The Unigloves Advanced series of gloves is our promise to those who value their hands highly enough to demand the best quality gloves available.
Advanced Processes
Designed to reflect the demands of the most exacting of industry sectors and benefiting from Unigloves’ proprietary extended hand-crafted manufacturing process, this range of gloves are significantly easier to don and remove without irritating the skin.
To ensure that we produce gloves that are truly suitable for the demands placed upon them, innovation plays a pivotal role in our design process. As a result, we have developed a comprehensive range of proprietary processes that are incorporated into our Advanced series of gloves. These include Cleanse+ requiring gloves to be washed for up to 3 times longer than regular examination gloves and EasyDon, which ensures that gloves are chlorinated on both the inside and outside areas of the cuff to reduce tackiness and improve donning.
However, there is one aspect that is common to all the Advanced gloves – our attention to detail. This is particularly apparent in the hand-crafted element of production which has been perfected over a period of 30 years. In addition to conventional automated manufacturing process, the Advanced series are subjected to an enhanced manual process, and it is this component that is fundamental to creating an exceptionally clean, soft and low-allergy glove.
Advanced Products
From the superior chemical and biohazard resistance of Stronghold to the unique low-modulus formulation of Zero, the first glove free from chemical accelerators, zinc and sulphur compounds, the Advanced series of gloves represents the very best in complex design suitable for use in the most demanding of environments.
High Level of Comfort
The Advanced series of gloves are more comfortable in use than standard gloves, even when worn for long periods, making the Advanced series the preferred choice for professionals seeking the ideal combination of comfort, dexterity and durability.

EN374-4 Degradation levels indicate the change in puncture resistance of the gloves after exposure to the challenge chemical.
This information does not reflect the actual duration of protection in the workplace and the differentiation between mixtures and pure chemicals. The chemical resistance has been assessed under laboratory conditions from samples taken from the palm only and relates only to the chemical tested. It can be different if the chemical is used in a mixture.
It is recommended to check that the gloves are suitable for the intended use because the conditions at the workplace may be different from the type test depending on temperature, abrasion and degradation. When used, protection gloves may provide less resistance to the dangerous chemical due to changes in physical properties. Movement, snagging, rubbing, degradation caused by the chemical contact etc. may reduce the actual use time significantly. For corrosive chemicals, degradation can be the most important factor to consider in selection of chemical resistant gloves.
Before usage, inspect the gloves for any defect or imperfections.
