01034-L Latex gloves, L, white, (latex paint)
We tend to recommend white and blue latex protective gloves for government authorities, close-contact services, industry, occupational safety, the food industry, education, hospitals and other medicine. For the food industry, we particularly recommend blue, food-grade latex protective gloves, as whole latex protective gloves or sections of latex protective gloves are easy to find quickly.
The properties of latex disposable gloves
Latex is extracted from rubber trees, making it the only natural material used in producing single-use gloves. Its excellent characteristics guarantee comfortable wear. For this reason, latex cannot yet be completely replaced, despite extensive research into alternative materials. Latex gloves are primarily used 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 a more affordable alternative to vinyl or nitrile.Latex protective gloves in material thickness: "medium thickness"
With a material thickness between 0.09 mm and 0.16 mm, a finger cot or single-use glove of medium thickness is more puncture-resistant than a thin or ultra-thin disposable glove or finger cot of similar material. This disposable glove/finger cot is considerably sturdier and more durable than thinner items composed of this material.Quality of the latex gloves
These latex gloves from the Med-Comfort brand are of "premium" quality. AMPri only sells products of either a very high basic standard of quality, a more upscale "classic" quality or superior "premium" quality. The powder-free, non-sterile, disposable glove is ambidextrous (can be worn on either hand). It is not extra-long, which means it does not provide splash protection. These single-use gloves are fully textured. Fully textured latex disposable gloves have first-rate slip-proof properties and are the right choice for working with slippery instruments or materials. This product features the special characteristic "extra grip". The Latex gloves deliver significant added value because they protect against deadly hazards or permanent damage to health, as they meet the requirements for category III personal protective equipment (PPE Regulation (EU) 2016/425). Among other things, they prevent hazardous substances and compounds from coming into contact with the skin and offer protection from cuts. Medical devices are categorised in terms of the potential risk they pose to the patient. Class I encompasses products that pose little or no risk. And exactly those criteria are fulfilled by these latex gloves. These latex disposable gloves are only approved for non-sterile applications. The production quality can be determined by the AQL value, i.e. the acceptable quality level. For disposable medical gloves, the AQL is 1.5 or less, which is exactly what these latex disposable gloves meet.We recommend latex gloves for these applications
Latex disposable gloves are especially suitable for food containing alcohol, greasy food, acidic food, dry food and watery food and, consequently, are intended for food handling in general. The latex protective gloves offer protection from microorganisms and are therefore impervious to viruses, bacteria and fungi. The latex disposable gloves provide chemical protection (chemical protection type B) against penetration in line with the EN 374 standard. EN 374 sets the minimum penetration time for a defined period of time and for a specific number of chemicals from a list of specified test chemicals. Type A = 6 test chemicals/30 minutes, Type B = 3 test chemicals/30 minutes, Type C = 1 test chemical/10 minutes. What's more, the latex disposable gloves are airtight and watertight. We therefore recommend latex disposable gloves for the following sectors: government authorities, close-contact services, industry, occupational safety, the food industry, education, hospitals and other medicine. If you have any questions about the possible uses of these latex disposable gloves or are unsure if they are the right choice for you, please feel free to get in touch with us via the contact form!The benefits of latex
- The biggest advantage of natural latex as a material is its incredible elasticity and tear resistance.
- Latex is pleasant to wear and does not affect tactile sensitivity.
- Latex disposable gloves and finger cots are resistant to a broad range of acids and alkalis.
The disadvantages of latex as a hand protection material
- Unfortunately, volatile prices cannot be ruled out, as latex is a natural raw material that is tied to harvest quantities and market prices.
- If used frequently, latex is more likely to cause allergies because of the water-soluble proteins it contains. Latex gloves are not recommended for people who suffer from allergies. The powder on powdered latex gloves is also potentially hazardous because it can irritate the mucous membranes of the respiratory system.
- Oils and solvents can quickly penetrate latex protective gloves and finger cots, which is why latex is not approved for handling such substances.
