Non-latex gloves are disposable gloves made with materials free of natural latex rubber.Natural latex is widely used for disposable gloves, not only due to it's reasonable cost and extremely flexible,but also making the gloves comfortable to wear.While latex gloves may cause allergic to some people due to natural latex rubber protein,then people develop alternatives to latex gloves--Non-Latex Gloves.

Besides, they tend to be more expensive than latex gloves, such as nitrile gloves.

Non-latex gloves come in a range of colors, textures, and sizes. 

Many companies try to use very distinctive colors for their gloves so that it is easy to identify the latex-free gloves in a hurry, and latex-free gloves may also be stored in a different location to ensure that they are not confused with latex gloves.
