The properties of vinyl disposable gloves
Vinyl or PVC (polyvinyl chloride) is a more affordable and hypo-allergenic alternative to latex and nitrile and is the first choice in situations when single-use gloves need to be changed often. Vinyl gloves are are safe to use with acids, alkalis and other chemicals that do not pose a major risk. Even atmospheric influences do not affect vinyl. Vinyl gloves are suitable for short periods of use in simple care duties, limited use in laboratories, the food industry and for cleaning work without contact with concentrated chemicals. Most vinyl gloves today do not contain the potentially hazardous phthalates diethylhexyl phthalate (DEHP) and diethylhexyl adipate (DEHA), which are plasticisers for PVC, and they generally do not contain any allergens, either.These vinyl gloves are DOP/DEHP free.
Vinyl gloves in material thickness: "thin"
Thanks to the thin material (0.05 mm to a maximum of 0.09 mm in thickness), this product boasts good tactile sensitivity, and the breakthrough time is higher than in an ultra-thin disposable glove or finger cot of identical material. This protective product is also more durable and longer-lasting than thinner disposables.Quality of the vinyl disposable gloves
These vinyl disposable gloves from the Eco-Plus brand are of "classic" quality. AMPri exclusively sells products of either a very consistent basic standard of quality, a more deluxe "classic" quality or top-notch "premium" quality. The powder-free, non-sterile, single-use glove is ambidextrous (can be used on the left or the right hand). It does not have additional length, which means it does not provide splash protection. "DOP/DEHP free" is a special attribute of these vinyl gloves. The Vinyl gloves deliver real added value because they protect against deadly hazards or irreversible adverse health effects, as they meet the requirements for category III personal protective equipment (PPE Regulation (EU) 2016/425). Among other things, they prevent harmful substances and compounds from coming into contact with the skin and offer protection against cuts. Vinyl protective gloves are categorised as class I medical devices. This class encompasses medical items or products that have no impact on the body and usually pose very little risk. These vinyl gloves are only intended 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 vinyl disposable gloves meet.Our recommendations for how vinyl gloves should be used
Vinyl 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 main characteristic of these disposable gloves. The vinyl protective gloves protect against viruses, bacteria and fungi. Chemical protection type B signifies that the vinyl protective gloves provide protection against permeation as defined by the important EN 374 standard. This defines the minimum penetration time 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. The gloves are also airtight and waterproof. We therefore recommend vinyl gloves for these sectors: close-contact services, industry and the food industry. If you have questions about the possible uses of these vinyl gloves or are not sure if they are the right solution for your requirements, please feel free to get in touch with us via the contact form!The benefits of vinyl in protecting the hands
- As a synthetic material, vinyl is free from possible allergens and other sensitisers.
- Vinyl feels very soft and comfortable against the skin, providing the highest level of comfort for the wearer.
- It affords dependable protection, even when it comes into contact with skin irritants, because vinyl provides strong resistance to acids, alkalis and other chemicals (except concentrated chemicals).
Vinyl protective gloves: the disadvantages of vinyl
- Compared to nitrile disposable gloves or latex single-use gloves, vinyl gloves do not fit the shape of the wearer's hand as neatly.
- Vinyl gloves are also considerably less elastic and have less wear resistance than latex or nitrile.
- In food processing, vinyl gloves can only be used within a limited scope, as they should not come into contact with oily or fatty foods. Single-use vinyl gloves may contain plasticisers that are fat-soluble. Plasticisers (phthalates) such as DEHP (diethylhexyl phthalate) or DEHA (diethylhexyl adipate) are a potential health hazard.
