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 exceptional properties promise comfortable wear. Consequently, latex cannot yet be completely replaced, despite extensive research into substitute materials. Latex gloves are mainly used in clinics and health care facilities, doctors' or dentists' surgeries and nursing 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 cost-effective alternative to vinyl or nitrile.Latex disposable 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 resistant to punctures than a thin or ultra-thin disposable glove or finger cot of identical material. This single-use glove/finger cot is a great deal stronger and more durable than thinner products made of the same material.Quality of the latex protective gloves
These latex gloves from the Style by Med-Comfort brand are of "premium" quality. AMPri only offers 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 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 non-slip properties and are the right choice for working with slippery instruments or materials. "Extra grip" is a special feature of these latex gloves. The Latex disposable gloves offer real added value because they protect the user against potentially fatal hazards or irreversible damage to health, as they meet the definition of 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. In addition, the latex disposable gloves have a CE marking that labels them as a class I medical device. This category primarily encompasses products that have no impact on the human body and pose minimal risk. These latex protective gloves are only suitable for non-sterile use. The AQL (acceptable quality limit) is the highest allowed number of defective (permeable) individual samples in a batch or lot (performance level/AQL). For disposable medical gloves, an AQL level for impermeability of a maximum of 1.5 is required by the EN 455-1 standard - which the Latex gloves fulfil precisely.Our recommendations for how latex protective gloves should be used
These latex gloves are appropriate for handling food. They are particularly useful for food containing alcohol, greasy food, acidic food, dry food and watery food. The latex gloves offer protection from microorganisms and are consequently impervious to viruses, bacteria and fungi. Chemical protection type B signifies that the latex protective gloves provide protection against permeation in accordance with the crucial EN 374 standard. This defines the minimum penetration time for a certain number of chemicals from a list of defined 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 watertight. Consequently, we recommend latex protective gloves for the following sectors: government authorities, education, occupational safety, other medicine, hospitals, industry, close-contact services and the food industry.

- Latex is a natural product of rubber trees; it is highly stretchable and strong.
- Latex is pleasant to wear and does not affect tactile sensitivity.
- Latex disposable gloves and finger cots also keep the wearer safe from a wide range of acids and alkalis.
The disadvantages of latex
- As a natural material, latex is tied to harvest quantities 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 gloves are not recommended for people who suffer from allergies. The powder on powdered latex gloves is also a potential hazard because it can irritate the mucous membranes of the respiratory system.
- Latex disposable gloves and finger cots are not intended for handling oils or solvents, as these substances can rapidly penetrate the material.
