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. According to the company, the double glove will save time and money for hospitals and medical practices by reducing the time associated with double gloving, reducing the amount of packaging used for single glove sets, and reducing inventory, storage, and waste.
