Blue powder-free nitrile examination gloves

Description

Aurelia Robust Nitrile Powder Free Gloves are premium quality sky-blue nitrile examination gloves designed to provide greater tensile strength, puncture resistance and chemical resistance than comparable latex and vinyl gloves. Made from 100% nitrile with a 4.5 mil (approx. 0.11 mm) nominal thickness and fully micro-textured finish, these non-sterile, ambidextrous gloves deliver durable, all-day protection with superior comfort and dexterity. Each batch is air-tested to detect pinholes, and the gloves are manufactured and certified as both medical devices and Category III PPE. This listing refers to the Small size, supplied in a dispenser box of 100 powder-free blue nitrile examination gloves.

Bnefits

  • Premium sky-blue nitrile formulation offers greater tensile strength and puncture resistance than comparable latex and vinyl examination gloves.
  • 4.5 mil single-wall thickness (approximate) provides a robust barrier while maintaining flexibility and comfort for extended wear.
  • Fully micro-textured surface enhances grip and control in dry, wet or mildly oily conditions, improving instrument handling and safety.
  • Powder-free and 100% latex-free construction reduces the risk of powder-related contamination and latex allergy reactions.
  • Longer-length cuff (minimum 240 mm) offers increased coverage and protection for the wrist and lower forearm.
  • Non-sterile, ambidextrous design simplifies stock management and dispensing while supporting quick donning in busy environments.
  • Each batch is air-tested to detect pinholes, supporting consistent barrier performance and quality.
  • Certified to EN 455 for medical use and EN ISO 374 for protection against selected chemicals and microorganisms, including viruses.
  • Food-contact compliant, making the gloves suitable for food handling and processing applications.
  • Versatile glove suitable for healthcare, laboratory, industrial, janitorial, automotive and aesthetic practice use.

Indications

  • General medical and dental examinations requiring non-sterile, single-use examination gloves.
  • Aesthetic medicine, dermatology, tattooing and cosmetic procedures where durable, latex-free gloves with good grip are required.
  • Laboratory and pharmaceutical work involving biological materials and certain chemicals within the glove’s EN ISO 374 chemical-resistance profile.
  • Veterinary and animal care procedures needing robust disposable gloves with high puncture resistance.
  • Industrial, engineering, maintenance and janitorial tasks, particularly where contact with oils, greases and cleaning agents is anticipated.
  • Automotive workshops and mechanical environments requiring a strong, chemically resistant disposable glove.
  • Food handling, catering and food-processing applications where food-contact-approved gloves are required.
  • Situations where latex-free gloves are required due to latex allergy or sensitisation among staff or patients.

Composition

  • Material: Nitrile butadiene rubber (NBR), 100% latex free.
  • Colour: Sky blue / strong blue.
  • Design: Fully micro-textured (all-over microtexture) to improve grip.
  • Single-wall thickness (minimum values from EU product sheet): finger min. 0.12 mm, palm min. 0.09 mm, cuff min. 0.05 mm (approx. 4.5 mil nominal overall).
  • Length: Minimum 240 mm across all sizes (XS–XL).
  • Glove weight: 5.0 g ± 0.2 g (reference size, from EU product sheet).
  • Cuff: Beaded cuff for added strength and easier donning.
  • Powder: Powder free (no added donning powder).
  • Protein content: Not made with natural rubber latex; protein free.
  • Texture: Micro-textured surface for improved grip performance.
  • Physical properties (minimum values unaged): tensile strength ≥14 MPa, elongation at break ≥500%, force at break ≥6 N.

Formulation

  • Non-sterile, single-use nitrile examination glove.
  • Ambidextrous design to fit either hand, simplifying inventory and dispensing.
  • Beaded cuff to prevent roll-down and provide additional tear resistance at the cuff edge.
  • Micro-textured surface to enhance grip without significantly compromising tactile sensitivity.
  • Medical grade quality with AQL 1.5 for pinhole defects.
  • Classified as both a medical device (examination glove) and Category III PPE.
  • Available sizes: XS, S, M, L, XL (and sometimes XXL); this configuration refers specifically to Small.
  • Designed for use as an examination glove but robust enough for many industrial and high-demand applications.

