Where to Buy Latex Gloves
With so many options, it can be difficult deciding where to buy. At BuyGloves.com, we make the choice simple. We combine quality, competitive prices, and an excellent selection of Dental and surgical-grade gloves.
(Note: If you require a 100% allergy-safe alternative with similar strength, we recommend checking our Nitrile Gloves collection).
Powder Free Latex Gloves
Why go powder free? In many medical facilities and food prep areas, powder free gloves are the preferred choice. Sometimes they are even mandatory. This is because the powder on powdered gloves is made of cornstarch and also residual latex proteins which can pose a health threat.
The cornstarch itself may be an allergen for some people, but the real issue is that it acts as a carrier for the latex proteins. This increases the chance of an allergic reaction to the latex which includes hives and itching along with breathing problems.
Medical Exam Latex Gloves (FDA-Compliant)
Our latex exam gloves for medical use are produced in highly regulated facilities that ensure exceptional barrier quality and durability. Each batch is rigorously tested to give you the confidence you need when dealing with sensitive medical tasks, laboratory procedures, and medical waste materials.

Natural Rubber Latex Gloves — What to Know
Latex gloves are made from natural rubber latex — a material harvested from the Hevea brasiliensis tree — which gives them their characteristic stretch, strength, and form-fitting feel. Unlike synthetic gloves made from nitrile or vinyl, natural rubber latex conforms closely to the hand's shape, providing unmatched tactile sensitivity that makes delicate tasks like medical examinations, dental procedures, and laboratory work significantly easier.
Natural rubber latex is also inherently elastic and biodegradable, making latex gloves one of the more environmentally considerate options among disposable glove materials. However, it's important to note that a small percentage of users have a latex protein allergy. If you or your staff require an allergy-safe alternative with comparable performance, our Nitrile Gloves collection offers the same protection without the latex proteins.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
1. What are latex gloves used for?
Latex gloves are an essential safety barrier used in medical settings, food preparation, and various industries. They protect against infectious diseases, medical waste, and cross-contamination between patients or materials.
2. Why should I choose powder-free latex gloves?
Powder-free gloves are often preferred (and sometimes mandatory) in medical and food facilities because the cornstarch powder in other gloves can carry latex proteins. Eliminating the powder reduces the risk of allergic reactions and respiratory issues.
3. Do latex gloves provide protection against viruses and bacteria?
Yes. High-quality latex gloves provide a reliable barrier against infectious diseases and pathogens, making them a standard choice for preventing cross-contamination in healthcare environments.
4. Are your latex gloves suitable for medical exams?
Absolutely. Our medical exam latex gloves are produced in highly regulated facilities and are rigorously tested to ensure they meet the durability and quality standards required for sensitive medical procedures.
5. What is the risk of powdered latex gloves?
The powder used in some gloves acts as a carrier for residual latex proteins. This can increase the chance of allergic reactions, such as hives, itching, or breathing problems, for both the wearer and the patient.
6. What is the difference between powder free and powdered latex gloves?
Powdered latex gloves have a light cornstarch coating inside that makes them easier to put on and remove. Powder free gloves skip the cornstarch, making them the preferred — and often mandatory — choice in medical and food prep settings, where the powder can carry latex proteins and trigger allergic reactions in sensitive individuals.
7. How many gloves come in a case of latex gloves?
A standard case contains 1000 gloves total, packaged as 10 boxes of 100 gloves each. This is the most common bulk purchase format for medical offices, food service operations, and industrial facilities. At BuyGloves.com, cases start at $79.99 with wholesale pricing available for orders of 10 cases or more.
8. Are latex gloves made from natural rubber?
Yes. Latex gloves are made from natural rubber latex, derived from the sap of the Hevea brasiliensis tree. This gives them their signature elasticity, precision fit, and tactile sensitivity. Note that natural rubber latex contains proteins that can cause allergic reactions in some users — if this is a concern, our Nitrile Gloves are a latex-free alternative with comparable performance.
9. What mil thickness are industrial latex gloves?
Industrial latex gloves are typically 4 mil thick — the standard for general-purpose tasks like automotive work, cleaning, and light chemical handling. For heavier-duty applications requiring extra puncture resistance, 5–6 mil gloves are recommended. Our industrial grade latex gloves are 4 mil and available in cases of 1000.
