The properties of latex disposable gloves
Latex protective gloves and finger cots are - in contrast to vinyl or nitrile - completely natural products. This is because the latex used in single-use gloves is obtained directly from rubber trees. Thanks to its exceptional physical properties and comfortable fit, there is presently no true substitute for natural latex. Consequently, the main areas of application for disposable latex gloves include clinics and health care facilities, doctors' or dentists' surgeries and nursing homes, as well as food production and processing facilities (to a lesser extent, as cross-contamination can occur; nitrile is preferable here). Latex is a more affordable alternative to vinyl or nitrile.Latex gloves in material thickness: "medium thickness"
The material is slightly 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 significantly sturdier and more durable than thinner items made of this material.Quality of the latex gloves
These latex disposable gloves from the Med-Comfort brand are "premium" quality. AMPri exclusively offers products of either a very solid basic standard of quality, a more upscale "classic" quality or impressive "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 offer splash protection. These disposable gloves are fully textured. Fully textured latex disposable gloves have first-rate non-slip properties and are the right choice for working with slippery instruments or materials. This product features the special attribute "extra grip". As category III personal protective equipment in accordance with the PPE Regulation ((EU) 2016/425), they protect against health hazards that are irreversible or potentially fatal. In addition, the latex disposable gloves have a CE marking labelling them as a class I medical device. This classification primarily includes products that have no impact on the human body and pose minimal risk. These latex gloves are only suitable for non-sterile use. 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 gloves meet.Our recommendations for how latex disposable gloves should be used
These latex protective gloves are appropriate for handling food. They are especially useful for acidic food, dry food and watery food. Protection from microorganisms is a primary feature of these single-use gloves. The latex disposable gloves protect the wearer against viruses, bacteria and fungi. The latex 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. Additionally, the latex gloves are airtight and waterproof. Consequently, we recommend latex disposable gloves for the following sectors: other medicine, hospitals, industry, close-contact services, the food industry, education, government authorities and occupational safety. If you have any questions about the possible uses of these latex disposable gloves or are wondering if they are right for your needs, please feel free to contact us via the contact form!The advantages of latex
- The biggest advantage of natural latex as a material is its incredible elasticity and tear resistance.
- Latex is pleasant to wear and has almost no noticeable impact on tactile sensitivity.
- It also keeps the skin safe from numerous acids and alkalis.
The disadvantages of latex in protecting the hands
- Crop yields and raw material prices have an immediate impact on the market price of latex, which can be variable and volatile as a result.
- 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 potentially hazardous because it can irritate the mucous membranes of the respiratory tract.
- Oils and solvents can quickly permeate latex protective gloves and finger cots, so latex is not approved for handling these substances.
