If you are evaluating a PVC gloves manufacturer for food preparation general examination and cleaning in South Korea, the buying decision usually comes down to more than a unit price. Korean importers and distributors typically need a supplier who can match a defined piece weight, size mix, box and carton configuration, and destination documentation — and who can confirm all of it in writing before the order is placed. This guide explains what to confirm, how to compare offers, and which variables drive the quotation.
Start with the task, not the product name
"PVC gloves" covers a wide range of disposable vinyl gloves used across food preparation, general examination and light cleaning. Before comparing suppliers, define the actual task:
- Food preparation and handling: consider whether the glove needs to be powder-free, how much tactile sensitivity the task requires, and whether the cuff length suits the work. Confirm with your own food-safety and regulatory advisors which glove type is acceptable for your market and application.
- General examination: buyers often prioritise fit, clarity and consistent piece weight. Note that "examination" claims may carry regulatory implications in Korea — confirm the required product classification and documents with your importer or regulatory advisor.
- Cleaning and light-duty handling: thicker piece weights and a longer cuff may be preferred for durability, but this should be matched against the task rather than assumed.
Junda's disposable PVC program is built for general examination, cleaning and light-duty handling. Clarity, size, weight and packaging can be matched to the project. Exact suitability for your task should be confirmed against samples and your own requirements.
What to confirm before you request a quotation
A useful quotation request gives the supplier enough detail to price accurately. Prepare the following:
- Exact SKU and material — confirm you are quoting disposable vinyl (PVC), not nitrile or latex.
- Piece weight — the weight of a single glove, which drives material cost and feel.
- Size mix — how many pieces of each size per box and per carton.
- Box and carton configuration — pieces per box, boxes per carton, and whether you need retail-ready artwork.
- Order quantity — total pieces and expected repeat volume.
- Destination and Incoterm — port or door, and the freight terms you want quoted.
- Documentation — the certificates and test documents your Korean importer requires.
Piece weight, net weight and carton gross weight are not the same
This is one of the most common sources of confusion in glove procurement. Keep the three figures separate:
- Piece weight is the weight of one glove (for example, a 4.0 g model).
- Net weight is the total weight of the gloves in a carton, excluding packaging.
- Carton gross weight includes the gloves, boxes, polybags and the carton itself.
Suppliers should state which figure they are quoting. A carton gross weight that looks heavy relative to piece count may simply reflect packaging, not a heavier glove.
Indicative reference values (model-specific)
To help you plan, here is one reference configuration from Junda's disposable vinyl (PVC) range. These are user-supplied reference-sheet values, 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) |
|---|---|
| Material | Disposable vinyl (PVC) |
| Piece weight | 4.0 g |
| Size | M |
| Packing | 100 pcs/box, 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 figures are approximate and subject to actual loading. If your project uses a different piece weight, size mix or box count, the carton and loading figures will change — ask for a configuration-specific packing list.
How the unit price is built
There is no single "lowest price" for PVC gloves, and any supplier who quotes one without your specification is guessing. Unit price depends on:
- material and piece weight;
- size mix;
- box and carton configuration;
- artwork and printing requirements;
- order quantity;
- destination port and freight terms;
- the Incoterm you choose.
Because these variables interact, the practical step is to send your specification and ask for a written quotation. Junda does not publish a numeric lowest unit price without a current approved quotation for the specific configuration.
MOQ, samples and lead time
- 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.

Documentation and certification: verify, don't assume
Certificates matter for Korean imports, but logos printed on promotional artwork are not proof of current certification. Junda shows masked certificate previews on the Quality page, and full documents are available on request. Always confirm that the exact documents your destination market requires — and that they apply to the exact SKU you are ordering — before you commit. Requirements vary by product classification and by importer, so confirm with your Korean importer or regulatory advisor.
Comparing suppliers: a short checklist
When you shortlist a PVC gloves manufacturer for food preparation general examination and cleaning in South Korea, ask each supplier to provide:
- a written specification for the exact SKU (material, piece weight, size, packing);
- a current packing list with carton dimensions and gross weight;
- container loading estimates for your order quantity;
- the documentation list for your destination market;
- a quotation that states the Incoterm and validity period.
Suppliers who answer these in writing are easier to compare than those who quote a single headline price.
