Our quality is your protection
Biogel gloves exceed industry standard for force at break, tensile strength and elongation
- 100% every Biogel glove is air inflation tested
- Industry-leading AQL result of 0.65
Accidental exposure to pathogens is real. Everyday
Clinical study results show an exposure rate during surgery of 10.4 per 100 procedures
Double-gloving is proven to reduce the risk of sharps injuries and exposure to blood-borne infections. An unbelievable 92% of glove punctures go unnoticed during surgery, putting surgeons, operating staff and patients at risk of cross infection
A 2014 Cochrane Review concludes that double-gloving reduces the risk of an inner-glove perforation by 71% compared to single gloving
The same Cochrane Review concluded that based on the consistency and large data pool, there is no further need for more or better studies to confirm the enhanced protective effect of double-gloving
Needlestick injuries occur in the NHS each year
The Biogel Indicator System is unique in that it offers vividly visible puncture detection in three proven ways:
- Clear
– The colour of the inner glove is selected based on colour physics, maximising the sensitivity of the human eye. - Fast
– The gloves are designed to make a puncture visible as fast as possible and to ensure that the regions of indication grow quickly. - Large
– The Biogel puncture indication is large and visible from a distance.
The Biogel Indicator System has a 97% perforation detection rate. No other double gloving system has shown this perforation detection rate
The Biogel Indicator System is made up of a dark-coloured underglove and a straw-coloured over glove.
Normally, the over glove blocks out most of the underglove's colour. When fluid gets between the two layers, light passes through the over glove and reveals the underglove.
