<p>A device 1 for dispensing gloves 26 comprising a container 25 having an internal volume that holds a stack of gloves 5, a dispensing aperture 3 in the container for allowing a user to pull out a topmost glove from the stack of gloves 5, and at least one edge 7 and/or surface adjacent the aperture that is externally exposed to user contact when a glove is pulled from the stack of gloves 5. A spacing means 4 is provided to provide a gap between the topmost glove and the edge 7 and/or surface adjacent the aperture that is externally exposed to user contact. A separate embodiment shows spacers used on both the upper and lower internal surfaces (104,11). The present invention relates to a device and method by which gloves to be used in an environment where hygiene is important can be prevented from becoming contaminated on dispense from a container.</p> |
