Chemical-Resistant Gloves for Laboratories
PharmShield chemical-resistant gloves for laboratories are powder-free, latex-free nitrile gloves tested to EN 374 for splash and incidental contact with the acids, bases, fixatives and organic solvents handled at analytical, QC and R&D benches. They are tested to EN 374, not sold as immersion gloves: chemical protection is matched to a published breakthrough time for a defined chemical, so you choose the right glove for the reagent rather than trusting one rating for everything. Sterile grades are available for chemical work on culture and cleanroom benches. If you're matching glove chemical protection to a lab protocol, this is the starting point.
Chemical-Resistant · LaboratoriesWhy laboratories need chemical-resistant gloves
Lab chemical protection is about permeation and selection — different reagents pass through a glove film at very different rates, so the right answer is reagent-specific, not generic. Chemical-resistant nitrile is engineered against four concerns.
EN 374 tested for the bench panel
PharmShield nitrile is tested to EN ISO 374 against a defined panel of chemicals covering common acids, bases and solvents. We call it tested, not blanket-certified, and match it to the chemistry on your bench.
Splash protection, reagent-matched
These gloves protect against splashes and incidental contact at sample scale. Because permeation is chemical-specific, we help match your reagents to the relevant breakthrough time rather than assuming one glove suits every solvent.
Not for immersion
They are not designed for hands-in-beaker immersion. For prolonged contact, the chemical must be matched to a sufficient breakthrough time, or a heavier specialist glove specified for the task.
Clean, low-extractable handling
Powder-free, double-chlorinated, low-extractable nitrile protects sensitive assays while it protects the hand — and individually packed sterile grades are available for culture and cleanroom chemical work.

They are tested to EN ISO 374 against a defined panel covering common laboratory acids, bases and solvents, for splash and incidental contact. Because permeation is chemical-specific, the right approach is to match each reagent to its breakthrough time — we help with that selection rather than implying universal protection.
No. They protect against splash and incidental contact at the bench, not immersion. For prolonged contact you must match the chemical to a sufficient breakthrough time or specify a heavier specialist glove rated for that task.
Yes. PharmShield nitrile is powder-free, double-chlorinated and low in ionic extractables, so it protects sensitive assays from contamination while protecting the hand from chemicals — and sterile grades are available for culture and cleanroom benches.
