Description

Protexis® Latex Powder-free Surgical Gloves by Cardinal Health™ are expertly crafted to meet the demanding needs of healthcare professionals in surgical environments. These gloves are made from natural rubber latex and are designed to offer exceptional protection, dexterity, and comfort.

Key Features

• Powder-Free Design: Minimizes the risks associated with glove powder, such as delayed wound healing and skin irritation, ensuring a safer surgical environment.
• Anatomical Fit: Hand-specific design with an independent thumb allows for natural movement, enhancing comfort and precision during procedures.
• Beaded Cuff: The interlocking, beaded cuff helps reduce roll-down, maintaining a secure fit throughout use.

Advanced Coating Technology

The gloves feature a unique Neu-Thera® Emollient Coating, which includes glycerin, provitamin B5, and gluconolactone. This coating facilitates easier donning and provides skin moisturization. The innovative triple-dip coating technology, integrating nitrile and latex, enhances glove strength and donning ease.

Specifications

• Color Variants: Available in tan, cream, or blue, with the blue variant serving as an underglove in double-gloving systems to alert wearers to perforations.
• Thickness: Nominal fingertip thickness of 7.7 mil (0.19 mm) and length varying slightly by size.
• Sizes Available: Ranges from 5.5 to 9, accommodating a wide array of hand sizes.

Performance and Compliance

These gloves are not intended for use by latex-sensitized individuals due to potential allergic reactions. They are not suitable for laboratory or cleanroom environments but are chemotherapeutic rated. The gloves meet various standards, including ASTM and ISO specifications, ensuring high quality and reliability.

Packaging and Sustainability
