The properties of latex disposable gloves
Latex is a material that can be harvested naturally from rubber trees and used for making single-use gloves - in contrast to nitrile or vinyl, which are made from artificial raw materials. Latex also has exceptional natural characteristics, so latex gloves fit the hand snugly and are extremely comfortable to wear. Consequently, 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 surgeries and in care facilities, and also to some degree in food production and processing (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: "thin"
The thin material is between 0.05 and a maximum of 0.09 mm thick and guarantees very good tactile sensitivity. The breakthrough time of this single-use product is longer than it would be in an ultra-thin disposable glove or finger cot made of the same material, and the product is also more reliable and durable.Quality of the latex disposable gloves
These latex disposable gloves from the Basic touch brand are "basic" quality. AMPri only sells products of either a very solid basic standard of quality, a more upscale "classic" quality or superior "premium" quality. The powder-free, non-sterile, disposable glove is ambidextrous (can be used on either hand). It does not have additional length, which means it does not provide splash protection. These disposable gloves are fully textured. Fully textured latex protective gloves have excellent non-slip properties and are perfect for working with slippery instruments or materials. "Extra grip" is a special attribute of these latex gloves. As category III personal protective equipment in line with the PPE Regulation ((EU) 2016/425), they protect the user from health hazards that are permanent or can lead to death. The fact that these single-use gloves are rated as a class I medical device means they pose minimal risk to wearers or patients, as the latex disposable gloves have no impact on the body when worn for short periods of time. These latex disposable gloves are only approved for non-sterile use. The AQL value represents the quality standard of a batch or lot (acceptable quality limit). For medical disposable gloves, this value for tightness may be a maximum of 1.5, whereby the following generally applies: the lower the AQL value, the more convincing the production. These latex disposable gloves meet the requirements with an AQL value of 1.5.We recommend latex protective gloves for these applications
These latex protective gloves are appropriate for handling food. They are especially intended for dry food and watery food. Protection from microorganisms is a main characteristic of these single-use gloves. The latex disposable gloves protect the wearer against viruses, bacteria and fungi. The latex disposable gloves provide chemical protection (chemical protection type B) against penetration in accordance with the EN 374 standard. EN 374 sets the minimum penetration time for a defined length of time and for a particular 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. In addition, the latex disposable gloves are airtight and watertight. We therefore recommend latex disposable gloves for these sectors: industry, hospitals, close-contact services, education, occupational safety, government authorities, the food industry and other medicine. If you have any questions about the possible uses of these latex disposable gloves or are not sure if they are right for your needs, please feel free to get in touch with us via the contact form!The advantages of latex
- Latex is a natural product of rubber trees; it is highly supple and strong.
- The tactile sensitivity is ideal.
- Latex disposable gloves and finger cots also protect the skin from numerous acids and alkalis.
Latex protective gloves: the downsides of latex
- As a raw material sourced from nature, latex is dependent on harvest yields and commodity prices. This can result in fluctuations in price.
- If worn frequently, latex is more likely to cause allergies because of the water-soluble proteins it contains. Latex disposable gloves are not recommended for allergy sufferers. The powder on powdered latex gloves is also potentially hazardous because it can aggravate the mucous membranes of the respiratory tract.
- Oils and solvents can easily permeate latex gloves and finger cots, so latex is not intended for handling such substances.
