Description
The Harps Semperguard Sapphire XP Black puts an exam-grade black nitrile glove on staff who need chemo-tested barrier protection without giving up grip or a clean professional look. The case format carries 10 boxes, which keeps pars level across every room that draws from it.
Main Description
The sleek black color presents a professional appearance and masks inks, dyes and grime during wear. Texturing in the finger area delivers a secure grip on instruments and packaging in wet or dry conditions. The glove is tested against chemotherapy and hazardous drugs, fentanyl and gastric acids, which extends it beyond routine exam use. An AQL below 1.0 for pinholes reflects exam-grade barrier quality from the production line. Each case holds ten boxes of 100 gloves in sizes Small through X-Large.
