Experience the AMMEX End User Glove Trial Program

Glove Trial

Selecting the right disposable glove is crucial for safety, comfort, and productivity—but it’s often harder than it should be. AMMEX understands that every workplace has unique needs, which is why we launched the End User Trial Program. This initiative gives organizations a chance to test up to 10 cases of AMMEX gloves for 30 days, completely free of charge.

If your team isn’t currently using AMMEX gloves and typically purchases more than one case per month, you’re eligible to participate. The process is simple and designed to save you time: just fill out a quick online form, and our glove experts will recommend the best options for your specific tasks and environment. Once approved, you’ll receive your gloves and have a full month to evaluate them in your actual work setting.

How Does the Trial Work?

  1. Sign Up: Complete a brief online form, sharing details about glove usage, current supplier, and industry.
  2. Qualification: The AMMEX team will review the request, verify eligibility, and recommend the best glove options using a decision tree based on industry and use case.
  3. Shipment: Approved requests will receive up to 10 cases of gloves, which can be split between different products but must be of the same size per case.
  4. Evaluation: Teams use the gloves for 30 days, testing them in actual work conditions.

During the trial, your team can assess comfort, grip, durability, and overall performance in real-world conditions. This hands-on experience helps you make an informed decision, eliminating the guesswork and reducing wasted spend on gloves that don’t fit your needs. At the end of the 30 days, you’ll share your feedback and decide if AMMEX is the right fit for your operation—no risk, no obligation.

The End User Trial Program is designed to empower organizations to upgrade their hand protection confidently. Whether you work in food service, janitorial, automotive, or industrial safety, AMMEX offers tailored solutions to keep your team safe and productive.

Ready to stop guessing and start testing? Join the AMMEX End User Trial Program today and discover why so many businesses trust AMMEX for their disposable hand protection needs.

The Evolving Disposable Glove Market—Why AMMEX is Different

If you are not thinking about making sure that your operation has a consistent supply of disposable gloves in the ever-shifting disposable glove market, then now may be a good time to start.

As we discussed in our Q4 Market Update, the disposable glove market is adapting to new tariffs and logistical challenges in Q4 2025.  Disposable glove buyers will need to be more strategic than ever in selecting the right supplier. The key to success may lie in partnering with an organization that can deliver reliability, quality, and compliance, even as the market continues to shift and adjust.

AMMEX stands out by offering a 98%+ fill rate on all disposable glove products, ensuring customers never run out of gloves—even during periods of high demand or supply chain disruptions. Plus, our unwavering commitment to quality is evident: every shipment is inspected by a specially trained team before leaving the factory, helping prevent issues before they arise.

Preventive compliance is another cornerstone of AMMEX’s approach. We combine ethical sourcing, documented compliance processes, and third-party audits to help customers avoid unexpected regulatory challenges. This proactive stance is crucial as tariffs and regulations continue to evolve.

While the market outlook for Q4 2025 is increasingly clearer, prices will likely remain under pressure from tariffs and rising logistics costs.  At the same time, demand is expected to stay strong across most disposable glove sectors.

With over 37 years in the business, AMMEX brings deep expertise and outstanding service to help all types of disposable glove buyers by establishing redundant operations along with transparent communication to source the right gloves at the right time.

Disposable Glove Market in Q4 2025 – Trends and Challenges

If you find the overall dynamic of the U.S. disposable glove market in Q4 2025 a bit confusing, then you’re not alone. The market is facing a period of dynamic change as we enter Q4 2025. New tariffs, operational costs, and a shifting economic landscape are shaping the industry. Despite these headwinds, demand for disposable gloves remains robust across the medical, industrial, and personal care sectors.

Our Q4 Market Update provides a broad overview of the key trends and challenges – download it or view it on our website here.

One of the most impactful developments is the sweeping tariffs imposed by the U.S. government, particularly targeting imports from China. By the end of Q3, tariffs on disposable gloves from all countries ranged from 19% to 80%, with Chinese imports set for an additional 50% increase in 2026. This has put upward pressure on prices and forced buyers to rethink sourcing strategies.

Global glove production is at an all-time high, with Malaysia and Thailand leading the way and accounting for up to 70% of global supply. However, U.S. domestic production remains limited due to high input costs, regulatory hurdles, and scalability challenges.

Logistics remains in focus, with rising operational delivery costs in the US. As a result, efficiency and proactive planning are more important than ever for glove buyers.

Despite these challenges, the market’s resilience is clear. Strategic sourcing and strong supplier relationships will be key to navigating the months ahead. Learn more in our Q4 Market Update.

Why 100% Shipment Inspections are Critical

Why 100% Shipment Inspections are Critical

Does every disposable glove shipment pass an independent in-person inspection?  Of course not, unless it’s an AMMEX-branded glove.

Quality in disposable gloves is essential, but with hundreds of billions of gloves coming off the line yearly and usage consistently growing, quality rates remain imperfect. While manufacturing processes, raw material, and technology are better than ever, the sheer volume of gloves makes production mistakes unavoidable. AMMEX’s emphasis on rigorous standards and durable gloves illustrates how quality drives safety and user satisfaction.

Specifically, our highly experienced and dedicated team of inspectors based in Southeast Asia works to inspect 100% of shipments personally. Our team visits every factory and tests every container while keeping meticulous records, facilitating audits, and working with our partners to optimize manufacturing processes. Our inspectors are AMMEX employees; most have been with the company for many years.

Why do we do this? In an industry where most companies receive gloves they see for the first time in their US warehouse, AMMEX is different. We understand that each quality issue impacts our customers’ business, reputation, relationships, and trust. Simply put, we invest in 100% in-person inspections by our local teams to prevent quality issues before they happen, minimizing headaches for our clients and saving them time and money.

