Enthusiastic Response to Vytex™ Natural Rubber Latex

Since 2005 Vytex NRL has been gaining industry attention from nurses, physicians and administrators participating in focus groups throughout the US and the Vystar Technical Advisory Board, comprised of distinguished clinicians and industry thought leaders.

A latex-safe surgical glove was the number one request when over 40 nursing professionals came together in focus groups in early 2005 to preview Vytex NRL. "When will this be available?" was their enthusiastic unanimous reaction. Across the board, the focus groups agreed that if latex-safe products were available in surgical gloves today, they would want it for their hospital surgical suites.

The nurses described current "Latex-free" glove options as "ill-fitting, expensive, prone to tearing, difficult to double-glove, and foul smelling." In contrast, natural rubber latex's qualities such as tactile sensitivity, elasticity, fit, skin-like feel, memory, low-cost, durability, protection, rupture-free and conforming ranked extremely high on their list of preferred characteristics for a surgical glove.

Vytex NRL, like natural rubber latex, with its green footprint has been overwhelmingly embraced by members of Vystar's Advisory Board. "Feels Good", "Back to Nature", "Adds Value", "Good Environmental Stewardship" are just a few of the ways Vytex NRL was portrayed at a recent board meeting. As environmental concerns continue to increase for the healthcare community, selecting natural rubber latex becomes an easy choice - a natural, renewable resource that is 100% biodegradable and contains no known human carcinogens found in many synthetic materials on the market today. In fact, the Advisory Board members were instrumental in creating Vytex NRL's motto: Created by Nature. Recreated by Science.

Vytex NRL - all the natural rubber latex performance you want and good for the environment too.
