Ansell Disposable Gloves

Ansell Disposable Gloves: Engineering That Goes Beyond the Basics

When protection can't be compromised, Ansell has long set the standard for what a disposable glove can and should do. With roots stretching back over 130 years, Ansell has evolved from a rubber-goods innovator into one of the world's most trusted names in hand protection — and nowhere is that engineering expertise more apparent than in their lineup of disposable gloves.

What separates Ansell from generic disposable glove manufacturers is a commitment to purpose-built design. Rather than offering a one-size-fits-all solution, Ansell engineers each product series to address a specific combination of hazards, dexterity demands, and industry requirements. The result is a catalog that spans automotive shops, chemical laboratories, food processing facilities, and cleanroom environments — all under rigorously tested product families.

Signature Product Lines

The TouchNTuff® series stands as Ansell's flagship disposable glove family. The TouchNTuff® 92-600, for instance, is built around proprietary TNT™ Chemical Splash Resistance Technology and is widely regarded as a leader in chemical splash protection for disposable applications. The glove is Dermatest™ certified to support reduced skin irritation risk and is silicone-free — a critical feature for automotive and finishing work where contaminant transfer can ruin paints and coatings.

For those working with particularly aggressive solvents, the TouchNTuff® 93-800 breaks new ground: working with acetone once forced a choice between bulky chemical gloves for protection or disposables for dexterity. Ansell engineers broke that trade-off, developing the TouchNTuff™ 93-800 — the first disposable glove to offer 15+ minutes of protection without sacrificing control. It features a TÜV-certified bio-based formulation containing over 60% bio-based carbon , making it a smarter choice for environmentally conscious workplaces.

The MICROFLEX® line rounds out Ansell's disposable glove portfolio with an emphasis on tactility and extended cuff options. The MICROFLEX® 93-260 offers a three-layer design for resistance to harsh chemicals and stands as the thinnest chemical-resistant disposable glove available for tactility and dexterity. For laboratory and clinical users, the MICROFLEX® 93-243 features an elbow-length cuff designed to prevent roll-down and minimize the risk of cross-contamination, with a textured palm and fingers for a more confident, secure grip on instruments and glassware.

Key Technologies That Set Ansell Apart

• TNT™ Chemical Splash Resistance Technology – Found in the TouchNTuff® 92-600 and 92-605 for superior barrier integrity against chemical hazards.
• ANSELL GRIP™ Technology – Lab tests show 80% less finger force and 33% less palm force is required to hold objects, helping workers handle wet, dry, or oily equipment with far less effort.
• MICROCHEM™ Chemical Barrier Technology – This innovative multi-layer design provides enhanced protection against ketones and chemicals, eliminating the need to don multiple gloves.
• Material choices – Nitrile disposable gloves for chemical and puncture resistance, or neoprene disposable gloves for enhanced flexibility and protection against a broad range of substances.

Certifications and Standards

Ansell's MICROFLEX® line meets EN 374 Type A certification in Europe and KOSHA certification in Korea, with low AQL ratings (0.65) that mean minimal pinhole defect risks. Many models in the TouchNTuff® series carry EN388 certification for abrasion resistance, ensuring the gloves stand up to the physical stresses of real-world use — not just chemical threats.

Sustainability Built In

Ansell Earth offers high-performance PPE designed with sustainability in mind — incorporating recycled materials, optimizing resources, and lowering carbon footprint while maintaining the same trusted protection. Several disposable glove models are certified by Intertek for diverting over 99% of waste from landfill during manufacturing, so choosing Ansell means protecting both hands and the environment.

Whether you're working under a vehicle, in a paint booth, or handling hazardous materials in a lab setting, Ansell's disposable gloves deliver a level of engineered protection that generic alternatives simply can't match.
