What are Accelerator-Free Nitrile Gloves?

Accelerator-free nitrile gloves are defined by their absence of chemical accelerants in the production process, distinguishing them from traditional nitrile gloves. Accelerators are chemicals added to traditional nitrile gloves during production to expedite the vulcanization process, ensuring the material’s durability and strength. However, concerns about skin allergies and environmental sustainability have prompted a shift towards accelerator-free nitrile gloves. By eliminating these chemicals, accelerator-free gloves offer a safer alternative for both users and the environment.

Advanced Allergy Prevention and Increased Comfort

Ansell Infographic

Allergic reactions to chemical residues from the glove manufacturing process may produce Type IV allergy or allergic contact dermatitis. Symptoms often exhibit between 6 to 48 hours after initial contact with the glove and may persist for up to 4 days. They include skin redness, blistering, oozing, swelling, and itching.
