Making Donning Disposable Gloves a Breeze

Written by The Glove Company | Mar 18, '25

From industrial sites to hospitality venues, workshops, hospitals and construction projects, disposable gloves are a necessary part of the tool kit. But they often refuse to go on properly, leading to wastage, frustration and a gap in worker protection.

 

Workers can’t get them on damp or sweaty hands. They tug the gloves into place over the fingers, leading to rips. Workers abandon wearing gloves altogether, potentially leaving them vulnerable to dirt, pathogens and harsh chemicals.

What’s the solution?

 

Disposable gloves that glide on effortlessly

The Glove Company has come to the rescue with its Easy On technology. Easy On is a surface modification designed to draw moisture away from the skin, providing an ultra-smooth inner surface to the glove that makes it slide easily on and off. There’s no friction, even when hands are sweaty or damp.

 

Easy On is now available in three of The Glove Company’s key product lines, eliminating the frustration of sticky, uncomfortable gloves that are hard to use.

 

Enjoy the Easy On difference in:

  • Microlite® Plus Nitrile Disposable Gloves – lightweight gloves that come with a silky interior and offer extremely fine dexterity. Ideal for when workers need greater feel and touch, such as in healthcare and hospitality. ARTG-registered Class 1 Medical Device.
  • Black Rocket® Nitrile Disposable Gloves with Easy On – industrial quality fully textured gloves, designed for tough industries.
  • Orange Rocket® Nitrile Disposable Gloves with Easy On – textured industrial gloves that are great for low light environments due to their high visibility. The orange colouring also makes it easier to see contaminants on the gloves.

 

The features and benefits of Easy On

Gloves with Easy On are made from nitrile, with zero latex, vinyl or powder.

  • They glide on smoothly whether hands are damp, hot, sweaty, dry, sticky, cold, or wet, and are just as easy to take off.
  • Easy On helps prevent gloves tearing as they slide on, maximising durability.
  • There’s a range of different styles to suit a variety of industries and situations, from materials handling to food handling, manufacturing and working with oil, lubricants and fuel.
  • Easy On allows hands to maintain their optimal pH level, in turn maintaining comfort.
  • The gloves leave hands feeling fresh after removal – no more of those post-glove sticky sensations!

 

The Glove Company Marketing Assistant Jessica van Braam says the gloves featuring Easy On offer excellent performance, and are particularly great for any situation where double gloving is required.

 

“Easy On technology takes away so much of the frustration that can come with putting on disposable gloves,” she says. “Easy On has been a feature of our Microlite Plus gloves for some time. We have so many customers that love it, so we rolled it out to one of our most popular glove brands, the Rockets.”
