High performance safety gloves help cut injury costs
October 1st 2006

The Bureau of Labor Statistics states that hand injuries equal about 25% of all injuries reported; most of the time, the absence of gloves or the use of inappropriate gloves have been reported as a reason.

In many working environments employees are frequently exposed to sharp materials such as metal sheets, paper and sharp edges of machines. A glove with a high cut level can offer protection to employees in these situations

Best Manufacturing Europe NV has introduced a glove called BME 101 with excellent cut resistance. Its high comfort, dexterity and cut protection are claimed to cover all worker's needs.

According to Best the gloves and sleeves in the HPT range will provide a highly appropriate level of cut protection, along with an excellent feel and touch offering protection for employees across industry and avoiding the associated costs of hand injuries for the employer.
