FAQs

What are nitrile gloves used for? +

Nitrile gloves are used to protect hands from chemicals, oils, contaminants, and bodily fluids. They’re commonly used in medical settings, laboratories, food handling, automotive work, cleaning, and industrial environments. Nitrile offers excellent puncture resistance and durability while remaining comfortable for extended wear.

What is the difference between latex and nitrile gloves? +

The main difference is the material. Latex gloves are made from natural rubber and offer great elasticity and touch sensitivity, but they can cause allergic reactions in some people. Nitrile gloves are made from synthetic rubber, are latex-free, more puncture-resistant, and better suited for people with latex allergies or for handling chemicals and oils.

What should you not use nitrile gloves for? +

Nitrile gloves should not be used for high-heat applications, open flames, or tasks involving strong oxidizing chemicals that can degrade the material. They are also not intended for prolonged exposure to certain solvents unless the gloves are specifically rated for chemical resistance.

Do hospitals use latex or nitrile gloves? +

Most hospitals today primarily use nitrile gloves. Nitrile is preferred because it is latex-free, reducing the risk of allergic reactions for both patients and healthcare workers, while still providing strong protection, durability, and reliable barrier performance.

Are nitrile gloves food safe? +

Yes, nitrile gloves are food safe when they are labeled as food-grade. They are commonly used in food preparation and food service because they are resistant to oils and fats, do not contain latex proteins, and help maintain proper hygiene when handling food.
