Avoid chemical related allergies among your colleagues

Hypoallergenic gloves manufactured without the chemicals commonly known as accelerators (thiurams mercaptobenzothiazole, diphenylthiourea, diphenyl guanidine, dithiocarbamates) could literally be career saving for healthcare professionals who suffer from allergic reactions. The NeoDerm® gloves are manufactured in the material polychloroprene (neoprene) and allow allergy sufferers to use Biogel® surgical gloves.

The proof to back it up

No allergic reactions
A clinical study on 25 prediagnosed Type IV allergy participants found no reactions when using Biogel® NeoDerm®.1

Help is at hand for allergy sufferers

The Biogel NeoDerm surgical glove is safe for healthcare professionals susceptible to allergic contact dermatitis (Type IV allergic reactions) and to chemical additives, and it minimises the possibility of glove-related latex protein sensitisation.
