Why Industry Is Swapping “Boxed” Gloves for TechNiGlove_® Rival_® CP 400 Cleanroom Nitrile Gloves

In controlled environments, what you can’t see can be your biggest risk. In laboratories, cleanrooms, electronics manufacturing, and pharmaceutical production areas, contamination often comes from unexpected  sources—most commonly from disposable gloves that are assumed to be “good enough.”

At MDS Associates, we are seeing more facilities move away from conventional cleanroom gloves and toward these innovative cleanroom gloves specifically designed for contamination control, such as the +TechNiGlove Rival® CP 400 (The New Blue).

The Hidden Risk of Cardboard Dispensers in Cleanrooms

Many glove users do not realize the contamination issues that excess particles can have on sensitive products being produced in labs and other controlled environment work areas!

Most nitrile gloves are dispensed from cardboard boxes. Each time a glove is pulled through the dispenser opening, friction creates fiber shed and particle contamination. Those particles or particulates  transfer directly onto the glove surface and into the air—exactly where sensitive processes take place.

The TechNiGlove Rival® CP 400 cleanroom glove is engineered specifically to address the contamination risks associated with boxed gloves—while delivering superior comfort, durability, and value. Unlike standard boxed nitrile gloves, CP 400 gloves are clean-processed and sealed in poly bags, with 200 gloves per bag and 2,000 gloves per case. This packaging significantly reduces particle exposure and helps maintain cleanroom integrity until the moment the glove is donned. And as an added bonus, the latex-free Rival® CP 400 is an accelerator-free cleanroom validated nitrile glove and does not contain thiurams, carbamates, or thiazoles.
