Sourcing disposable gloves for the Russian market means matching one product family to several very different jobs: food handling, cleaning and janitorial work, laboratory tasks and beauty treatments. A disposable gloves manufacturer for food service janitorial laboratory and beauty in Russia therefore has to offer more than a single SKU — the material, weight, texture, cuff and packing all need to fit the buyer's actual use case. This guide sets out the procurement questions worth settling before you request a quotation, and explains which figures you should treat as indicative rather than fixed.
Start with the task, not the material name
Nitrile, latex and PVC behave differently, and no single material is universally suitable. A sensible approach is to list the tasks your customers actually perform and compare them against the options:
- Food service buyers often weigh fit, tactile feel and the ability to change gloves frequently during a shift. Powdered versus powder-free, texture and cuff length all affect how a glove performs at the counter or in the kitchen.
- Janitorial users typically prioritise coverage and durability across longer cleaning tasks, where cuff length and resistance to tearing matter more than a close tactile fit.
- Laboratory buyers usually focus on consistency between boxes, sizing accuracy and the documentation that their own procedures require. Confirm with your supplier which documents are available for the specific SKU and destination market.
- Beauty applications tend to favour a close fit, a comfortable feel and clean presentation, with packaging that suits salon or retail display.
Junda's disposable programs cover nitrile, latex and PVC, matched by target market, weight, colour, packaging and private-label requirements. You can review the nitrile range and the latex range as starting points, then confirm the exact specification with the supplier.
Piece weight, net weight and carton gross weight are three different numbers
One of the most common sources of confusion in glove procurement is weight. Keep these definitions separate:
- Piece weight is the weight of a single glove, usually expressed in grams (for example, a 4.0 g nitrile glove).
- Net weight is the total glove weight in a carton — piece weight multiplied by the number of pieces.
- Carton gross weight includes the gloves plus the packaging (boxes, polybag, carton board).
The reference values below are model-specific and indicative only. They are user-supplied reference-sheet values, not universal specifications, and must be confirmed against the exact SKU and current packing list before quotation or shipment.
| Reference model | Carton dimensions | Carton volume | Approx. gross weight | Indicative cartons: 20GP / 40GP / 40HQ |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Latex 6.3 g | 39 × 26.5 × 25.5 cm | 0.0264 m³ | ~6.8 kg | ~1,252 / ~2,542 / ~2,883 |
| Latex 5.0 g | 32.5 × 23 × 22 cm | 0.0164 m³ | ~5.5 kg | ~2,006 / ~4,074 / ~4,621 |
| Nitrile 4.0 g | 36.5 × 23.5 × 23.5 cm | 0.0202 m³ | ~4.5 kg | ~1,650–1,800 / ~3,350–3,650 / ~3,800–4,150 |
| Nitrile 3.5 g | 32.5 × 23 × 22 cm | 0.0164 m³ | ~4.0 kg | ~1,650–1,800 / ~3,350–3,650 / ~3,800–4,150 |
| PVC 4.0 g | 36.5 × 23.5 × 23.5 cm | 0.0202 m³ | ~4.5 kg | ~1,650–1,800 / ~3,350–3,650 / ~3,800–4,150 |
The standard reference packing is size M, 100 pcs per box, 10 boxes per carton (1,000 pcs), with all figures approximate and subject to actual loading. Carton gross weight can be estimated as glove weight × 1,000 pcs + approximately 0.5 kg of packaging. Treat every number in this table as a planning aid, not a commitment — confirm the current packing list, carton measurements, gross weight and container loading with the supplier before you book freight.
Why unit price cannot be quoted from a table
There is no meaningful "lowest unit price" without a defined specification. Unit price depends on material, piece weight, size mix, box and carton configuration, artwork, order quantity, destination and freight terms. A 3.5 g nitrile glove and a 6.3 g latex glove are not comparable products, and a mixed-size carton prices differently from a single-size one.
To get an accurate quotation, send the supplier:
- The exact SKU or material and piece weight you want.
- Order quantity, including any size breakdown.
- Packaging and private-label requirements, including artwork files.
- Destination city and port in Russia.
- The Incoterm you are working to.
With those details confirmed, the supplier can quote against a real specification rather than an average.
MOQ, samples and lead time
Junda's buying terms are straightforward:
- MOQ: disposable gloves MOQ 1,000 pcs. Trial orders are welcome.
- Samples: free. The buyer's own international courier collects them from our Guangzhou factory, and the buyer pays the courier directly. Please contact us by email or WhatsApp before booking the courier.
- Lead time: 15–30 days; the exact date is confirmed with the order.
- Certificates: masked previews are shown on the Quality page, and full documents are available on request. Logos or certification marks visible in promotional artwork are not proof of current certification — always request the actual documents for your SKU and destination market.
Payment arrangements follow the quotation and contract. For more detail on these terms, see the buying information page.
Documentation for the Russian market
Exact documents depend on the product and the destination market, and they must be confirmed by product and destination market before shipment. Do not assume that a certificate shown in a catalogue or on a website applies to your order. Ask the supplier to confirm, in writing, which documents are available for the specific SKU you are buying and whether any additional labelling or language requirements apply to your destination.
A practical checklist before you order
- Define each end-use task (food service, janitorial, laboratory, beauty) and the material, texture, thickness and cuff that suit it.
- Confirm piece weight, net weight and carton gross weight separately, and label all figures as indicative until verified.
- Check carton dimensions and container loading against your own freight plan.
- Confirm the exact SKU, current packing list and destination-market documents.
- Request a quotation with quantity, packaging, destination and Incoterm stated.
- Arrange samples through your own courier after contacting the supplier by email or WhatsApp.
Working through these steps turns a broad search into a specification a manufacturer can actually quote against — and reduces the risk of surprises at the loading dock.
