FAQ
Nitrile gloves are better suited for medical examinations, procedures requiring a high level of protection, and handling chemicals due to their durability, chemical resistance, and comfort. Vinyl gloves are more appropriate for low-risk, non-hazardous tasks and situations where cost is a significant concern. Overall, nitrile gloves are generally considered superior for medical and high-risk environments, while vinyl gloves are suitable for low-risk tasks and situations where cost savings are important.
Disposable gloves are a broad category of single-use gloves used in various industries like food service, cleaning, and industrial work. They are made from materials such as latex, nitrile, vinyl, and polyethylene, and their standards vary by intended use. Exam gloves are a specific type of disposable glove designed for medical examinations and procedures, primarily used in healthcare settings to prevent cross-contamination. They must meet strict medical standards (e.g., FDA, ASTM) and are typically made from latex, nitrile, or vinyl. Exam gloves are available in both sterile and non-sterile versions and often come in dispenser boxes for easy access. In summary, while all exam gloves are disposable, not all disposable gloves are exam gloves.
No, they are not the same. Examination gloves are designed for medical examinations and procedures, providing a barrier to prevent cross-contamination. They are available in both sterile and non-sterile versions and must meet specific medical standards (e.g., FDA, ASTM). Clean gloves are generally used for tasks requiring cleanliness but not medical sterility, such as handling food or cleaning. They are usually non-sterile and do not need to meet stringent medical standards.
