Sempermed Introduces StarMed Plus Nitrile Exam Glove
Sempermed introduces its new StarMed ® Plus™ Nitrile examination glove. StarMed® Plus™ Nitrile is the latest addition to the StarMed ® family (following the StarMed® Latex launch in April 2012 and StarMed® Ultra Nitrile launch in April 2013). StarMed® Plus™ Nitrile gloves are manufactured with a proprietary nitrile formula. This nitrile formula conforms to the hand ensuring an improved glove experience for all end users. StarMed® Plus™ Nitrile provides those in need of hand protection with the most natural feeling glove available in the market today.
Since StarMed® Plus™ Nitrile examination gloves have been expertly manufactured, Sempermed is able to package 300 (250 XL) of these gloves into the same size dispenser box that has typically been used to pack 200 nitrile gloves. Because these are the most efficiently packed gloves offered by Sempermed, the StarMed® Plus™ Nitrile gloves are produced using the Smart Dispense Technology, Single Glove Delivery System®. This packing method is proven to reduce wrinkles and eliminate unnecessary waste, guaranteeing each box is packed to perfection and dispenses one glove at a time. StarMed® Plus™ Nitrile is available in sizes extra-small through extra-large. The product reorder numbers are SMNP301 (size x-small), SMNP302 (size small), SMNP303 (size medium), SMNP304 (size large), and SMNP305 (size x-large).
