FAQs

Are these gloves suitable for latex allergies?

Yes, these gloves are made from nitrile, which is a synthetic rubber and a common alternative for individuals with latex allergies. However, a very small percentage of people can be sensitive to nitrile as well.

Can I reuse these gloves?

No, these are disposable examination gloves and are designed for single use only. Reusing them can compromise their protective barrier and introduce contaminants.

What is the difference between powder-free and powdered gloves?

Powder-free gloves have the cornstarch powder removed after manufacturing, reducing the risk of skin irritation and contamination. Powdered gloves contain a small amount of cornstarch powder to make them easier to put on, but this powder can sometimes cause allergic reactions or interfere with certain medical procedures.

Are these gloves safe for handling all types of food?

Yes, these Unicare Nitrile Gloves are approved for use with all food types, including fatty foods, making them suitable for various food service applications.

How should I store these gloves?

Store the gloves in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Keep the box or packaging sealed when not in use to protect the gloves from dust and moisture.

What does 'medical grade' mean for these gloves?

Medical grade signifies that the gloves meet stringent quality and safety standards required for use in healthcare settings, ensuring they provide reliable barrier protection against biological and chemical contaminants.

What is the glove length?

The glove length is 240 mm, which typically covers the wrist and provides protection up to the mid-forearm area.

Troubleshooting

Gloves tear easily during use.

Ensure you are using the correct size glove. A glove that is too small will be strained and more prone to tearing. Also, check for sharp objects or rough surfaces that might cause damage. If the tearing persists, consider a glove with higher cut or tear resistance if available for your specific task.

Difficulty donning the gloves.

Ensure your hands are completely dry. The beaded cuff is designed to aid in donning, but moisture can make it difficult. If the gloves feel tight, you may need a larger size.

Skin irritation after wearing.

While these gloves are powder-free, some individuals may still experience irritation from the nitrile material or residues. Ensure hands are clean and dry before donning. If irritation persists, discontinue use and consult a healthcare professional. Consider non-nitrile alternatives if sensitivity is confirmed.
