Tillotson Corp. today announced that Cardinal Health has licensed a Tillotson U.S. patent for disposable Nitrile Gloves.
"We are very pleased to have Cardinal Health join almost three dozen U.S. and international licensees of our patent," said Tillotson Vice President Rick Tillotson. Terms of the agreement were not disclosed.
Neil Tillotson and Luc DeBecker developed and patented the Nitrile glove technology in 1990. The Tillotson patent covers technology related to the production of a synthetic rubber glove that relaxes after being donned and comfortably conforms to the contours of the wearer's hand. The patent was reissued in 1997.
