Medical and protective gloves, including diagnostic and disposable gloves, are essential personal protective equipment in healthcare settings. They prevent pathogen transmission and protect against hazardous substances. Common materials include nitrile (high chemical resistance, allergy-free), latex (elastic, comfortable, but may cause allergies), and vinyl (flexible, latex-free alternative). Gloves are available in various sizes to ensure a proper fit, durability, and protection against punctures or mechanical damage. Their role is crucial in ensuring safety for medical staff and patients.

Surgical gloves are essential in operating rooms to ensure safety and sterility, protecting both patients and medical staff from pathogen transmission. They must meet strict quality standards to prevent microorganism and fluid penetration. Traditionally made of latex, they are increasingly produced from synthetic materials like nitrile, neoprene, and polyisoprene, which offer high chemical resistance and are hypoallergenic. They are sterile, with extended cuffs, making them ideal for complex and prolonged procedures. Available in various sizes, they ensure an optimal fit and provide the highest level of protection and hygiene.
