High-risk gloves are designed for situations where there is a significant risk of exposure to bloodborne pathogens or hazardous chemicals. These gloves are typically thicker and more robust than standard medical gloves, providing an additional layer of protection. High-risk gloves are essential in emergency rooms, operating rooms, and laboratories where the potential for contamination is high. Their reinforced construction ensures that healthcare workers are protected during high-stakes procedures.

Vinyl gloves are another option, especially for low-risk procedures and examinations. Made from polyvinyl chloride (PVC), these gloves are cost-effective and provide a looser fit compared to nitrile and latex gloves. Vinyl gloves are less durable and offer less protection against chemicals and punctures, but they are suitable for tasks that involve minimal risk of exposure to pathogens. They are often used in non-critical environments, such as administering first aid or handling non-hazardous materials.
