SHOWA® Biodegradable Extended Cuff Gloves for High-Risk Tasks

Silicone-Free & Anti-Static Extended Cuff Disposable Hand Protection

SHOWA 9905PF Extended Cuff Gloves

High-risk environments or applications require different levels and layers of barrier protection to prevent operators from exposure to particulate migration, infectious pathogens, or contaminated materials.

Because the hands play a significant role in every application performed, disposable gloves are a critical component to personal safety. Unfortunately, standard length nitrile gloves can roll down putting workers at risk of exposure.

An exposed wrist can subject the operator or the product to contamination and can cause mental anguish during what could be a critical procedure. Tucking or adjusting the cuffs with dirty gloves can have severe negative consequences but ignoring it also puts one at significant risk of infection and cross-contamination as well.

Because the wrist area is extremely vulnerable to exposure, long length disposable nitrile gloves are ideal for laboratory, life science and pharmaceutical manufacturing workers who need chemical splash protection, as well as food processing workers who want to protect the hands and wrists during dirty jobs.

Extended Cuff non-sterile, powder-free nitrile gloves are best utilized in high-risk areas where additional protection is needed. It features a long, beaded cuff that safeguards the hands and wrist against spills and splashes while inhibiting roll down.
