GLOVES: Nitrile, Vinyl, Latex, PVC

GLOVES: Nitrile, Vinyl, Latex, PVC

•  NITRILE
-  Tightly woven structure properties prevent water seepage and penetration providing a reliable barrier highly impermeable to liquids such as water, oils, and chemicals.
-  An ideal choice for handling potentially hazardous corrosive chemicals and suitable for most medical environments eliminating latex allergy reaction risks.

•  VINYL
-  A popular low-cost choice where they’re changed frequently and discarded.
-  Commonly used for food preparation in households, hospitality and workplaces for its oil and water resistance properties.
-  Wearing for long periods lessens resistance protection being less flexible than latex and nitrile types.

•  LATEX
-  Effectively protects hands and wrists against most substances: alcohols, body fluids, coarse materials and detergents but not recommended for use in food establishments. Discard after each use.
-  Powder used on gloves may cause irritation and increase allergic reaction or development.
-  Recommended Latex alternative is Nitrile gloves

•  PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride)
-  Provides good resistance protection to water, oils, fats and against many strong chemicals, acids, bases, alcohols, pesticides and caustics, but not as durable as nitrile.
-  Used extensively in industries like cosmetics, health care, agriculture.
-  Not recommended for ketones or many other types of solvents.
