Atlantic Safety Company

About Atlantic Safety Products

Atlantic Safety Products has spent more than 35 years building a reputation as one of the most trusted names in professional hand protection. Disposable nitrile gloves are not just one part of what this company does — they are the entire focus. Founded in the summer of 1987 by David Dillon Sr. out of Pittsfield, New Hampshire, the company set out to address a surging demand for high-quality disposable gloves across a range of demanding industries.

What began as a small, family-owned operation quickly gained traction. The company's early growth was fueled by contracts to supply some of the nation's largest medical institutions, establishing a reputation for consistency and quality that has carried forward through the decades. Today, the second generation of Dillons — David Dillon Jr. as CEO and Robert Dillon as VP of Sales — leads the company with a clear eye on the future while honoring the craftsmanship and reliability the brand was built on.

Innovation Built for Working Hands

A major milestone in Atlantic Safety Products' story came with the introduction of the Black Lightning glove line, which helped redefine expectations for nitrile gloves in the automotive industry. The Black Lightning series is widely recognized among technicians and shop professionals as one of the strongest 6-mil black nitrile gloves available, featuring a unique pH formulation designed to be gentler on skin during extended wear.

From the high-visibility Orange Lightning series to the extended-cuff Lightning Storm gloves and the skin-soothing Aloe Power line, Atlantic Safety Products has consistently pushed the boundaries of what a disposable glove can do. Their gloves are engineered to deliver barrier protection, grip, and comfort in environments where hands are exposed to chemicals, grease, and other workplace hazards — all without the risk of latex allergy concerns, since every product is latex-free and powder-free.
