Description
Polyco Bodyguard Powder Free Nitrile Gloves
Polyco Bodyguard Powder Free Nitrile Gloves are blue, single-use examination gloves made from nitrile synthetic rubber, with no latex proteins and no powder. They are best for horse owners, grooms, yard staff, veterinary practices and anyone who needs a comfortable disposable barrier glove for mucking out, feed preparation, grooming, wound care routines and general stable tasks.
