The family founded company DASH Medical gloves has been supplying premium Nitrile and Vinyl gloves to wide-spread industries for over 30 years.

Prior to the DASH Medical we know today, The Sullivanfamily formerly had proprietorship of Sullivan Dental Products Inc. However, in 1988, concerns rose involving bloodborne pathogens. Guidelines actively were put in place by OSHA stating latex gloves must be born within dental establishments enforcing protection between a hygienist and the patient, to decrease exposure to HIV infection. With the company having preexisted dental product industry experience and recognizing the heightened demand for latex gloves across several fields, the Sullivan family sold Sullivan Dental Products Inc, and shifted their focus on the new glove company.
