Polymer Gloves

Buyer’s Guide to Choosing Polymer Gloves

Disposable polymer gloves provide a powder-free option for cleaning, food handling and other short-duration workplace tasks. They may be considered as an alternative where standard latex gloves are unsuitable.

Insinc’s range includes stretch polymer and soft-touch vitrile polymer-blend gloves in sizes from small to extra-large, supplied in cartons of 1,000 gloves.

Polymer or Vitrile-Blend Gloves?

Stretch polymer gloves are designed to provide flexibility for general disposable-glove applications. Vitrile gloves combine polymer materials to offer a soft feel and closer fit for tasks requiring more hand movement and control.

Material composition and performance can vary, so check the individual product specifications for food-contact suitability, chemical resistance and other workplace requirements.

How Should Polymer Gloves Be Used?

Choose the correct size so the glove stays securely in place without limiting dexterity. Powder-free options help minimise loose glove powder in food-service, cleaning and general workplace environments.

Replace gloves whenever they become torn, contaminated or when changing between tasks. Polymer gloves do not replace proper handwashing and should not be assumed to protect against every chemical or industrial hazard.
