These gloves are made from synthetic polyisoprene, providing a latex-free, powder-free option that significantly reduces the risk of latex-related allergies.

Key Features

• Ultra-Thin Design: Approximately 20–25% thinner than regular Biogel PI gloves, allowing for superior tactile sensitivity, even when double-gloving.
• Comfort and Fit: Designed to conform to the hand like a second skin, offering comfort and feel comparable to natural rubber latex.
• Curved Finger Design: Enhances dexterity and control during intricate surgical procedures.
