Product Review

Those who work in healthcare know second best isn't good enough. The same goes for lab workers-only top-notch equipment will do the job right. After all, it's people's health, even their lives, at stake. They need protection they can count on: 1st Choice 14-Mil Blue Latex Exam Gloves. Anyone who works around bloodborne pathogens and other potentially hazardous substances needs a full-on safety regimen. That means the thicker the gloves, the better. At the same time, however, they're handling delicate equipment and making precise calculations. They need total control, all the time. These 1st Choice gloves are more than three times thicker than standard disposables-with an extended cuff for added forearm protection-to prevent exposure to pathogens or environmental contaminants. Even with that strong barrier, they deliver the superb fit, feel, and comfort that only latex can offer. Latex has better elasticity than nitrile or vinyl, so you can be sure these gloves will be snug but not constricting, with less resistance that can cause hand fatigue. They always move with you, without bunching or pinching. They're great outside of medical and lab environments, too, providing first-rate protection for painting, mechanical work, or any number of clean-up tasks. They hold up longer against most acids, bases, and common chemicals including chlorine, iodine, and formaldehyde. Simply put, this is one tough pair of gloves.
