Cardinal Health Launches New Latex-Free Flexal Feel Nitrile Exam Gloves
Cardinal Health announces the launch of Flexal® Feel Nitrile Exam Gloves, the lightest-weight glove in its exam glove portfolio.
Flexal® Feel Nitrile Exam Gloves offer the comfort and protection of a nitrile glove with the tactile sensitivity of a latex one. Their form-fitting, lighter feel promotes natural hand movement.
A powder-free addition to Cardinal Healths exam glove portfolio, Flexal® Feel Nitrile Exam Gloves also feature a textured fingertip that provides enhanced grip over traditional nitrile gloves without compromising reliability or durability.
"We continue to innovate our product portfolio to provide solutions that will help our customers provide quality care, and were pleased to offer this alternative in Flexal® Feel Nitrile Exam Gloves," says Mike Duffy, president of Medical Consumables.
Flexal® Feel Nitrile Exam Gloves also provide an environmentally friendly alternative to latex and nitrile gloves currently available in the market. As the lightest weight nitrile glove in the Cardinal Health exam glove portfolio, the gloves are packaged 300 per box (250 per box for size XL), helping reduce waste by packaging more gloves per box than most other exam gloves. The box dimensions remain the same and fit standard glove box holders.Â
The newest addition to the Cardinal Healths exam glove portfolio, Flexal Feel Nitrile Exam Gloves complement the Esteem®, Flexal® , Flexam®, and InstaGard® product lines and the companys Protexis family of market-leading surgical gloves.
