01045-XL Latex protective gloves, XL, red
There are countless potential applications for latex gloves (red). From the medical sector to the cosmetics counter, red latex gloves are in demand everywhere thanks to their colour, and they easily complement the colour scheme of the building. We recommend latex protective gloves in size XL (red) especially for government authorities, occupational safety, education, other medicine, industry, close-contact services, hospitals and the food industry.
The properties of latex disposable gloves
Latex 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 harvested directly from rubber trees. Thanks to its excellent physical properties and comfortable fit, there is presently no real substitute for natural latex. Consequently, the primary 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 limited extent, as cross-contamination can occur; nitrile is preferable here). Latex is a more affordable alternative to vinyl or nitrile.Latex disposable gloves in material thickness: "strong"
Thanks to the very thick material, which measures in at more than 0.16 mm thick, these strong products are safer and less likely to break, even when worn for greater lengths of time or subjected to extreme stress or demanding tasks. The breakthrough time is also significantly higher than with an ultra-thin, thin or medium-strength product made of the same material.Quality of the latex gloves
These latex protective gloves from the Absogel brand are "premium" quality. AMPri exclusively offers products of either a very solid basic standard of quality, a more deluxe "classic" quality or superior "premium" quality. The powder-free, non-sterile, single-use glove is ambidextrous (can be worn on either hand) and has extra length. These disposable gloves are fully textured. Fully textured latex gloves have first-rate slip-proof properties and are ideal when working with slippery instruments or materials. As category III personal protective equipment in line with the PPE Regulation ((EU) 2016/425), they protect the user from health risks that are permanent or potentially fatal. Latex disposable gloves are categorised as class I medical devices. This class comprises products that have no effect on the body and usually pose very little risk. The latex protective gloves are non-sterile; consequently, they cannot be used in sterile applications. The AQL (acceptable quality limit) is the maximum permitted number of defective (permeable) individual samples in a batch or lot (performance level/AQL). For single-use medical gloves, an AQL level for impermeability that does not exceed 1.5 is prescribed in the EN 455-1 standard - which the Latex protective gloves adhere to precisely.We recommend latex protective gloves for the following applications
Latex gloves are particularly appropriate for food containing alcohol, greasy food, acidic food, dry food and watery food and, consequently, are intended for food handling in general. The latex protective gloves offer protection from microorganisms and are therefore impervious to viruses, bacteria and fungi. Chemical protection type B indicates that the latex disposable gloves offer protection against permeation as defined by the crucial EN 374 standard. It defines 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 gloves for these sectors: government authorities, occupational safety, education, other medicine, industry, close-contact services, hospitals and the food industry.

- Latex is a natural product of rubber trees; it is highly stretchable and durable.
- Latex allows for optimal tactile sensitivity.
- Latex gloves and finger cots also keep the wearer safe from numerous acids and alkalis.
The disadvantages of latex
- Unfortunately, price fluctuations are always possible, as latex is a natural raw material that relies on harvest yields and market prices.
- Latex protective gloves are known for triggering allergies because they contain water-soluble proteins that may irritate the mucous membranes of the respiratory system, especially in the case of powdered disposable gloves or finger cots.
- Oils and solvents can immediately penetrate latex gloves and finger cots, so latex is not intended for handling such substances.
