This rating translates the product's published Safety Data Sheet (where applicable), the manufacturer's stated certifications (such as NIOSH approval or ANSI markings), and patterns across verified-purchase user reviews flagged by the retailer. It is informational — not a safety determination for any user, task, or environment. Before using this product, check the certification markings on the manufacturer's label and follow the manufacturer's fit, use, and care instructions. For workplace use, the employer's PPE program and OSHA hazard assessment under 29 CFR 1910.132 govern selection, not this page.

TL;DR EN 374-1 Type B certified 4mil biodegradable nitrile · real 3-chemical barrier floor (30-min minimum), FDA food-safe, EBT-formulated (82% biodegradable per SHOWA testing). AQL undisclosed and per-chemical levels unconfirmed, landing just below Recommended.
A 4mil powder-free nitrile disposable with a 9.5-inch beaded cuff and bisque grip texture. EN 374-1 Type B · confirmed from the product box (CE 2777, SATRA, CAT. III PPE) · establishes a 3-chemical minimum at 30-minute breakthrough, above bare-logo generic nitrile. SHOWA markets it for food prep, lab, and general maintenance. No community tear or sizing data (Amazon unavailable); manufacturer claims second-skin fit.
For detailers, food-service, and lab users wanting EN 374-rated protection in a biodegradable disposable. Skip for sustained solvent contact · per-chemical breakthrough levels unconfirmed; choose Type A neoprene or butyl for brake cleaner or naphtha.
Latex-free, powder-free, no chemical exposure from the glove itself. EBT formulation (82% biodegradable per SHOWA testing); no active take-back program confirmed.
Yes. Per SHOWA's product description and the WebstaurantStore listing data, the 6110PF is FDA food-contact compliant and approved for food handling and food preparation · it's marketed specifically for food service alongside industrial and laboratory use.
Type B means the glove passed permeation testing against at least 3 chemicals at breakthrough level 2 or higher (30 minutes minimum). The classification letter is on the product box (confirmed CE 2777, SATRA-certified). SHOWA's website was unreachable at the time of this review, so the specific chemicals tested and their individual breakthrough times are not documented here · per-chemical data would allow a higher chemical_resistance score.
SHOWA's EBT formulation makes the nitrile 82% biodegradable in 386 days under active landfill conditions per SHOWA's internal test data. Standard nitrile gloves are petrochemical-derived and persist in landfill for decades; EBT adds organic additives that accelerate microbial breakdown. The biodegradation claim is SHOWA-internal (not third-party independent), so the environment lifecycle dimension credits the specific quantified claim without assuming full independent verification.
As of our last check, the product listing (B0CDK342LK) is unavailable. The 6110PF line is available through WebstaurantStore in medium (case of 1,000) and XL (100-box) formats. Industrial distributors and food-service supply companies are also typical sources for SHOWA gloves.
