The properties of latex disposable gloves
Latex is a substance that can be obtained naturally from rubber trees and used for manufacturing disposable gloves - in contrast to nitrile or vinyl, which are made from artificial raw materials. Latex also has excellent natural properties, so latex gloves fit the hand smoothly and are very comfortable to wear. As a result, these single-use gloves (and finger cots) are used in sectors where latex gloves are worn for many processes and daily tasks, such as in clinics and health care facilities, in doctor's or dentist's offices and in care homes, and also to a certain degree in food production and processing (to a limited extent, as cross-contamination can occur; nitrile is preferred here). Latex is an inexpensive alternative to vinyl or nitrile.Latex protective 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 puncture-resistant than a thin or ultra-thin disposable glove or finger cot of similar material. This single-use glove/finger cot is significantly sturdier and harder-wearing than thinner products made of this material.Quality of the latex protective gloves
These latex gloves from the Basic-Plus brand are of "basic" quality. AMPri exclusively 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, single-use glove is ambidextrous (can be used on the left or the right hand). It is not extra-long, which means it does not offer splash protection. The latex protective gloves gloves are fully textured, so they deliver a much more effective grip than other non-textured or partially textured disposable gloves. As category III personal protective equipment in accordance with the PPE Regulation ((EU) 2016/425), they keep the user safe from health risks that are irreversible or can lead to death. In addition, the latex protective gloves have a CE marking indicating that they are a class I medical device. This category primarily comprises products that have no effect on the human body and pose very little risk. The latex protective gloves are non-sterile; consequently, they are not intended for use in sterile applications. The AQL (acceptable quality limit) is the largest permitted number of faulty (leaky) individual samples in a batch or lot (performance level/AQL). For disposable medical gloves, an AQL level for impermeability not to exceed 1.5 is stipulated by the EN 455-1 standard - which the Latex protective gloves adhere to exactly.We recommend latex disposable gloves for the following applications
Latex gloves are particularly appropriate for acidic food, dry food and watery food and, consequently, are approved for food handling in general. Protection from microorganisms is a primary feature of these single-use gloves. The latex disposable gloves protect against viruses, bacteria and fungi. Chemical protection type B indicates that the latex protective gloves provide protection from penetration as defined by the crucial EN 374 standard. This states the minimum penetration time for a certain 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. The gloves are also airtight and waterproof. We therefore recommend latex disposable gloves for these sectors: occupational safety, hospitals, close-contact services, industry, government authorities, education, the food industry and other medicine.

- Latex is an entirely natural product and is highly flexible.
- The tactile sensitivity is ideal.
- Latex disposable gloves and finger cots are impervious to a wide range of acids and alkalis.
Latex gloves: the disadvantages of latex
- Unfortunately, fluctuations in price are always possible, as latex is a natural raw material that depends on harvest quantities and market prices.
- If worn regularly, latex is more likely to cause allergies because of the water-soluble proteins it contains. Latex protective gloves are not recommended for allergy sufferers. The powder on powdered latex gloves is also a risk because it can irritate the mucous membranes of the respiratory system.
- Oils and solvents can immediately penetrate latex protective gloves and finger cots, which is why latex should not be used for handling such substances.
