For now, there are regular four types of PE gloves: HDPE, LDPE, CEP, TPE GLOVES.

In the early time, HDPE and LDPE is the main products in food contact in the market.

HDPE gloves texture is harder, LDPE is softer.The weight normally HDPE will make lighter weight , LDPE would be at least around 1G to keep the strongerness.

From 2000, a new PE gloves appreared in the maker, it is CPE gloves .It is heavier, so it is much durable and stronger than HDPE, LDPE gloves .If you found HDPE, LDPE glvoes are easy to be broken, then CPE is a new choice for you, however it is still hard texure. Then 2009, there is a new material PE developed for the new demand--TPE gloves, soft and strong, more of elasticity.
