ABOUT HARTALEGA
We are the world's No. 1 nitrile glove manufacturer.
That's not a slogan. It's a fact.
Every day, our gloves protect healthcare workers, patients, and communities around the globe. Achieving and maintaining that position requires more than just production lines—it requires critical infrastructure operating perfectly, every hour of every day.
