Latex free surgical gloves

Rather than use Henry Schein, I would suggest their subsidiary, Kent Express - the salesmen are aggresively good at cutting prices to match any quote you get. Also good at sourcing kit not in their catalogue - ask for Stefan Murphy.

But I agree the Schottlander softies are good!

TryCare and General Medical are where I order mine from.

Thanks for the advice guys - I think we are going to order them from H. Schein. I've left it in the hands of the head nurse now!

I can't believe I called 6 companies and only 2 of them stock latex free sterile gloves! Madness!

Thanks again guys!

we use nitrile soft touch from schottlander, not too expensive as you get 200 per box rather than the usuall 100

Hi there

I don't know how helpful it is but as I have a latex and nitrile allergy (proteins in all rubber) I use gloves that are polyisoprene mine are called "dermaprene" it's a box of 25 by "Ansell" I work in hospital so I order through procurement so I'm not sure where they are sourced itl be a surgical catalogue I'd expect. There's also a box of 50 polyisoprene gloves although I can't seem to wear them (don't know why though)
If you want me to get specific details for you just message me your email and I'll give you catalogues and prices.

Hi guys!

My practice is currently looking for latex free surgical gloves. I've just contacted Dental directory who have said they don't stock them but can order them in however they are very expensive

Can anyone recommend any or recommend a good company to order some from?

Hope you're all well!

Ali
