Product Information
Full details
This guide is for healthcare professionals, food service workers, and anyone requiring advanced hand hygiene. The key benefit is the rapid elimination of 99.99% of selected bacteria, significantly reducing infection transmission. A caveat is that efficacy is validated against *selected* bacteria, and it is a Class 1 Medical Device in Europe, not a registered drug. CrossGuard gloves offer superior protection by actively killing harmful particles on contact without active ingredients or leaching, suitable for all food types and compatible with touchscreens. Each box contains 100 gloves.

What is the main benefit of using antimicrobial gloves?
The primary benefit is reducing the transmission of preventable infections by killing harmful bacteria on contact, thereby improving safety and potentially reducing staff illness.

What does it mean that they are a Class 1 Medical Device in Europe?

Troubleshooting
Gloves feel less effective over time
Ensure gloves are stored correctly and have not been exposed to excessive heat or moisture. Check the expiration date if applicable. The antimicrobial properties are non-leaching and designed for long-term efficacy within the product's lifespan.
Difficulty using touchscreen devices
Ensure the glove surface is clean and dry. Some highly specialized screen protectors or extreme environmental conditions might affect conductivity. Clean the screen and the fingertip of the glove.
Allergic reaction or skin irritation
Although made with latex-free nitrile, discontinue use immediately if irritation occurs and consult a healthcare professional. Nitrile is generally a safe material, but individual sensitivities can occur.
Poor grip in wet conditions
While textured fingertips improve grip, extreme wetness can still reduce traction. Ensure proper technique and consider wiping the glove surface if it becomes excessively slick.
