Surgical gloves – Biogel® puncture indication system

Surgical gloves – Biogel® puncture indication system

Safe gloving, for all situations, all patients and all clinicians

Thanks to a coloured indicator glove that is worn under a neutral one, there is an option to decrease the risk of infections for both clinicians and patients. Our double-gloving solution, the Biogel® puncture indication system, is available in a wide range of gloves: Synthetic Biogel PI gloves, Biogel Orthopro for orthopaedic use and Biogel Eclipse for exceptional comfort and softness.

Available in both latex and synthetic options

Alerts you with visible evidence of a perforation, in the presence of fluid, as it happens

Biogel double-gloving puncture indication system has a 97% accuracy rate in identifying punctures1

Clearer, faster and larger puncture indication system means you can detect up to 100% of punctures

The proof to back it up

Safety first with Biogel

Every Biogel glove (100 %) is air-inflation tested and visually inspected for quality and user confidence. There is AQL freedom from holes in an industry-leading 0.653 after packaging and sterilization. Biogel has a process average typically of < 0,20%. All gloves are powder-free to eliminate starch powder-related complications and reduce allergic reactions.

Clear indication means less risk

Not all gloves are alike – the Biogel double-gloving puncture indication system provides the clearest puncture indication.1 This enables informed decisions about cross-infection.

Every single glove is tested

Every glove is (100 %) tested for holes by air inflation and visually inspected for quality and user confidence prior to packaging.

Saves money

All Biogel surgical gloves are 100% powder-free, which reduces the risk of costly post-operative complications related to powder issues.

Easy donning

The unique Biogel coating on the inner surface makes gloves easy to don, even with damp hands.

Fail less

Competing glove types are at least 3.5 times as likely to fail.3
