A leader in barrier protection for healthcare professionals and patients alike


Protecting healthcare workers
The last few years have witnessed a rapid expansion of the global medical glove market. A major driver is the increasing awareness by healthcare workers of the need for the protective barrier which gloves offer. According to the World Health Organisation (WHO), among 35 million healthcare workersworldwide, about three million receive percutaneous exposures to bloodborne pathogens (Hepatitis B, C and HIV) each year. As antibiotic resistance spreads, hospitalacquired infections are growing alarmingly. And with cancer rates increasing exponentially, more and more hazardous cytostatic drugs are being handled.The use of high-quality medical gloves is essential to safeguarding healthcare workers and patients alike. Consequently, in spite of constant budgetary challenges, hospitals increasingly use quality as a prime purchase decision factor.
