In specialized research environments, hand protection must balance advanced chemical resistance with the comfort of traditional materials. At LabFriend, we offer a specialized selection of high quality laboratory polychloroprene gloves, often referred to as neoprene, designed to provide a high-performance alternative to latex and nitrile. As a critical component of our Cleanroom and Gloves and Fingercots ranges, these solutions are engineered for researchers who require superior stretch and durability in controlled settings.
Why Choose High Quality Laboratory Polychloroprene Gloves?
Polychloroprene combines the best properties of synthetic and natural materials for demanding facility use. Our heavy-duty range is engineered to provide:
- Enhanced Chemical Resistance: Offers broad-spectrum protection against a variety of acids, bases, and alcohols common in laboratory workflows.
- Latex-Like Comfort: Provides the high-stretch elasticity and snug fit of latex while being completely synthetic, eliminating the risk of Type I allergies.
- Double-Donning Capability: The smooth internal finish of high quality models like the Nitritex BioClean Ultimate makes them ideal for double-gloving in high-risk environments.
- Sterile & Cleanroom Ready: Our selection includes sterile options specifically processed to meet stringent ISO particulate standards for aseptic processing.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is the difference between polychloroprene and neoprene gloves?
Polychloroprene is the technical chemical name for the material commonly known by the brand name Neoprene. Both terms refer to the same high quality synthetic rubber used for durable laboratory gloves.
2. Are polychloroprene gloves better than nitrile?
While both are high quality synthetic options, polychloroprene typically offers more elasticity and a fit closer to natural rubber latex, making it more comfortable for extended use while maintaining excellent chemical resistance.
3. Can these gloves be used for double-gloving?
Yes, many of our high quality models, such as the Nitritex BioClean Ultimate, are designed with a smooth surface specifically to facilitate easy double-donning in critical environments.
4. Do you offer sterile polychloroprene options?
Yes, we provide high quality sterile polychloroprene gloves that are individually pair-packed and processed for use in aseptic cleanroom environments.
