Should You Buy 100pcs, 300pcs or 1000pcs Packs?
A Practical Buying Guide for Disposable Nitrile Gloves
If you’re shopping for disposable nitrile gloves, chances are you’ve come across multiple pack size options—usually 100pcs, 300pcs, or even 1000pcs per box. But which size is right for you?
The answer depends on how often you use gloves, what industry you're in, and how you manage your inventory. Whether you're a salon owner, chef, medical professional, or just restocking your home supplies, this guide will help you choose the pack size that makes the most sense for your needs.
100pcs Packs: Perfect for Light or Occasional Use
Best for:
- Individuals & home users
- Low-frequency tasks
- Sampling or trying a new glove type or size
A 100pcs pack typically contains 50 pairs of gloves. It’s a great choice if you:
- Only use gloves occasionally (e.g., light cleaning, cooking, hair dye at home)
- Want to test a new thickness, color, or brand (like Finitex Rose red 3 mil or Black 5 mil gloves)
- Have limited storage space
- Are managing a small team or a temporary setup (pop-up events, seasonal work)
Pros:
- Affordable upfront cost
- Easier to carry/store
- Ideal for quick refills or personal use
Consider:
If you’re switching gloves multiple times a day, you may go through this pack within a few days, making it less cost-effective in the long run.
📦 300pcs Packs: The Sweet Spot for Small Businesses
Best for:
- Beauty salons & barbershops
- Home care workers
- Cleaning businesses
- Small kitchens or cafés
300pcs packs (150 pairs) offer a balance between volume and cost-efficiency. Many of our customers find this size ideal for daily professional use without having to reorder too frequently.
You might want to choose this option if you:
- Need gloves for your team but don’t want to commit to a bulk purchase yet
- Prefer rotating fresh gloves more often without overstocking
- Want to store gloves in multiple stations or rooms
Pros:
- Lower cost per glove than 100pcs
- More convenient for moderate glove turnover
- Good for growing businesses not ready for bulk storage
Consider:
If your business is scaling or you go through gloves fast, consider stepping up to 1000pcs for bigger savings.
🧯 1000pcs Packs: Bulk Value for High-Volume Users
Best for:
- Medical and dental clinics
- Food production & commercial kitchens
- Tattoo studios
- Janitorial & industrial cleaning companies
- Any business changing gloves constantly
A 1000pcs pack (500 pairs) is built for high-volume use and long-term savings. It's the best option when you need reliable supply, consistent protection, and better pricing per glove.
You’ll benefit from this size if you:
- Change gloves between every client, patient, or task
- Have multiple team members using gloves daily
- Want to reduce the frequency of restocking orders
- Have proper storage space (a cool, dry area)
Pros:
- Best value per glove
- Fewer shipping costs and packaging waste
- Less frequent reordering
- Ideal for inventory planning
Consider:
- Requires more upfront budget
- Needs a bit more storage space (we recommend a cabinet or sealed shelf)
