Launch of Accessories Division

U.S. Medical Glove Company Launches U.S. Medical Accessories Division Illinois-based division to provide service and support for customers across the world manufacturing exam gloves on USMGC’s proprietary machines HARVARD, Ill., Nov. 7, 2024 — U.S. Medical Glove Company (USMGC) — the only American manufacturer of the machines, components, and chemicals necessary to make nitrile and polyisoprene exam gloves in the United States — announced today the launch of a new division, U.S. Medical Accessories (USMA), to support its growing business of building proprietary medical exam glove-making machines.  The new division, USMA, will exclusively supply USMGC customers with support and service for its machines. This includes supplying the parts, components, robotic tooling technology, laser cutting systems, custom electrical panels, and additional accessories required for manufacturing nitrile and polyisoprene exam gloves.   “Our suite of tools and technology ensures our customers and joint-venture partners can continuously operate our revolutionary machines,” says Alex Todoroki of USMGC. “We understand how crucial it is to minimize any potential interruptions to the manufacturing and production of our life-protecting surgical and medical exam gloves.”  Based out of USMGC’s global headquarters at its 350-acre, high-tech manufacturing facility in Harvard, Illinois, USMA is powered by a workforce of hundreds of engineers, welders, electricians, CNC technicians, and other support staff. A team of customer-service specialists also field support inquiries from customers across the globe at the Midwest campus.  “This level of service and support has never existed in the industry,” says Todoroki. “Before, if you needed a part or had a problem with your machine, you were on your own. Chinese and other foreign manufacturers were not accountable for defects in their machinery.”  USMGC’s machines have transformed the manufacturing of medical exam gloves by building new technology and designing new processes to all but eliminate the inefficiency, waste, and contamination tied to traditional production methods. Compared to conventional models, USMGC’s machines use 11 times less water and 10 times less energy. And their modular design allows for shipment anywhere within 10 days. All machinery is proudly 100% Made-in-America, fabricated with materials, equipment, and components onsite in Illinois.  View the full report here.
