When you think of professions with high injury rates, you most likely turn to such jobs as commercial fishing, logging, or roofing. Janitorial work may not seem perilous—but the injuries jan/san crews suffer should not be taken lightly.
Especially troublesome are hand injuries, which can result in missed work, elevated worker’s comp premiums, and less quality control. A solution can be as simple as ensuring employees have the right glove for the job—something that AMMEX specializes in.
KENT, Washington, April 1, 2023—Today, AMMEX Corp. launched a new lineup of disposable gloves that will help you protect you in the most unusual situations. These gloves are the result of a research and development project spanning 35 years. They will protect you in environments ranging from the office to the garage to outer space.
“These gloves are unlike anything else on the market,” says AMMEX Chief Marketing Officer Andre Chernih. “They will revolutionize the way people view and use disposable gloves.
If there’s a thread that runs throughout AMMEX’s 35-year history, it’s commitment to customers.
Ever since 24-year-old Fred Crosetto started this company in 1988—and at first sold gloves out of the trunk of his car as he built his brand—AMMEX’s focus has been on delivering what customers need, as well as helping them grow their glove sales.
Where were you in 1988?
Maybe already running your distribution business. Or still in school, studying hard to build a better tomorrow for yourself. Or maybe not even born yet.
“I want to sell more gloves.”
“Do you have any issues selling more gloves?”
“Yeah. I don’t know which segments to target.”
Hey, industrial distributors! Are you looking to add a sweet source of profit?
If you’re not selling single-use gloves, you need to start. They’re a lucrative addition to any catalog. Let’s face it: Even if the pandemic is over (it isn’t), hand protection is central to promoting health, hygiene, and safety in any industry.
What’s so interesting about how disposable gloves are made? Quite a lot, it seems.
We frequently get questions about what’s involved in making gloves. We’ve also published a few blog posts over the years describing the manufacturing process, and they’re always among our most popular.
We get a lot of questions about the difference between exam- and industrial-grade gloves.
We also get a lot of questions about Acceptable Quality Level, or AQL. What is it, and how does it apply to disposable gloves?
“Workplace safety” may be a somewhat vague and generalized term, but it nevertheless carries huge significance for businesses of all sizes.
The trend toward workplace safety is clear over the last 30 to 40 years. In 1980, probably 1% of auto mechanics used disposable gloves. In 2022, that figure is much higher—and because it’s still relatively small in the context of the overall industry, there is lots of room to grow.
Why do prices of disposable gloves vary so much between products, and between those who sell them?
Why does inventory come and go? (Those hybrid vinyl/nitrile gloves that you may have loved during the pandemic are much harder to find now.)
