Gloves
Disposable nitrile, vinyl and polyethylene gloves for kitchens, labs, janitorial work and maintenance. Not for medical use.
If so, this is the wrong page. Patient examination gloves are FDA 510(k) cleared medical devices and have their own group. Non-medical gloves may not be sold or promoted for patient care.
Food handling needs a glove whose materials comply with FDA food-contact rules. Chemical splash needs a glove with breakthrough data for the chemical in question. Abrasion and grip need thickness and a raised texture. Name the hazard and the glove follows.
Nitrile covers most industrial tasks from about 3 mil to 15 mil, with heavier gauges for maintenance and raised diamond textures for wet grip. Vinyl and polyethylene suit light food handling with frequent changes. Thickness is stated with its measuring point.
Several states restrict natural rubber latex gloves in food handling. Nitrile, vinyl and polyethylene gloves are not made with natural rubber latex. Check your state's food code before specifying latex.
Yes, for every food-service glove. Nitrile and latex glove makers commonly cite 21 CFR 177.2600, and vinyl and polyethylene makers cite the relevant parts of 21 CFR 174 to 178. FDA places responsibility for that compliance on the manufacturer, and the statement comes with your quote.
Industrial gloves come 50 or 100 per box and polyethylene gloves 100 to 500 per pack, so the box price hides the unit cost. Every quote shows the price per case and per 1,000 gloves.

Guide
The words on a glove box are not interchangeable. What each grade means, what proves it, and the questions that tell them apart.
Thickness and weight are different measurements. How to read each one on a specification sheet, and which conversions work.
Sizes, gloves per box and boxes per case all vary. How to read them, and how to compare prices fairly.
