Examination Gloves in Latex, Nitrile and Vinyl
Single-use examination gloves for clinical examination, laboratories, dental practices, emergency departments, sterilisation units and care homes. Latex, nitrile and vinyl grades in sterile and non-sterile versions.
Choose the material, keep the feel
Nitrile and vinyl grades are latex-free for wearers with natural rubber latex sensitivity. Chlorinated inner surfaces and polymer coatings make donning easier when hands are damp and reduce tackiness during extended wear.
Textured fingertips improve grip on instruments, packaging and wet surfaces. Gloves are available in a range of colours for department coding, with custom packing and private-label cartons on request.

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between examination and surgical gloves?
Examination gloves are single-use gloves for examination and diagnostic work, supplied in latex, nitrile and vinyl. Surgical gloves are made to tighter dimensional tolerances for operative use, with a lower pinhole AQL.
Are your nitrile examination gloves latex-free?
Yes. Nitrile examination gloves are made from nitrile butadiene rubber and contain no natural rubber latex, making them suitable for latex-sensitive wearers.
Can you supply examination gloves with custom packing?
Yes. Custom packing and private-label cartons are available on request, and colours can be mixed for department coding.
