Frequently Asked Questions
1. Are vinyl gloves suitable for chemical handling?
Vinyl gloves provide limited chemical resistance. For handling aggressive laboratory chemicals, we recommend using Nitrile Gloves or consulting our Chemical Protective Gloves category.
2. What is the difference between PVC and LDPE vinyl gloves?
PVC vinyl (like Unigloves PREMIUM) is generally more durable and fits more snugly, while LDPE (like Franz Mensch Polyclassic) is a thinner, looser-fitting polyethylene used for basic hygiene and food handling.
3. Are these vinyl gloves powder-free?
Yes, the professional models we stock, including the Unigloves PREMIUM and Semperit series, are powder-free to prevent skin irritation and cross-contamination in technical environments.
4. Can I use vinyl gloves for medical examinations?
Yes, vinyl examination gloves like the Unigloves PREMIUM series are frequently used in clinical settings for non-invasive procedures where high tactile sensitivity is not as critical as latex.
