The properties of latex disposable gloves
Latex is extracted from rubber trees, making it the only natural material used in manufacturing single-use gloves. Its outstanding characteristics promise comfortable wear. For this reason, latex cannot yet be completely replaced, despite extensive research into substitute materials. Latex gloves are often found in clinics and health care facilities, doctors' or dentists' surgeries and care homes, as well as in food production and processing (to a lesser extent, as cross-contamination can occur; nitrile is preferred here). Latex is an inexpensive alternative to vinyl or nitrile.Latex disposable gloves in material thickness: "medium thickness"
The material is of medium thickness, measuring in at between 0.09 mm and 0.16 mm. This makes it more resistant to punctures than a thin or ultra-thin disposable glove or finger cot of identical material. This single-use glove/finger cot is much sturdier and more durable than thinner products made of this material.Quality of the latex disposable gloves
These latex gloves from the Med-Comfort brand are "premium" quality. AMPri exclusively sells products of either a very high basic standard of quality, a more upscale "classic" quality or top-notch "premium" quality. The powder-free, non-sterile, single-use glove is ambidextrous (can be used on the left or the right hand). It does not have additional length, which means it does not provide splash protection. These disposable gloves are fully textured. Fully textured latex disposable gloves have exceptional slip-proof properties and are perfect for working with slippery tools or materials. "Extra grip" is a special feature of these latex protective gloves. The Latex disposable gloves offer significant added value in the sense that they protect against potentially fatal hazards or permanent adverse health effects, as they fulfil the definition of category III personal protective equipment (PPE Regulation (EU) 2016/425). Among other things, they protect the skin from harmful substances and compounds and offer protection from cuts. Latex protective gloves are categorised as class I medical devices. This class includes medical items or products that have no impact on the body and ordinarily pose very little risk. These latex disposable gloves are only designated for non-sterile use. The AQL (acceptable quality limit) is the highest allowed number of defective (permeable) individual samples in a batch or lot (performance level/AQL). For single-use medical gloves, an AQL level for impermeability not to exceed 1.5 is prescribed in the EN 455-1 standard - which the Latex protective gloves fulfil exactly.Our suggestions for how latex protective gloves should be used
These latex protective gloves are approved for handling food. They are especially intended for food containing alcohol, greasy food, acidic food, dry food and watery food. Protection from microorganisms is a primary characteristic of these disposable gloves. The latex protective gloves protect the wearer against viruses, bacteria and fungi. Chemical protection type B signifies that the latex disposable gloves provide protection against permeation in accordance with the crucial EN 374 standard. This lays out the minimum penetration time for a certain number of chemicals from a list of particular test chemicals. Type A = 6 test chemicals/30 minutes, Type B = 3 test chemicals/30 minutes, Type C = 1 test chemical/10 minutes. The gloves are also airtight and waterproof. We therefore recommend latex protective gloves for these sectors: occupational safety, government authorities, other medicine, close-contact services, hospitals, industry, education and the food industry. If you have any questions about the potential applications of these latex protective gloves or are not sure if they are the right choice for you, please do not hesitate to reach out to us via the contact form!The benefits of latex as a hand protection material
- Latex is a purely natural product and is incredibly supple.
- Latex allows for excellent tactile sensitivity.
- It also offers protection against a wide range of acids and alkalis.
The downsides of latex
- Unfortunately, volatile prices are always possible, as latex is a natural raw material dependent on harvest quantities and market prices.
- If used regularly, latex is more likely to cause allergies because of the water-soluble proteins it contains. Latex gloves are not recommended for allergy sufferers. The powder on powdered latex gloves is also a potential hazard because it can aggravate the mucous membranes of the respiratory tract.
- Latex protective gloves can be permeated by oil and solvents and, therefore, they are not approved for handling such substances.
