Henry Schein Brand Gloves

Nitrile gloves, latex gloves and vinyl gloves are the three most widely used gloves in healthcare. Each glove type has its own unique qualities and attributes that make it suitable for different clinical needs and personal preferences.

All glove types are available from our much-loved Henry Schein Brands offering the perfect blend of excellent value and exceptional quality.

Leading the way are our DEHP nitrile gloves. Designed for maximum sensitivity, dexterity and comfort, DEHP nitrile gloves offer the durability and barrier protection required to reduce the chances of contamination.

Why size matters

Glove size is important. Gloves that are too big can slip off accidentally, cause a distraction and provide a weaker grip whilst gloves that are too small can decrease dexterity, be uncomfortable and tear easily.

Measuring your glove size is easy. Simply grab a tape measure and measure the circumference of your dominant hand at the widest point (excluding the thumb). This is just below the knuckles.

Use your measurement to refer to the glove size chart below and determine your glove size.

Why are Medical Gloves Important?

Medical professionals often wear gloves for treatments and examinations. This is to help prevent the spread of germs and to protect both themselves and the patient.

Rushing into buying the cheapest gloves based purely on price can backfire as poor quality gloves can lead to discomfort, poor handling and inferior barrier protection. It can also lead to long term consequences such as hand fatigue and spending excessively on gloves that keep breaking.

Investing in good quality medical gloves does not have to be expensive and can help improve both comfort levels and efficiency within the team. Our Henry Schein Brand gloves are proof of this.
