DIPPING
Thousands of ceramic hand formers are first washed by dipping in hot water. They are then dipped into a coagulant tank that contains process chemicals. Finally they are ready for dipping in the latex tank. These formers then pass through an oven where the liquid latex forms into gel.
LEACHING
The formers then run through three long pre-vulcanization leaching tanks to remove excess chemical residue and latex protein, with hot water counter-flowing continuously against the formers as they pass through.
VULCANIZATION
These formers later pass into a vulcanization oven. The heat removes moisture and the latex gel hardens to form into latex gloves. The formers then pass through a post-vulcanization leaching tank, which is the MOST important step, but unfortunately not utilized by all manufacturers, to further remove latex protein and chemical residue from the gloves. The gloves then pass through another drying oven before being stripped from the formers either by hand, or by an air-ejection machine. The gloves are last placed into tumble dryers for final vulcanization process.
