The Manufacturing Process of Synthetic Rubber Gloves

🧤 Rubber gloves are made using ceramic or aluminum molds.

🚿 The molds are thoroughly washed in soapy water and bleach to remove any residue.

💦 The molds undergo a thorough scrubbing with revolving brushes to ensure cleanliness.

🧤 Rubber gloves are made by dipping ceramic molds into a chemical bath to create a coating, then dipping them into warm liquid rubber.

🔥 The dipped molds are dried in an oven under intense heat, forming the rubber gloves.

🖐️ The gloves are then washed, dried, and the cuffs are rolled up for easier removal from the molds.

💡 Synthetic rubber gloves are stickier and require hand removal, while natural latex gloves are easily removed using bursts of pressurized air.

🔎 Each medical glove is stretched and inflated to check for weak spots and holes, and a sample from every batch is tested for leaks.

📦 The gloves are packed in batches of 100 and a cornstarch solution is applied to prevent sticking. The starch also acts as a lubricant for easy glove removal.
