Powder free latex gloves are an essential piece of PPE for many medical and laboratory professionals, as well as many other industries. Not only do these gloves provide necessary barrier protection against the transfer of germs and particles, but they also have powerful grip technology that allows users to safely handle tools, chemicals and materials. Unlike powdered latex gloves which may contain traces of allergen proteins, powder free latex gloves are more hypoallergenic and often more comfortable to wear due to their textured surface. Plus, they don’t leave a dusty residue like normal powdered gloves which can be beneficial in some clinical settings. 

It is used for medical purposes to general everyday activities like baking, latex gloves provide a layer of protection that allows us to do everything from scraping up messes to keeping germs and infection at bay. They’re comfortable, lightweight, elastic, and relatively inexpensive- allowing us to easily use them for anything from food preparation to cleaning without feeling weighed down or inhibited by their difference in texture from regular skin contact. In addition, they are easily disposable and getting them off is also easier – just peel off the glove backwards, pull it away from your skin at the cuff or wrist area and discard in an appropriate container.  These features make latex gloves a great choice for those occasions where a quick cleanup is necessary but frequent glove changes aren’t possible.
