What are vinyl gloves?
Vinyl gloves are also called PVC gloves. These gloves are made of virgin synthetic materials, mainly polyvinyl chloride and phthalate DINP plasticizers, which make the plastic soft and flexible. Vinyl gloves are soft but not flexible and are suitable for low-risk jobs such as food handling and kitchen/household cleaning. Relatively speaking, compared with latex gloves, nitrile gloves, and vinyl gloves, their distinguishing feature is their high-cost performance.
