We are pleased to announce the launch of our new range of latex free surgeons’ gloves with effect from WSAVA/BSAVA 2012. The latex free surgeons’ gloves will join the extensive Krutech range of surgeons’, examination and arm length gloves manufactured by Jorgen Kruuse A/S and distributed through Kruuse UK Ltd. KRUTEX Polyisoprene Surgical Gloves are sterile, powder free and latex free; thus minimising the risk of glove-related allergy to latex protein. Manufactured from synthetic polyisoprene that has a molecular structure similar to natural rubber latex; the gloves have a fit, sensitivity and comfort equal to natural rubber latex and are designed to provide increased fingertip sensitivity. Krutech latex free gloves join the existing Krutech range that includes; Vet Gel surgeons’ gloves, Krutech latex surgical gloves, Krutech latex, vinyl and nitrile examination gloves and the widely used arm length gloves range. The new range are supplied in boxes of 25 sterile, single packed pairs and are available in half sizes from 6.0 to 9.0. “After feedback from our customers showed an increasing concern regarding latex allergies amongst clinicians, we were encouraged to develop this addition to our well established range of gloves”, said Andrew Groom Managing Director, Kruuse UK Ltd.
