Color is important in any discussion of disposable gloves, even if there are no industry standards for different colors of gloves. What makes it important is what you and your company do with it: Creating a color-coding scheme can prove beneficial in a variety of ways, from hygiene to general organization.
Thirty-five years ago, when AMMEX was just getting started, industrial gloves came in essentially two variations: ivory or off-white for latex, and for vinyl and poly, opaque or transparent.
What do you think constitutes superior customer service?
The answers to that question are myriad, of course, and depend largely on the type of business one is referring to. What’s tops in jet engines is different from ubiquitous online retailers or answering the phone at Butterball Turkey’s Thanksgiving hotline.

In a unique way, the disposable glove market continues to work through an interesting set of circumstances initiated by the pandemic. The devil is always in the details and involves looking at operational factors beyond simple price comparisons.
In a world where most disposable gloves have good quality and are readily available, how does anybody choose where to source them?
There are plenty of indicators. But one you absolutely should—and will—care about is fill rates.
Do you work with heavy machinery all day? Are you concerned about hand protection? (Hint: You should be.) Industrial needs for disposable gloves are multifaceted and often of great urgency.
Whether you’re running massive folding machines in a commercial laundry, using tools in countless applications to keep the equipment in top shape—or performing countless other jobs—you need to know your hands are safe. You never know when a sharp edge, abrasive surface, chemicals, or another potentially harmful object or substance could inflict serious injuries.
How much does customer service matter in the disposable glove industry?
To be honest, some folks likely don’t rate it as a prerequisite to doing business. Disposable gloves are a commodity operating in what can be a purely transactional universe. How much for the gloves? Great. Here’s your money. Next?
Cleaning products make our workplaces and homes safer by removing potentially hazardous dirt, grime, germs, and assorted detritus from the environment. But what about the people doing the cleaning?
Hazards are part of the daily routine for janitorial and sanitation workers, who must deal with potentially harmful chemicals that can be found in cleaners for glass, metal, and other substances, including hydrofluoric acid, nitrilotriacetate, and phosphoric acid.
In today’s marketplace, measuring the quality of products is inescapable.
Buy something online? Oh, look—you got a survey email. Send in a product registration card? You, too, are the lucky recipient of a survey. Go to your doctor? A survey is not uncommon. Simply have lunch at your favorite fast-food establishment? Guess what—they want your opinion too.
You probably hear the word “sustainability” a lot these days. That’s a good thing: Sustainability is about creating an equilibrium where we live within the limits of what Earth can provide, to ensure a balanced and healthy planet.
