Gloves & Lab Coats (Nitrile, Latex, Vinyl, Sterile)

Gloves and lab coats are fundamental components of personal protective equipment (PPE) in laboratories, cleanrooms, and production environments where chemical exposure, biological hazards, and sterility requirements are part of daily operations. Whether in biotechnology, pharmaceutical manufacturing, academic research, clinical diagnostics, or chemical analysis, properly selected gloves and lab coats protect workers from hazardous substances while minimizing the risk of cross-contamination and ensuring regulatory compliance with OSHA, CDC, GMP, and ISO standards. Gloves are available in several materials—nitrile, latex, vinyl, and sterile options—each offering unique benefits suited to specific laboratory tasks. Nitrile gloves are widely used for their chemical resistance, durability, and puncture protection, making them ideal for handling solvents, reagents, and biological samples. Latex gloves provide superior elasticity and tactile sensitivity, preferred for precision work like pipetting and microscale manipulations. Vinyl gloves are a cost-effective alternative suitable for low-risk applications such as sample handling or routine cleaning. Sterile gloves, often gamma-irradiated or ETO-treated, are individually packed and essential for aseptic environments, surgical preparation, cell culture, and clinical procedures. Lab coats, available in disposable or reusable formats, serve as a barrier against spills, splashes, particulates, and potential contaminants. Constructed from materials such as cotton, polyester blends, microporous film, or antistatic SMS fabric, they protect both the wearer and the surrounding environment. Many feature knit cuffs, snap closures, reinforced seams, and fluid-resistant coatings, ensuring comfort, safety, and functionality during extended wear. At Wasteless Bio, we offer surplus and discounted gloves and lab coats from reputable manufacturers. Each product listing includes details such as material composition, sterility, glove thickness, coat length, protection level, and cleanroom compatibility. By sourcing gloves and lab coats through Wasteless Bio, laboratories can maintain safety and compliance while supporting sustainable procurement practices through the reuse and redistribution of high-quality PPE.
