Synthetic extra-thin surgical glove
Biogel PI Micro
Synthetic (non-latex) surgical glove made 25% thinner for extra feel
Biogel® PI Micro is our thinnest synthetic surgical glove. It’s 25% thinner than regular Biogel PI gloves – giving you extra tactile sensitivity, even when double-gloving.
Biogel PI Micro is a synthetic (non-latex) surgical glove, to reduce the risk of latex-related allergies. Plus it’s sterile and powder-free. The design conforms to your hands like a second skin, with a fit, feel and comfort comparable to natural rubber latex.
You can use Biogel PI Micro alone or as the overglove in a double-gloving Biogel Puncture Indication System – to help protect you and your patients with best-in-class perforation detection 1 2.
