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.
