Latex gloves are a natural product and are made from the rubber of the rubber tree. Very stretchy and tear-resistant, latex gloves are particularly frequently used in healthcare. They are very comfortable to wear and provide sensitive tactile feedback, so that even delicate work or examinations with latex gloves are possible. They also offer reliable protection against viruses, bacteria, alcohols or acids, which is why they are used in the medical industry as well as in hairdressing and various industrial sectors. Latex gloves are only less suitable when in contact with oils and fats - here we recommend using disposable nitrile gloves.
Another disadvantage of the natural material latex: Some people have an allergic reaction to it. Here too, nitrile is the material of choice.
In terms of price, latex gloves are in the middle segment and stand out particularly because of their high level of comfort.
