“FOR HANDS THAT MAKE A DIFFERENCE”


The duoSHIELD™ range of exam gloves offer an excellent compromise between optimal quality and cost, thereby providing a solution for laboratory personnel seeking protection against limited risks. Likewise, these gloves fulfill the growing need for increased protection of patients and medical staff in the health sector, hence the reference to “duo” or dual protection.
