PETALING JAYA: The global demand for gloves is likely to continue outstripping supply for the next three to four years, even if a vaccine for the Covid-19 becomes available, according to Hartalega Holdings Bhd.

The world’s largest nitrile glove maker says the consumption of gloves worldwide will continue to increase because of changes in user behaviour.
