Nitrile vs Latex Gloves 2026: Supply Crunch & Why Your Team Needs a Reliable Supplier Now
Release time:
Apr 17,2026
Southeast Asia & Global Glove Supply Crisis Alert (April 2026)Middle East tensions have disrupted feedstock supply (naphtha/butadiene), pushing nitrile latex prices to a 9-year high. Malaysia’s major manufacturers are facing surging costs, and 5-month new orders for 3.5g nitrile gloves are already priced at $28–30/box.
Japan just announced a 50 million glove reserve release in May to fill the supply gap—but this is a temporary fix, not a long-term solution.
