Glove Manufacturer's Guide - How to Choose Cleaning Gloves
Recently, a netizen exposed on Weibo the news that "inferior rubber gloves can cause cancer", claiming that inferior rubber gloves are mostly processed from recycled rubber, and the raw materials are mostly recycled industrial rubber. Temporary use can cause cancer.

At present, there are many varieties of cleaning gloves on the market, with varying prices and quality differences. Many citizens choose some inferior glove products because they want to be cheap, resulting in itching on the palms and backs of their hands, and even redness on the palms. After visiting and understanding, it was found that many rubber gloves in the retail market do not have consumer norms on their packaging, and the packaging is complex and easy to open. You can clearly smell a pungent rubber smell, which feels rough to the touch. There are also some powdery things inside the gloves, which are a bit sticky to wear on your hands.
It is understood that these inferior rubber gloves can be made from industrial rubber consumption. Industrial rubber, especially some recycled waste rubber, such as those that have been in contact with pesticides, paints, and even those used in hospitals, can be recycled and circulated again in the market as raw materials for manufacturing rubber gloves.
Poor quality industrial rubber contains small molecular weights, which are prone to volatilization when exposed to heat, causing rubber gloves to become soft. These harmless volatile substances can have a significant impact on the liver, kidneys, and blood of the human body, causing great damage to the body. In particular, recycled industrial rubber can also contain heavy metals, which can have carcinogenic effects. If rubber gloves are worn and not exposed to heat sources, wouldn't these reactions occur without causing the gloves to heat up? When we wear rubber gloves to do household chores, we easily sweat, and when we sweat, our pores will open. This allows harmless substances outside the gloves to evaporate into the body when exposed to heat, which can also be very harmful to the human body.
Therefore, when citizens choose cleaning gloves, they should choose brands that have obtained relevant national qualifications. Currently, the main cleaning glove products on the market are latex gloves, nitrile gloves, PVC gloves, and PE gloves. Among them, nitrile gloves are (1) comfortable: easy to wear, caring for hands; (2) Durable: Excellent elasticity and high stretchability; (3) Hands on: sensitive operation, easy to use; (4) Ping An: The advantages of no allergens and one-sided protection have gained market recognition.
Therefore, when consumers choose cleaning gloves, they must not be tempted by a small discount and purchase low-priced gloves. When selecting gloves, you can use the "one look, two smells, three pulls" method to stop distinguishing. High quality cleaning gloves have a relatively average appearance and fewer magazines when viewed through the light. They have a low odor and quickly recover after being pulled. And high-quality gloves will have corresponding national testing standards. Consumers must pay attention to differentiation when stopping their purchases.