Packaging

  • Dispenser box containing 100 blue powder-free nitrile examination gloves (by count) in size Small.
  • Standard case configuration: 10 boxes per outer carton (10 x 100 = 1,000 gloves).
  • Dispenser box features a perforated opening for easy single-glove dispensing.
  • Packaging clearly marked with product name (Aurelia Robust), size (Small), lot/batch number, manufacturing and expiry dates, and relevant regulatory symbols.
  • Outer shipping case printed with product description, size range, quantity, manufacturer/distributor details and barcodes for logistics and stock rotation.
  • Shelf-life indicated as up to 5 years from date of manufacture when stored under recommended conditions.

Usage

  • Before use, check that the outer carton and dispenser box are intact and that the gloves are within the indicated expiry date.
  • Ensure hands are clean and dry; remove sharp jewellery and trim nails to minimise the risk of puncturing the glove.
  • Select the correct size (Small) to ensure a snug but comfortable fit that allows full range of motion without excessive stretching.
  • Remove a glove from the dispenser by the cuff, avoiding contact with multiple gloves where possible.
  • Insert fingers and thumb fully into the glove and pull the beaded cuff over the wrist, smoothing out any folds to ensure an even fit.
  • Repeat the process for the opposite hand, using aseptic technique where required in clinical environments.
  • During use, avoid contact with chemicals or cytotoxic agents that are not listed as compatible in the glove’s EN ISO 374 chemical-resistance data or local COSHH assessments.
  • Change gloves between patients, between different tasks on the same patient, and immediately if the glove is torn, punctured, heavily soiled or after contact with aggressive chemicals.
  • To remove, grasp the outside of one glove near the wrist and peel it off inside out, holding it in the gloved hand; slide an ungloved finger under the cuff of the remaining glove and peel it off over the first glove, avoiding contact with the outer glove surfaces.
  • Dispose of used gloves in accordance with local infection-control, clinical waste or general waste policies; do not wash or reuse disposable gloves.
  • After glove removal, wash or sanitise hands according to current hand-hygiene guidelines.

Contraindications

  • Known or suspected allergy or hypersensitivity to nitrile or any of the chemicals (e.g., accelerators, pigments) used in the glove formulation.
  • Use as a substitute for sterile surgical gloves in procedures that require a sterile barrier; Aurelia Robust gloves are non-sterile examination gloves.
  • Use with aggressive chemicals, solvents or cytotoxic drugs beyond the glove’s tested EN ISO 374 chemical-resistance profile and local risk assessments.
  • Use in environments involving open flame, high heat or molten materials; nitrile examination gloves are not heat- or flame-resistant PPE.
  • Do not use if gloves appear brittle, sticky, discoloured, torn, punctured or otherwise degraded, or if the packaging is damaged or opened before use.

Adverse Effects

  • Possible skin irritation, contact dermatitis or allergic reactions in susceptible individuals due to nitrile compounds or residual process chemicals.
  • Excessive sweating and skin maceration when gloves are worn continuously for prolonged periods without rest or glove changes.
  • Reduced fine tactile sensitivity and manual dexterity if the wrong glove size is worn or if multiple glove layers are used.
  • Increased risk of contamination or exposure if gloves are reused, worn beyond their intended duration, or used with sharp instruments that may puncture the glove.
  • If gloves are used with chemicals outside their tested resistance profile, permeation can occur and lead to chemical exposure.

Storage Conditions

  • Store in a cool, dry, clean environment away from direct sunlight and strong artificial light.
  • Maintain storage temperatures typically below 40°C, avoiding extremes of heat and cold and excessive humidity as indicated on the packaging.
  • Keep gloves away from ozone-generating devices and from chemicals, oils, solvents and fumes that could degrade nitrile.
  • Store in the original packaging until required to protect from dust, moisture and contaminants.
  • Rotate stock on a first-in, first-out (FIFO) basis and do not use gloves beyond the expiry date printed on the packaging.

Duration

Single-use disposable examination glove intended for one procedure or task only; must be changed between patients or tasks, or sooner if damaged or visibly contaminated.
