Virus-protection gloves are obviously in high demand in medical settings, and require both a high level of protection against pathogens and an ergonomic and practical design.
Needlestick or scalpel injuries put healthcare workers at risk of life-threatening infections such as hepatitis C and HIV. But a simple pair of gloves that automatically disinfects the wounds could boost the chances of avoiding infection.
Contrary to medical gloves that serve as a barrier between germs and the skin hands, the antiviral gloves can reduce the spread of infections. By using a disinfectant agent (Chlorhexidine and Chloroxylenol), the antiviral glove kills virused surfaces upon contact.

Orthopedic Gloves are designed to provide extra protection during complicated or rigorous orthopedic surgery, particularly against bone fragments and other surgical debris. The surface of the gloves is designed to maximize instrument grip and comfort.
Special Features
Provides extra protection during complicated or rigorous orthopaedic surgery, particularly against bone fragments and other surgical debris
Unique brown colour minimizes eyestrain in the operation theatre, providing a good contrast to light-coloured organs and improving visibility Anatomical design to reduce fatigue during extended surgery

Recommended for all types of surgery where glove puncture is likely, especially trauma, cardiac, transplant, orthopedic and gastrointestinal
Powder-free and sterile natural rubber latex with Biogel coating on the inner surface
Can be worn alone or as part of a Puncture Indication System, as the smooth surface is specifically engineered for unparalleled ease of double-donning
Green color spot alerts wearer of punctures in outer latex glove if a perforation occurs in the presence of fluid.
Beaded cuff offers added security

Powdered gloves have cornstarch added which makes them easier to put on, especially in busy locations, and can prevent gloves from sticking together. When powdered gloves are worn for a long period of time the powder can cling to user’s skin and cause sensitivities or allergies. Cornstarch powder may also contribute to latex allergies or sensitivity.
It is important to note that powdered gloves are not generally an allergy concern with nitrile or vinyl gloves.

Powder-free gloves undergo a process known as chlorination that helps make latex gloves less form fitting so that powder is not needed for easy donning and removal. During the process, gloves are treated with a chlorine solution, rinsed with water, and dried to remove most of the powdered residue and latex proteins.

The downside of the process is that powder-free gloves can be harder to remove quickly and may decrease the firmness of the glove’s grip. Powder-free gloves are also more expensive than powdered gloves due to the extra effort involved in the chlorination process.

Sterile gloves are defined as sterile when they meet the FDA standards for sterilization techniques. Non-sterile gloves are not usually sterilized by the manufacturer of the gloves, but still must be tested by the FDA after sterilization to ensure that they meet the FDA’s standard assurance level (SAL) for sterilization techniques.

It is important to note that non-sterile gloves are typically used for non-surgical medical procedures and examinations. Sterile gloves are used to carry out surgical procedures.

One of the main differences between non-sterile and sterile gloves is the AQL or the acceptable quality level of pinholes. Surgical gloves have a lower AQL than non-sterile gloves, with sterile gloves AQL at 1.0 to 1.5 and non-sterile gloves AQL at 1.5 to 2.5. The number refers to the gloves in the sample that will have pinholes. So, for example, about 1.5 to 2.5% of the non-sterile sample gloves would have a pinhole. An AQL of 1 means that 1% of the gloves will have pinholes, and so on.

Damp donning is a common challenge faced by single-use glove wearers. Whether moisture results from sweat, the use of isopropyl alcohol (IPA) spray or sanitizing solution, or work conducted in liquid solutions, double donning in damp conditions can prove exasperating. For individuals who must double don multiple times a day, it can be a source of significant daily aggravation. To ease the double donning experience, start by looking for gloves from manufacturers with a proven history of improving the user experience through innovation. At Betterglove, we research, design and develop single-use gloves with special attention toward reducing end-user hassles such as damp donning. Our patented technologies, special coatings and innovative materials allow us to offer many gloves that are easy to don in high-moisture environments.
