In any environment where electricity is generated, switched, or distributed, the people working closest to the equipment need a barrier between themselves and the current. Insulating rubber mats and rubber gloves form that barrier. Mats are laid on floors in front of switchboards, panels, and substations to insulate workers from earth, while gloves insulate the hands during live or near-live electrical work. Both are everyday safety essentials, not optional extras, in any facility that runs on high or medium voltage.
Rubber Mats
Our electrical insulating rubber mats are manufactured from high-grade dielectric rubber compounds designed to resist current flow even under demanding voltage conditions. They are laid down in front of distribution boards, switchgear, transformers, and control panels, forming a non-conductive standing surface for technicians and operators.
Each mat is built with a textured, anti-slip top surface for safe footing and a smooth underside for stable floor contact. Because they double as a barrier against accidental floor-level contact with live equipment, they are a standard fitting in substations, switchrooms, generator rooms, and panel-board areas across Kenya.
Rubber Gloves
Insulating rubber gloves are the hand-level equivalent of the protection our mats provide on the floor. Where mats stop current from passing through the ground, gloves stop it from passing through the hands — which matters far more directly when a technician is working on or near energised conductors, switchgear, or terminals.
Our gloves are manufactured in different voltage classes to suit varying levels of electrical risk, from routine low-voltage panel work to higher-voltage live-line tasks. They are made to stay flexible and grip-friendly, because a glove that’s stiff or bulky tends to get set aside on site — and that defeats the purpose of wearing it at all.
Features of Our Rubber Mats & Rubber Gloves
Every batch we manufacture is built around a few non-negotiables.
High Dielectric Strength
Both mats and gloves are formulated to resist current flow reliably at their rated voltage class, reducing the risk of electric shock during routine and emergency operations.
Anti-Slip, Durable Construction
Our mats carry a ribbed or chequered top surface that holds its grip even in slightly dusty or damp switchroom conditions, and the rubber compound resists cracking and ageing over years of use.
Flexible, Comfortable Fit
Gloves are designed to bend and grip naturally, so technicians can work with tools and equipment without the glove fighting them at every turn.
Resistance to Oil, Heat & Abrasion
Our rubber compounds are formulated to resist minor oil exposure, surface abrasion, and moderate heat — conditions that are common around panels, generators, and substation floors.
Available in Multiple Voltage Classes
From low-voltage panel work to higher-voltage live-line tasks, we manufacture mats and gloves across different thickness and voltage ratings to match the actual risk on site.
Low Maintenance, Long Service Life
With basic care — clean storage, regular visual inspection, and avoiding sharp or rough contact — our mats and gloves hold their insulating properties over an extended service life.
Pole Line Hardware & Accessories
Cross arms, brace irons, D-irons, pole bands, and all structural mounting hardware for overhead distribution and transmission poles.
Clamps & Connectors
Dead-end, suspension, wedge, and automatic dead-end clamps compatible with ACSR, AAC, and ABC conductors — rated for full mechanical and electrical load.
Conductor & Earthwire Accessories
Earth wire clamps, vibration dampers, conductor spacers, and all line accessories for overhead conductor management and protection.
Insulator & Hardware Fittings
Insulator caps, pins, clevis links, socket eyes, ball hooks, and complete fitting sets for disc, pin, and post insulators across HT and LT lines.
AB Cable Accessories
Suspension clamps, dead-end clamps, piercing connectors, service tees, and anchor brackets for aerial bundled cable (ABC) systems.
H.T. Switches, Fuses & Accessories

Benefits of Choosing Our Rubber Mats & Rubber Gloves in Kenya
Kenya’s substations, industrial plants, and utility networks operate in conditions that range from dusty inland sites to humid coastal facilities, and safety equipment needs to perform reliably across all of them.
Worker Safety
Properly rated mats and gloves are the most direct line of defence against electric shock for anyone working on or near live equipment.
Regulatory & Site Compliance
Insulating mats and gloves are a standard requirement in substation, switchroom, and electrical maintenance safety protocols, helping facilities meet internal and external safety audits.
Reduced Downtime from Incidents
Fewer shock-related incidents mean fewer unplanned stoppages, investigations, and lost working hours on site.
Cost-Effective Protection
Compared to the cost of an electrical accident — in both human and financial terms — quality rubber mats and gloves are a small, sensible investment.
Reliable Local Supply
As a Rubber Mats & Rubber Gloves manufacturer in Kenya, we keep stock and supply lines close to where our clients actually operate, so replacements and bulk orders don’t get held up.
