Animal Handling & Restraints

To safeguard personnel while handling animals, LOMIR manufactures a complete range of handling equipment designed and fabricated for flexibility, accurate touch control, comfort and safety during long periods of wear.

LOMIR small animal handling glovesLOMIR small animal handling gloves are a unique and innovative integration of comfort and technology. Spun ceramic material offers three times more slash resistance than Kevlar®. These are a light weight glove yet strong and comfortable.

Kevlar Arm ProtectorsKevlar® Arm Protectors - Arm protectors made from 100% fine-knit Kevlar® with sewn-in reinforcement. Designed to be worn either on their own or beneath a pair of animal handling gloves.

LOMIR'S capture netsLOMIR'S capture nets are designed to restrain animals while protecting both the subject and the handler. They are suitable for both new and old world primates. The net and pole are available in multiple combinations to match the size, weight and strength of the subject. Replacement nets are also available. As with all LOMIR'S products, custom specifications are also undertaken.

SnugglesSmall animals are prone to stress and require extra care in handling. Mechanical restraints frequently require the involvement of two personnel: one to restrain and one to perform. The resulting stress and discomfort for the subject can often jeopardize the efficiency of the procedure.

The "SNUGGLE FAMILY" uses the principle of a cocoon rather than a rigid structure for immobilization. The multiple flaps perform two functions: They are adjustable around the subject for effective yet comfortable restraint, and positioned, or left open for access depending on the procedure. Both restraint and procedure can be carried out by one handler.
