Digitcare Corporation, based in Santa Monica, California, has operated since 1988 as a manufacturer and distributor of examination gloves, offering non-sterile and sterile options in latex and synthetic materials with both powdered and powder-free finishes. The company was founded by Dr. Michael Wool, a clinical AIDS research physician and UCLA faculty member, together with May Sun, whose family owned a latex plantation and glove factory in Malaysia. Early in its history, Digitcare pursued thicker glove designs to improve protection in clinical settings, a concept later supported by a Johns Hopkins study showing low barrier failure rates for Digitcare gloves. Digitcare has targeted the U.S. acute care and alternate-site glove markets, including emergency medical services, with gloves intended for high-risk and specialty applications. In 2018, the company was acquired by Ansell Ltd., a development noted in industry reporting; the arrangement reflects Digitcare's integration into a larger global portfolio. The product line includes niche items such as a long sterile powder-free latex exam glove designed to meet specific clinical needs.
