Surgical Gloves in Pakistan – Sterile Latex and Disposable Gloves

How do you choose surgical gloves?

• Sterility: surgery needs sterile, hand-specific gloves.
• Size: match the palm width in inches for a snug fit.
• Powder: powder-free avoids residue; powdered dons faster.
• Material: latex fits closely; synthetic suits allergies.
• Task: polythene gloves only suit light, non-clinical tasks.

Sterile surgical vs exam vs polythene gloves

Match the glove to the risk. Sterile gloves for sterile work; exam gloves for routine care.

How to put on sterile gloves

Clean hands and open the pack on a clean surface. Pick up the first glove by the folded cuff only. Slide your hand in. Slip gloved fingers under the cuff of the second glove and pull it on. Touch only sterile surfaces after that.

Glove storage

Heat, light and ozone weaken latex. Store boxes in a cool, dark room away from motors and UV lamps. Use older stock first and check expiry dates.

Bulk supply for theatres

Busy theatres use many pairs a day across several sizes. Order by the carton. Tell us your monthly use per size and we will suggest a mix.

Signs of a good glove

A good glove pulls on without tearing and has no pinholes. The latex should feel even, not sticky or brittle. Fingers should reach the tips without loose material. Reject packs that are torn or past their date.

Care and usage tips

• Pick by palm size in inches.
• Touch only the cuff when donning.
• Store boxes cool and dark.
• Keep a latex-free option.
