Aloetouch technology – The Aloetouch Advantage
Your skin is your body’s largest organ and your body’s first line of defense against the environment around you. Healthcare professionals know firsthand the issues of developing dry skin from wearing gloves and washing their hands frequently. In surgery, these hand care concerns are even greater because gloves are worn for extended periods of time. Also, the powder used in many surgical gloves and the scrub solutions containing concentrated alcohol dry out your hands. To help you combat these issues, Medline developed Aloetouch surgical gloves in 2003 utilizing our proprietary Aloetouch technology. Today, Aloetouch technology is available in four powder-free latex styles and three powder-free, latex-free polyisoprene styles.
Similar to our Aloetouch exam gloves introduced in 1999, the surgical gloves are coated with pure aloe vera. As you wear the gloves, your body heat activates the aloe, releasing it onto your hands. By wearing the Aloetouch surgical gloves as your glove of choice, you will help keep your hands soft and moisturized, allowing you to work in comfort.
In hospital surveys, respondents preferred Aloetouch gloves to their current glove and noticed a significant difference in how their hands felt after the trial period. Aloetouch technology is available in seven styles of surgical gloves.