Most glove buyers will agree that disposable glove quality is non-negotiable. Quality gloves protect health, enhance performance, ensure compliance, offer cost benefits, and support positive user experience. However, it’s essential to understand your glove supplier’s standards and how they handle any related issues and implement improvements. AMMEX does this with 100% commitment and dedication – documented, audited, and in-person.

Three Unique Reasons Why Service Matters with Disposable Gloves

AMMEX sets the standard in disposable gloves with expert reps, fast delivery, and standout service that drives savings, trust, and long-term success.

In the disposable glove industry, exceptional service isn’t just a friendly add-on; it’s a necessity that helps customers buy the right glove. Disposable glove products may seem simple, but most companies routinely offer 40+ product options. Customer service at AMMEX shows that service excellence sets industry leaders apart in three unique ways.

First, an account at AMMEX is actively managed by a dedicated sales representative, who allows for a detailed understanding of customer needs and wants. Our expert representatives can effectively align one of our glove products with the customer’s needs.

Second, our personalized service allows us the opportunity to efficiently explain to prospects and customers why AMMEX is different and what sets us apart from the competition.  From our industry-leading product fill rates to in-person quality control and compliance processes, our service team can offer proof of how AMMEX does things differently.

Third, in a fast-moving market, speed and flexibility matter. AMMEX responds quickly to orders, often delivering within days, and adapts to shifting demands or market opportunities—thanks to agile systems and customer feedback loops.

A real-world example underscores these strengths. Recently, a distributor using AMMEX gloves reversed rising costs by replacing their glove vendor with alternatives recommended by an AMMEX representative. The savings become even more impactful when considering that AMMEX provided higher on-time fill rates to reduce storage costs, improved quality to minimize customer concerns, and tools such as no-cost samples to help make glove user decisions easier.

In a disposable glove market with low-cost options, outstanding service can help distinguish the leader from the rest. AMMEX’s approach demonstrates that service isn’t a luxury in the disposable glove industry; it’s the foundation of customer trust, efficiency, and long-term success.

Silicone-Free Disposable Gloves Are Essential Protection for Auto Paint and Finishing

Silicone-Free Disposable Gloves Are Essential Protection for Auto Paint and Finishing

The most minor details can make the most significant difference in auto painting and finishing. One often-overlooked detail? Disposable gloves. The right pair doesn’t just protect your hands; it protects the integrity of your paint job. And if you’re serious about keeping silicone away from your surface prep and finish, it’s time to take a closer look at silicone-free glove options.

Why Silicone-Free Matters in Auto Paint Work
Silicone contamination is the enemy of flawless finishes. Even trace amounts can wreak havoc:

  • Causes fish-eye effects in paint
  • Interferes with paint adhesion
  • Requires costly rework and delays

AMMEX offers two top products that not only deliver excellent hand protection from paints and solvents, but are also silicone-free to ensure a great finish:

Gloveworks® Orange Raised Diamond Texture Nitrile Gloves (GWON):
These aren’t your average shop gloves. GWON gloves stand out, with their high-visibility orange color and raised diamond texture that delivers unbeatable grip in oily, wet conditions.

Key Features:

  • Heavy-duty 8-mil thickness for enhanced durability and grip
  • Raised diamond grip channels away fluids for secure handling
  • Resistant to chemicals like paints, solvents and cleaners
  • Latex- and silicone-free for clean operations

Download the GWON data sheet here.

Also available in high-res green Gloveworks® Green Raised Diamond Texture Nitrile Gloves (GWGN).

Download the GWGN data sheet here.

Gloveworks® Black Nitrile Gloves (GPNB):
Preferred in many auto shops for their professional appearance, these gloves bring the same toughness in a sleek, low-profile design.

Key Features:

  • 6-mil thickness for excellent barrier protection
  • Powder-free and latex-free to prevent contamination
  • Silicone-free for paint-safe performance
  • Ideal for general shop work, polishing, and cleanup
  • Black nitrile hides grease and grime, giving a cleaner look while staying strong through messy tasks

Download the GPNB data sheet here.

Don’t let your gloves be the weak link when the finish matters. Gloveworks GWON and GPNB offer the safety, performance, and peace of mind auto professionals need without the risk of silicone contamination. Whether laying down a base coat or polishing the final layer, choosing the right gloves is more than protection; it’s precision.

Q3 2025 Disposable Glove Market Update: What Buyers Need to Know

Q3 2025 Disposable Glove Market Update: What Buyers Need to Know

In Q3 2025, the disposable glove market continues to face a mix of steady demand and disruptive challenges. As we discussed in our Q3 Market Update, industry buyers should prepare for potential price fluctuations, mainly due to the impact of tariffs.

While global production capacity, especially in Malaysia and Thailand, remains strong, longer lead times were common in Q2 due to companies trying to get ahead of the tariff-related uncertainty. That could recur in Q3 as some tariffs have been pushed to August, and negotiations on deals for specific countries are likely to continue.

Synthetic rubber prices will likely remain relatively volatile due to spikes in oil prices and overall inflation in energy costs, potentially leading to higher disposable glove production costs. We also continue to see demand for vinyl gloves in the US market.

Geopolitical uncertainty surrounding tariffs adds further complexity. Until more clarity emerges, buyers should expect pricing instability and plan accordingly.

In this environment, sourcing partners offering transparency, high fill rates, and supply chain resilience are critical.  For disposable glove buyers, success in Q3 and beyond will depend on aligning with suppliers prioritizing quality, compliance, and dependable logistics. As market pressures continue, strategic planning and agile sourcing will make all the difference in keeping operations running smoothly.
