Disposable gloves

Market situation (update from April 3rd, 2022)

April 2022

International shipping shipments are still regularly delayed by several weeks, even though the required quantities of gloves are sufficiently available on the world market. We can currently avoid major failures through appropriate inventory management, although short-term bottlenecks cannot be ruled out for individual colors and sizes.

April 2021

The global demand for disposable gloves has almost doubled in the last year. However, raw material production and manufacturing facilities in the producing countries are at capacity, meaning that the production of nitrile disposable gloves could not be increased sufficiently in the short term. Disruptions in the supply chains and loss of production periods are also causing tension in availability and prices. Due to the technical complexity of the production process, we do not expect this market to ease before mid-2022.

We work with our partners on reliable delivery and are pleased to currently be able to offer several high-quality brands.
