🧤 Accelerators in Gloves: Are They Dangerous? Let’s Clear the Air.

There's a lot of fear (and confusion) around accelerators used in glove manufacturing—and for good reason.

❗ Some older accelerators like MBT and TMTD have been linked to Type IV allergic reactions, particularly in sensitive users.

🧪 Others, like ZDEC and ZDBC, are less reactive and still widely used in high-quality gloves with proper leaching and curing processes.

But here’s the real insight:

👉 It’s not the presence of accelerators—it’s how the gloves are made.
Poor manufacturing = poor safety, regardless of the chemical used.

✅ At CoreGloves, we take it a step further.

We’ve gone completely accelerator-free across our nitrile glove range—designed specifically for users with sensitive skin, eczema, and chemical allergies.

💧 Our gloves go through multi-stage leaching in flowing water tanks
🧤 They're dermatologically tested for high skin compatibility
♻️ And they're manufactured in facilities with clean, low-chemical processes

EN455-5 Is Coming. Will Your Gloves Pass the Test?
Here’s the quiet regulation that will soon shake up the glove world:

➡️ EN455-5 will require full chemical disclosure for all gloves sold
That means: 🔬 No more vague labels

❌ No hidden accelerators
🧪 Full transparency about what touches your skin

At CoreGloves, we’ve been preparing for this from the start.
We’ve always believed in low-chemical, high-integrity production. And we’ve long advocated for bioburden testing and reduced chemical exposure—even before it was required.

This regulation is a win for hospitals, labs, clinics, and frontline workers.
📣 It’s also a wake-up call for glove suppliers clinging to outdated, opaque practices.

Is your glove supplier ready for this?

Quality Control Isn’t a Department—It’s a Culture

Every time we make even a small change to glove production, we run tests, inspect first prints, and revalidate before full-scale manufacturing.
That’s because at CoreGloves, we treat quality as a non-negotiable standard—not a phase on a checklist.

🎯 We’ve created a set of 4 slides to help our partners stay ahead of upcoming changes in glove regulations and QA expectations—especially in light of EN455-5 and bioburden concerns.

If you’re involved in procurement, compliance, or safety, these slides will give you the technical clarity you need.

The $0.02 Savings That Costs So Much More

If you wear gloves every day, you’ll notice the difference within minutes:
✅ A high-quality glove supports your hands
❌ A cheap glove fights back—rips, sweats, itches

The truth? It’s incredibly difficult to make a great glove.That’s why most leading manufacturers (ours included) hold patents on their processes and materials. Quality takes R&D, testing, and responsibility.
But here’s the issue:

The person buying the gloves often doesn’t wear the gloves. So decisions are made based on cost—not comfort, safety, or ethics.
📉 Lower price = Lower labor standards
📉 Lower price = Cheaper raw materials
📉 Lower price = Higher chemical residues, higher risk
At CoreGloves, we made a hard choice:
🚫 No shortcuts.
🚫 No mass-market, “Made-for-discounts” gloves.

✅ Just safe, skin-friendly, ethical protection.
Sometimes it feels like we’re swimming upstream. But we know who we’re doing it for: the people who wear gloves all day, every day.

👉 Has the market gone too far chasing cheap?

05/21/2025

Selling Gloves Without Transparency? That Era Is Over.
Most gloves look the same.
Same box. Same claims. Same promises.
But what’s inside tells a different story.

That’s why at CoreGloves, we lead with transparency. Here’s what that means:
✅ We disclose every chemical used—down to accelerator types
✅ Our manufacturing partners are audited and certified
✅ We show you where our raw materials are sourced from
✅ We talk about labor practices, energy sources, and leaching processes—openly

Because if you don’t know what’s in your glove, how can you trust it to protect you?
Our industry is overdue for this level of accountability.
Let’s raise the bar, together.
👇 Do you ask your suppliers where and how your PPE is made?

What We Learned from America’s Top Researchers 💡🧬
Every glove tells a story—and we heard dozens at the Spring Research Festival 2025.

From , , scientists handling blood samples to researchers working with cryogenic liquids, blood, pathogens, cell cultures the message was clear:

✅ Protection matters. Comfort matters even more.
✅ Double-gloving is common—but not preferred.
✅ There’s a real need for gloves that won’t tear, cause sweating, or trigger allergies.

That’s exactly why we built CoreGloves—to meet these real-world needs with premium nitrile gloves that deliver safety, comfort, and peace of mind.

We walked away not just with feedback—but a renewed mission to support the people protecting public health, one experiment at a time.

Big thanks to the researchers, PhDs, and technicians who welcomed us and shared insights. Your work inspires ours.

Is it always true when all scientists say our lab already have gloves and we are happy? 🔬🧤

Customers dont know what they want until they try them!

Scientists, lab managers, and researchers personally tested CoreGloves at our booth—and the feedback blew us away:

🧤 “The long cuff design is a game-changer for cryogenics.”
🧤 “Feels strong, yet so easy to wear. No more double-gloving!”
🧤 “Exactly what we’ve been looking for—comfortable and protective.”

Thank you to everyone who tried our gloves and shared your experiences. We’re proud to support those working at the cutting edge of science.

Special thanks to the incredible event organizers at U.S. Army Medical Center of Excellence , Walter Reed Army Medical Center, and sponsors like , VWR/Avantor, and many more for making this possible.
