This is more comfortable than wearing two separate gloves, a common safety practice among surgeons and nurses. The glove can be made of thin layers of latex or polymer while utilizing current powder-free technologies.

The glove was developed by Bio-Barrier, Inc. (Los Angeles, CA, USA), an infection-control technology company. The company holds more than 20 U.S. and international thin-film patents that address new dipping processes for latex and polymer thin films.
