I work for a university with lots of labs. there are two types of gloves they use. Latex, and Nitril. If the nitril does not stand up to the chemicals they use, the laytex will. we go through the laytex bythe truck load. the problem with laytex is, they are thinner, more brittle and will develope holes unless ou are very careful with them. even penturning would envolve enough stress to destroy them.
also many people have allergies to laytex. but they are cheap.
nitril gloves are the answer to all the above. no allergies, stronger, thicker etc.
I ahve been reading this thinking, maybe i should get some of these and offer them with the other stuff in the CA Bulk Buy. I am also looking for a way to offer Poly Glue in the bulk buy. one stop shopping for all your gluing needs.
so any pointers for wholesale poly glue, and if you are interested in gloves (nitril) being available at wholesale prices but by the individual glove. E-mail me or post here so I can decide if there is anough demand for them. I know they can be gotten in small, med, large and X-Large sizes.
I have a long thin hand, measuring 8 inches from wrist to the tip of my middle finger and I wear a large. if you have a fat hand you would want an X-large. I can barely fit into a med and it will tear quickly. and forget a small. in my department we will go through 50 cases of med gloves for every one case of small. we are even thinking about not supplying them anymore. if you have no idea what size you need, med is your best bet. of 100 custodians we have at U.N.R I estimate 90 of them use a med gloves. the rest use large. and nearly none use X-Large or small.
