The Supreno SE is formulated to minimize accelerator content, significantly reducing the risk of Type IV delayed hypersensitivity reactions in users who can't tolerate standard nitrile. Powder-free, textured, and suitable for medical-adjacent laboratory and healthcare environments. If you have experienced redness, itching, or contact dermatitis from standard nitrile gloves, this is the product category to evaluate.

Type IV contact dermatitis from nitrile gloves — characterized by redness, itching, or a rash appearing hours after glove removal — is caused by residual accelerator chemicals, not nitrile itself. Accelerator-free or accelerator-reduced gloves like the SU-690 Supreno are the specified solution.
