Usage
Select the correct size (small; palm width 70–90 mm) to ensure a close but comfortable fit without overstretching the glove.
Check the packaging and expiry date before use; do not use if the box or gloves appear damaged or compromised.
Perform appropriate hand hygiene (hand washing or use of alcohol hand rub) and dry hands thoroughly before donning gloves.
Remove a glove from the dispensing box, insert fingers and hand carefully, and pull the cuff over the wrist; repeat for the other hand.
During use, avoid contact with sharp edges or instruments beyond what the glove is rated for; change gloves if they become torn, heavily soiled or after each patient/clinical task in accordance with infection-control policy.
After use, grasp the outside of one glove at the wrist and peel it away from the hand, turning it inside out; hold the removed glove in the gloved hand, then slide ungloved fingers under the remaining glove’s wrist and peel it off over the first glove.
Dispose of used gloves immediately in the appropriate clinical or domestic waste stream according to local protocols.
Wash or sanitise hands thoroughly after glove removal.
Do not reuse these gloves; they are designed and certified for single use only.
Contraindications
Do not use if you have a known hypersensitivity or allergy to nitrile or any component of the glove formulation.
Not suitable for surgical or sterile procedures; sterile surgical gloves should be used where sterility is required.
Do not reuse single-use gloves; reuse may significantly increase the risk of glove failure and cross-contamination.
Not recommended for prolonged or repeated contact with aggressive chemicals beyond the levels specified for EN 374 Part 1 compliance; consult chemical resistance information where relevant.
Adverse Effects
Potential for skin irritation or contact dermatitis in some users due to prolonged occlusion or sensitivity to glove materials or processing chemicals.
In rare cases, possible allergic reactions to components of nitrile or glove additives (despite being latex-free).
Excessive sweating or discomfort during extended wear, common to most occlusive glove types.
Tearing or puncture during use if gloves are exposed to sharp objects or overstretched, which may compromise barrier protection.
Storage Conditions
Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight.
Avoid exposure to excessive heat, humidity or ozone sources which may degrade nitrile material over time.
Keep in original packaging until use to protect from dust and contamination.
Do not store near solvents, oils or chemicals that may affect the glove material.
Observe expiry dates and apply stock rotation on a first-expiry, first-out basis.
Duration
Not applicable; gloves provide barrier protection only while worn and are intended for single-use episodes during individual procedures or tasks.
Onset
Immediate barrier protection upon correct donning of intact gloves.
