Fentanyl is a national health menace. The damage it causes is far-reaching and heartbreaking, and first responders are well aware of the dangers it poses in even casual contact.
Up to 100 times stronger than morphine, this synthetic opioid was developed for managing extreme pain in cancer patients. It has also been subverted as a highly addictive “recreational” drug, added to heroin or mixed into other drugs that pose potentially fatal risks to unknowing victims.
The disposable glove market is in a terrific position. In fact, opportunities for distributing gloves are greater than ever.
Why? Here are four reasons:
Of the most common disposable glove materials, nitrile is far and away the most popular. Latex may have better fit, feel, and comfort—and vinyl may have a lower price point—but it’s difficult to beat nitrile for its all-around appeal.
Nitrile disposable gloves have for years been a popular alternative to latex in many industries, especially those that require more interaction with harsh chemicals and solvents, such as automotive work.
For importers and distributors affected over the last couple years by supply chain dysfunction—in other words, pretty much everybody—the big picture is looking a bit brighter.

The reasons are obvious: Amazing grip. Superior comfort. The barrier protection that 8-mil premium nitrile provides. And the confidence that these gloves will get the job done.
If you thought the global supply chain would in 2022 be back to pre-pandemic status, you might want to reconsider.
