Primary Glove Materials
Nitrile Gloves
Are you looking for latex-free gloves? Nitrile is for you with superior durability, minimal allergies, and a comfortable fit for various applications.
Why choose nitrile?
It's not only cost-effective but also versatile. While it may lack the elasticity of latex, nitrile advancements has come a long way in providing fit and dexterity for many applications. Nitrile excels in resisting petroleum-based oils and fuels, offers outstanding puncture resistance, and allows for easy detection of tears before you handle hazardous substances. Plus, it's heat-tolerant and eliminates the risk of latex allergies.
Latex Gloves
Latex gloves offer a snug fit and excellent elasticity, making them the go-to option for tasks requiring maximum finger dexterity.
When is latex the best choice?
They are the ideal choice for medical or precision applications that require a high level of form-fitting, tactile sensitivity, and effective protection against blood borne pathogens. If you are concerned about allergies or need protection against harsh chemicals, consider nitrile gloves as an alternative.
Neoprene Gloves
Neoprene gloves are highly resistant to chemicals, oils, and a wide array of corrosive substances, making them an excellent choice for various industrial and laboratory applications.
When to choose neoprene?
These gloves are your best bet when you need the snug fit and dexterity of latex but want to avoid allergy risks. Effective against a wide range of acids, peroxides, and harmful chemicals, they are a solid choice for high-precision tasks, including medical procedures. However, it's worth noting that they aren't the best match for certain aromatic hydrocarbons and tend to be pricier than nitrile and latex gloves.
Vinyl Gloves
The budget-friendly, latex-free choice for a wide range of applications.
When are vinyl gloves the best option?
Vinyl gloves excel in scenarios that don't require a snug fit—think basic food prep or industrial tasks involving oils, fats, resins, and greases. They hold up well against abrasions, remain flexible in cold temperatures, and have anti-static qualities. If latex allergies are a concern, vinyl is a safe bet. However, they're not recommended for jobs requiring protection against hazardous materials.
Polyethylene Gloves
These gloves are your go-to for short-term applications where sanitation is key but high-level protection isn't necessary. While they can't match the dexterity and robust defense of other materials, they excel in convenience and affordability.
