October 9, Iselin, New Jersey Conventional chemical protective hand solutions often exhibit limitations in safeguarding against specific chemical types. While one solution may effectively guard against certain chemicals, it may provide inadequate protection against others. Ansell has meticulously engineered AlphaTec 53-002 and 53-003 to address this challenge by providing comprehensive chemical resistance across a broad spectrum.
Industrial environments frequently entail multiple chemical hazards, necessitating varied protective measures. This has historically led to multiple glove types on-site, raising the risk of improper selection by workers and heightened potential for chemical injuries. The requirement for frequent glove changes further compounds this risk, as it may lead to non-compliance with safety protocols and the misuse of gloves across different chemical exposures.
