Rubber Product Sensitivity

Rubber Product Sensitivity refers to the allergic reactions some people may experience due to contact with rubber materials, commonly latex. Symptoms can include skin rashes, irritation, or even more severe responses in sensitive individuals. This sensitivity can arise from the proteins found in natural rubber latex or from chemicals used in synthetic rubber production. To minimize risks, people with known sensitivities should avoid products containing latex and opt for alternatives like nitrile or vinyl, especially in gloves and medical devices. Awareness is crucial for ensuring safety and preventing allergic reactions in those affected.
