Enhancing the protective properties of nitrile with a new blend, the Berner Nitrile cleanroom glove is said to guarantee more than eight hours of chemical resistance without compromising on comfort, grip or dexterity.
Meeting the latest EN-374 and ASTM standards in permeation and viral testing, the glove offers protection against several hazardous substances including cytotoxics, bio-agents and viruses. The robustness of the nitrile composition certifies easy handling of long chemical exposures without the need for double gloving, saving on time and expense, the firm says.
As well as superior strength, the glove features the highest level of touch sensitivity and ease of movement, with textured fingertips allowing safe handling of both wet and dry products. This combination of strength and comfort is complimented with a long 300mm beaded cuff for additional protection above the wrist.
Completely latex- and powder-free, the Berner Nitrile glove can be safely used by allergen suffers and in designated latex-free zones. Presented in low-particle poly-packaging, the glove can be used for precise chemical handling in up to Class 100 (ISO 5) cleanroom environments.
