Vinyl Protective Gloves
As a cost-effective alternative to latex, vinyl protective gloves are designed for short-term use, providing an effective temporary barrier against biological contaminants. Vinyl protective gloves are the ideal option for industries demanding frequent changes, such as non-surgical healthcare providers and the food service industries. Vinyl protective gloves offer both comfort and protection, making them an excellent and high quality alternative to latex protective gloves; plus, they don’t present the same allergy concerns as latex gloves often do. They also have added tensile strength and elongation for exceptional durability and flexibility. Sold in a variety of colors, vinyl protective gloves are most often semi-transparent in color. Oftentimes, the food service industry will use different colors in order to prevent cross-contamination.
Exam Vs. Industrial Vinyl Gloves
Exam, otherwise known as medical, grade gloves are used for a variety of applications where the user seeks protection from chemicals and blood borne pathogens such as urine, saliva and blood. Recommended for non-medical purposes, industrial vinyl gloves are typically used in the food service and industrial markets where pathogens are not a concern.
