The properties of latex disposable gloves
Latex is obtained from rubber trees, making it the only natural material used in manufacturing single-use gloves. Its excellent properties guarantee comfortable wear. Consequently, latex cannot yet be fully replaced, despite extensive research into alternative 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 limited extent, as cross-contamination can occur; nitrile is preferable here). Latex is an inexpensive alternative to vinyl or nitrile.Latex disposable gloves in material thickness: "medium thickness"
The material is somewhat thicker - this single-use product is between 0.09 mm and 0.16 mm thick (medium thickness), making it more puncture-resistant than a thin or ultra-thin disposable glove or finger cot. This disposable glove/finger cot is much stronger and harder-wearing than thinner items composed of this material.Quality of the latex protective gloves
These latex protective gloves from the Eco-Plus brand are of "classic" quality. AMPri only 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, disposable glove is ambidextrous (can be worn on the left or the right hand). It has no extra length, which means it does not provide splash protection. The latex protective gloves gloves are fingertip textured, so they offer a significantly more effective grip than non-textured single-use gloves. The Latex protective gloves offer significant added value because they protect the user against deadly hazards or irreversible damage to health, as they fulfil the requirements for category III personal protective equipment (PPE Regulation (EU) 2016/425). Among other things, they protect the skin from hazardous substances and compounds and offer protection from cuts. Latex gloves are categorised as class I medical devices. This class comprises medical items or products that have no impact on the body and generally pose minimal risk. These latex protective gloves are only suitable for non-sterile applications. The AQL (acceptable quality limit) is the maximum permitted number of faulty (permeable) individual samples in a batch or lot (performance level/AQL). For disposable medical gloves, an AQL level for impermeability that does not exceed 1.5 is stipulated by the EN 455-1 standard - which the Latex gloves adhere to precisely.Our suggestions for how latex gloves should be used
These latex gloves are approved for handling food. They are especially useful for dry food and watery food. The latex protective gloves offer protection from microorganisms, meaning that they are impervious to viruses, bacteria and fungi. Chemical protection type B indicates that the latex gloves provide protection against penetration according to the crucial EN 374 standard. It defines the minimum penetration time for a specific 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. Consequently, we recommend latex protective gloves for the following sectors: hospitals, the food industry, government authorities, occupational safety, education, close-contact services, industry and other medicine.

- Latex is a purely natural product and is highly stretchable.
- The tactile sensitivity is ideal.
- Latex protective gloves and finger cots are resistant to many acids and alkalis.
Latex protective gloves: 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 frequently, latex is more likely to trigger allergies because of the water-soluble proteins it contains. Latex protective gloves are not recommended for people with allergies. The powder on powdered latex gloves is also a potential hazard because it can aggravate the mucous membranes of the respiratory tract.
- Oils and solvents can rapidly penetrate latex gloves and finger cots, which is why latex is not approved for handling these substances.
