Disposable gloves are produced from materials like polythene, latex, vinyl and nitrile. 

 

Latex is the first and most used material in the glove industry. Latex is a relatively strong, able to resist damage such as tears or punctures and flexible material. Latex gloves allow for high dexterity in various tasks such as surgery. One of the most considerable problems when talking about the disposable glove material is an increasing frequency of many people being allergic to latex. When considering of buying latex gloves it is important ensure that the intended user of the gloves does not suffer from a latex allergy. 

 

Vinyl disposable gloves provide practical solution to allergy problems that arise from latex gloves, but offer less protection and resistance than the latex gloves and are looser fitting and thus reducing dexterity. They are cheaper so if considering disposable gloves, but not needing the high levels of protection and dexterity that latex allows, would be much better off buying vinyl disposable gloves. 

Nitrile disposable gloves are considered of being made from the best material to make disposable gloves from available today. It has all the great qualities of the latex glove: strength and dexterity, with no drawback of latex allergies. However, nitrile gloves are usually more expensive than latex and vinyl. 

 

Disposable gloves can be powdered to ease the application. However, powder has been linked to allergic reactions to the gloves. The development of gloves began to change to allow powder free disposable gloves, making them easier to apply and less likely to cause allergies. However, this in turn made powder-free disposable gloves more expensive. 

All disposable gloves are available to buy in various sizes - extra large, large, medium and small – as it is one of the most important features to consider, when buying the disposable gloves. The right size of the glove is crucial for ensuring maximum dexterity and protection. 

 

There is a variety of tight fit latex, vinyl and nitrile disposable gloves available in various sizes, featuring high dexterity and roll-back prevention. You can also choose from a selection of embossed polythene disposable gloves that are latex and powder free. The polythene gloves are an economical alternative to latex, nitrile and vinyl gloves for the food industry. Made from polyethylene (PE) these gloves are comfortable and lightweight, they are easy to put on and take of and provide good dexterity for the wearer. 

 

All disposable gloves come in packs of 100, 200 or 250. These sealed cardboard boxes are perfect for hygienic storage of the gloves and also can be used as open-top or open-side glove dispensers. 

 

Disposable gloves have become a crucial part of health and sanitation both in the workplace and at home, with many industries (particularly the food service industry) having laws in place requiring the usage of disposable gloves.
