The slogan of our company SHIELD Scientific, a manufacturer of nitrile and latex disposable gloves, is “Compliance, comfort and protection”. The protection of laboratory and cleanroom workers has always been a key priority, whilst ensuring that we strictly comply with the current regulations and standards and without neglecting the comfort of the users of our nitrile, neoprene/nitrile or latex gloves.
With this in mind, we created twinSHIELD™ technology which underpins all our SHIELDskin CHEM™ and SHIELDskin™ brand disposable gloves as well as our ecoSHIELD™ Eco Nitrile PF 250 laboratory nitrile glove, plus our ultra-clean shieldskin XTREME™ ORANGE NITRILE™ 300 DI nitrile/neoprene glove.
twinSHIELD technology ™ is based on a double dipping process used during the manufacture of disposable gloves and contributing to a double layer.
Each layer has a different colour:
Double-walled for double protection! All SHIELD Scientific synthetic disposable gloves with twinSHIELD™ technology have an AQL of 0.25 (in accordance with ISO 374-2:2019 and according to the sampling procedure ISO 2859-1:1999), which is amongst the most stringent requirements for acceptance of glove defects (pinholes).
In this way, we can offer more protection against chemical and biological risks because: The lower the AQL, the better your protection will be!
Finally, all our disposable gloves that are manufactured with twinSHIELD™ technology are registered as Category III Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) complying with Regulation (EU) 2016/425.
