If you are sourcing disposable examination or general-purpose gloves for a US distribution, food-service, janitorial or light industrial program, the search for the lowest unit price MOQ and quotation for vinyl gloves in United States usually ends in a spreadsheet comparison. That comparison is only useful if every line item is quoted on the same basis. This article explains what actually drives the number, which values are model-specific, and what to confirm before you commit to a purchase order.
Why the lowest unit price is not a single number
Vinyl (PVC) gloves are quoted per piece, per box or per carton, and the "lowest" price depends entirely on the specification behind it. A glove at one piece weight is not comparable to a glove at another, even when both are described as "4 mil" or "medium." Piece weight, size mix, box count, carton configuration, artwork and order quantity all move the unit price.
For that reason, Junda does not publish a numeric lowest unit price. Unit price depends on material, piece weight, size mix, box and carton configuration, artwork, order quantity, destination and freight terms. The practical path is to request a quotation against a defined specification, then compare like for like.
The quotation variables that move your unit price
When you request a quotation, these are the inputs that determine the result:
- Material and grade — vinyl/PVC formulation for general examination, cleaning or light-duty handling.
- Piece weight — the single largest cost driver in a disposable glove. Heavier pieces use more compound.
- Size mix — S, M, L, XL ratios affect how material is allocated across a production run.
- Box and carton configuration — pieces per box, boxes per carton, and whether you need retail-ready or bulk packing.
- Artwork and branding — printed boxes or cartons add setup and material cost.
- Order quantity — larger runs spread fixed costs further.
- Destination and freight terms — port of discharge, inland delivery and Incoterm change the landed comparison.
- Documentation requirements — destination-market documents must be confirmed before quotation.
If any of these are left open, two suppliers can quote the "same" glove and still be 20–30% apart. That gap is usually specification, not margin.
MOQ for disposable gloves: what Junda actually offers
Junda's disposable gloves MOQ is 1,000 pcs, and trial orders are welcome. This applies to disposable glove programs generally, including vinyl/PVC and disposable glove lines. If you are testing a specification before committing to a container program, a trial order is the sensible first step.
For buyers running a broader glove program, Junda's other buying terms are:
- JUNDA own-brand latex protective gloves — in stock from 10 cartons (2,000 pairs).
- OEM latex protective gloves — natural colour 300 cartons (60,000 pairs); other colours 100,000 pairs.
These terms are fixed and apply as written. If your question is about MOQ, samples, lead time or how orders are structured, the buying terms page is the right reference.
Indicative packing and loading values (model-specific)
The following values come from a user-supplied reference sheet for one specific vinyl glove model. They are indicative and model-specific, not universal specifications. Confirm the exact SKU, current packing list, carton measurements, gross weight, container loading and destination-market documents before quotation or shipment.
| Item | Reference value (indicative) |
|---|---|
| Glove | Disposable vinyl (PVC), 4.0 g, size M |
| Box | 100 pcs/box |
| Carton | 10 boxes/carton (1,000 pcs) |
| Carton dimensions | 36.5 × 23.5 × 23.5 cm |
| Carton volume | 0.0202 m³ |
| Carton gross weight | approx. 4.5 kg |
| 20GP loading | approx. 1,650–1,800 cartons |
| 40GP loading | approx. 3,350–3,650 cartons |
| 40HQ loading | approx. 3,800–4,150 cartons |
Container loading figures are approximate and subject to actual loading. A different piece weight, box count or carton size will change every number in this table.
Piece weight, net weight and carton gross weight are not the same
This is one of the most common sources of quotation disputes.
- Piece weight — the weight of a single glove, e.g. 4.0 g. It drives material cost and is the specification you should quote against.
- Net weight — the total weight of the gloves in a carton, excluding packaging. For 1,000 pieces at 4.0 g, net weight is approximately 4.0 kg.
- Carton gross weight — net weight plus boxes, carton, labels and any inserts. In the reference model above, gross is approximately 4.5 kg, so packaging accounts for roughly 0.5 kg.
When a supplier quotes "4.5 kg carton," confirm whether that is gross or net. When a buyer asks for "4 g gloves," confirm whether that is the piece weight or an average across sizes. Getting this wrong changes both the price and the freight calculation.
How to compare quotations fairly
To compare two vinyl glove quotations on a true like-for-like basis:
- Fix the piece weight and tolerance.
- Fix the size mix.
- Fix pieces per box and boxes per carton.
- Confirm whether artwork is included.
- Confirm the Incoterm and port of discharge.
- Confirm which destination-market documents are included.
- Confirm lead time and the date it is measured from.
Only then does the unit price comparison mean anything. A quotation that is silent on any of these points is not yet a quotation — it is an estimate.
Samples, lead time and documents
Samples are 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 so the collection is coordinated.
Lead time is 15–30 days. The exact date is confirmed with the order.
Certificates — masked previews are available 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. Exact documents must be confirmed by product and destination market.
Payment terms follow the quotation or contract.
What to send when you request a quotation
To get a usable quotation for vinyl gloves in the United States, send:
- Exact SKU or the specification you want quoted (material, piece weight, size mix)
- Target quantity, and whether you want a trial order first
- Box and carton configuration, or confirmation that you will accept our standard
- Artwork requirements, if any
- Destination city and port
- Required Incoterm
- Any destination-market documentation you need confirmed
With those inputs, we can quote against a defined specification rather than a generic description. Browse the medical PVC gloves and disposable gloves ranges for the product families available, then contact us by email or WhatsApp with your requirement.
