Oklahoma League for the Blind Latex Glove Feasibility Study. Part 1

摘要

The report discusses the potential of a new latex examination glove production facility to be operated by the Oklahoma League for the Blind. The analysis addresses historical and future demand by the federal government, the primary market to be served and the expected profitability of a facility equipped to produce 100 million latex gloves per year. The world market condition for raw latex and examination gloves is currently in a period of dramatic change and uncertainty. The raw material supply problems appear to have been resolved and worldwide production capacity for latex gloves has been increased significantly. The effect that this new capacity will have on supplies and prices will begin to become evident in late 1989 and early 1990.
