Firstly, there’s the intended purpose. There are industrial-grade and medical grade gloves. The former is used in applications ranging from janitorial services to those in the automotive industry. The medical-grade alternative is designed for protection from blood-borne and environmental pathogens, plus the assortment of chemicals that are handled in medical facilities. Next is the size and colour. You want a unit that will fit your hand properly. Going for one that is too small will impede functionality and one that is too big will result in snagging. Powder is also a factor. There are both kinds: powdered and powder-free nitrile gloves. The powder-free alternatives come with a polymer or chlorinated finish. The role of the finish is to enable easy wearing and removal of the glove, avoiding the mess that is associated with powdered versions.For colour, blue is commonly used for nitrile gloves- especially for the medical-grade units, differentiating them from the others that have been constructed using latex. Glove thickness also weighs in. Here, you want a glove that will provide optimal protection from the substances and chemicals that you will be handling. The thicker the gloves, the more the protection. However, the thickness also affects the dexterity. For instance, for those in the foodservice industry where you will be using the gloves for 8 hours a day, then thinner gloves would be more ideal, in order to prevent your hands from getting too tired. On the other hand, for tattoo artists, painters and similar jobs where the risk of punctures is high, then getting thicker gloves is preferred. With the finish and texture, the focus is on the grip that is provided. When the pair of gloves has a textured finish, you get more grip, which is vital especially when you’ll be dealing with wet situations. What You Get From The ASAP Lite Nitrile GlovesSuperior puncture resistanceWhen working with needles, punctures are top concern. You don’t want to find yourself in a situation where you’re administering an injection to a patient, or drawing a tattoo on your customers, and the needle being used puncturing your skin. That would result in the transmission of bloodborne pathogens, and you cannot afford to take the risk. The risk of the accidental needlestick is prevalent in the medical community with the health care workers being the most directly affected, and other groups like maintenance workers, correctional service officers, caregivers in nursing homes. Nitrile, which clocks a puncture resistance of multiple times that of latex, has become the go-to choice of material for gloves used in these professionals. The ASAP Lite Nitrile Gloves come with a high puncture resistance and are enhanced durability, offering the barrier of protection needed whether you're carrying out tasks in medical facilities, or you’re serving your clients in beauty parlours and tattoo centres. The ASAP Lite Nitrile Gloves are also suitable for the emergency responders, laboratory workers and veterinarians. Protection from chemicals and bodily fluidsIn labs, as you test samples and prepare reagents, you may be exposed to accidental splashes and spills. You don’t want those chemicals coming into contact with your skin. These range from acids that can cause immediate burns, to organic solvents that can permeate into the skin, and affect body tissues. The strength of the ASAP Lite Nitrile Gloves enables you to be protected from the chemicals encountered during the day-to-day operations, including aspects such as overspray from the dispensing devices that are being used, and during those situations when you’re handling biohazard substances. Since they are disposable you won’t be forced to keep washing and reusing them. Once each unit has served its purpose, simply slip it off and dispose of it into the appropriate bin. Speaking of which, remember to segregate the waste disposal based on the substances that were being handled. For instance, if the gloves were being worn as a precaution during general usage and didn’t get contaminated, then they can be disposed of into the regular bin. However, if they come into contact with hazardous chemicals, or you were dealing with bodily fluids, then they should be disposed of in the bins that specifically handle that particular type of waste. Ultra-softThe chlorination that the nitrile gloves are taken through during production reduces the tackiness, in turn making the material softer. This increases the comfort level during usage.
