Examination glove guides for buyers

Buyers usually need three things in order: pick latex or nitrile, check the quality tests that actually appear on a COA, then see a real lot — not a brochure. We manufacture in Selangor (annual capacity 2 billion pieces) and sell through Pacific Resource Holding Limited in Hong Kong. Specs and quotes: info@pacificresourceglobal.com or WhatsApp +852 65347895.

Latex or nitrile — start here

• Latex: elasticity, tactility, comfort for most clinical exams.
• Nitrile: no natural-rubber protein, better chemical resistance, the usual choice where latex allergy is a risk or solvents are involved.
• Powdered vs powder-free is a separate decision (donning vs residue).

Full comparison: latex vs nitrile examination gloves.

Related: powdered vs powder-free latex gloves; latex glove protein content and allergies.

Six checks that belong on a glove COA

1. Tensile strength: force at break before and after ageing is reported under ISO 11193-1. Lot 20251010: 11.9 N avg before ageing (limit ≥ 7.0 N). Read the examination glove standards guide.
2. Elongation: the same reports show 726% avg before ageing (limit ≥ 650%).
3. Barrier integrity / pinholes: the water-tight test for latex lot 20251010 found 15 defects / 500 gloves, AQL 2.5 (accept 21). Our nitrile examination gloves are produced to AQL 1.5 on freedom from holes. See the AQL standard guide and the pinhole testing guide.
4. Pin-hole testing method: compare online 100% inspection with sampling, as explained in the online versus sampling pinhole guide.
5. Packaging verification: 100 pcs/box, 10 boxes/carton is our standard packing; match carton marks to the lot. Size mix: disposable gloves size guide.
6. Traceability: the lot number should appear on the carton and on the SGS reports (lot 20251010). See what certifications latex examination gloves need and certificates.

We write these from the factory floor in Selangor. Ask for the COA of the lot you will ship, not a generic PDF.
