Meet 1st Glove, India's Indigenously Manufactured Nitrile Glove, at IRGCE 2026
1st Glove exhibited at IRGCE 2026, the 12th International Rubber Glove Conference & Exhibition, from 8–10 September 2026 at the Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre, Malaysia. Our team was at Booth 101, Hall 1, bringing an integrated Indian nitrile manufacturing story to a leading global platform for the rubber glove industry.
Meet 1st Glove
1st Glove is a range of indigenously manufactured nitrile gloves produced in India by Koove IoT Pvt. Ltd., a sister company of Rashmi Group. The portfolio serves medical, research and laboratory, food-handling and industrial applications, with powder-free nitrile gloves designed for chemical resistance, puncture resistance, contamination control and reliable performance. As a latex-free synthetic alternative, nitrile is also suitable for settings where latex sensitivity is a consideration in healthcare and industrial safety settings.
What Makes Our Manufacturing Model Different
As an Indian nitrile glove manufacturer, 1st Glove sits within an ecosystem that extends upstream. Koove Organic Chemicals Pvt. Ltd. produces nitrile latex, giving the group visibility over NBR latex specifications before dipping begins. The value chain connects nitrile latex production with glove manufacturing and quality control, creating greater visibility from raw material to finished glove. Integrated nitrile manufacturing of this kind shortens the distance between raw material and finished product.
Why Integration Matters
Greater control across the chain is a practical advantage, not merely a corporate one. Sourcing NBR latex internally reduces dependence on fragmented external supply and supports tighter raw material control, batch consistency and production coordination. It also strengthens supply-chain reliability, since material availability is less exposed to third-party lead times. For buyers, this is designed to support steadier product standards order after order.
Meet Us at IRGCE 2026
IRGCE 2026 brought together manufacturers, procurement professionals, distributors, researchers, policymakers and business leaders from across the global glove supply chain. Our team was available throughout the exhibition to discuss specifications, volumes, quality documentation and partnership opportunities for medical nitrile gloves and industrial nitrile gloves.
