Latex Exam Gloves Free Shipping Offer Ends 4-11-17

Latex exam gloves are a popular choice for disposable gloves. They can be utilized effectively in numerous industries. Common professions that need disposable gloves include doctors, dentists, mechanics, policemen, firemen, day care workers, and janitors. All of these professions may be exposed to harmful substances or materials while working, so they need the protection of gloves.
Latex is a natural rubber product that is derived from rubber trees. These trees are most commonly found in tropical locations. Liquid latex can be collected from the trees after the bark has been scraped off. This liquid must be treated with chemicals immediately after being collected so it will not harden.

Latex gloves are made by dipping a mold into this natural latex liquid and letting it dry.

FDA proposes a ban on Latex, Nitrile and Vinyl Gloves 'with powder'

The FDA proposes a ban on Latex, Nitrile and Vinyl Gloves 'with powder'

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration announced a proposal to ban most powdered gloves in the United States. While use of these gloves is decreasing, they pose an unreasonable and substantial risk of illness or injury to health care providers, patients and other individuals who are exposed to them, which cannot be corrected through new or updated labeling.

The FDA recommends the following precautions when using Latex, Nitrile and Vinyl Gloves:

• Remove shrink-wrap from pallets of stacked cartons.
• Break apart stacked cartons on each pallet and re-stack or reconfigure cartons to facilitate cooling ventilation.
• Periodically check powder-free latex gloves for characteristics suggesting deterioration, such as brittleness, tackiness, or an acrid chemical odor.
• Rotate powder-free latex glove stock using “first in, first out” practices.
• Store gloves in a cool, dry environment with a temperature ranging between 50° and 72° F (10°-22° C).
• Avoid storing gloves near chemicals, heat, humidity, ultraviolet light, high-energy radiation, ozone, and stress.
• Avoid a large inventory of palletized powder-free latex gloves.
• Remove shrink-wrap from pallets of stacked cartons.
• Break apart stacked cartons on each pallet and re-stack or reconfigure cartons to facilitate ventilation.
• Check all gloves for characteristics suggesting deterioration, such as brittleness, tackiness, or an acrid chemical odor. Discard if any abnormalities are noted.
• Rotate powder-free latex glove stock using “first in, first out” practices.

Warning: Do not be fooled by our competitors who will sell you industrial latex gloves as an exam grade glove. You only want to buy "Exam Grade and Powder Free" Because Industrial Style Gloves are not for human use in food prep, daycare or health care. If you are using industrial gloves for work and cleaning you're making the right choice.
