Strong, durable, tactile and waterproof, Nitrile gloves offer high quality personal protection in medical and non-medical applications. Nitrile gloves begin their lifecycle as rubber from rubber trees which are then transformed into latex rubber. They are again reprocessed until they turn into the nitrile compound material. The extra processing removes all latex proteins. The extra step of processing in the glove creation process was originally why when nitrile gloves first hit the market, they were so expensive compared to latex. However, technological advancements have led to more cost-effective practices in the making of nitrile gloves. Nitrile gloves are now just as affordable as latex gloves. The reprocessing and removal of all latex proteins means that nitrile material also has a lower allergy rate than latex.

Nitrile gloves are chemical resistant, including oils and solvents, and also provide a higher puncture resistance than any other glove material making them a go-to glove for many industries.
