An unfortunate fact in the gloves industry is that there are a lot of manufacturers who will cut corners in order to try and compete. Because the industry is very competitive and the per-unit price is relatively low, some companies will produce gloves that actually don’t match up to the best-practice international standards that we hold ourselves to here at Nastah.
Customers who aren’t aware of these standards can find themselves going with the cheaper option and not realizing that they have an inferior product until something goes wrong. And that’s a shame.
So, we wanted to write this article to raise the issue and share some information as to why it’s crucially important that you only purchase gloves that meet the highest of international standards:
Safety
This one should go without saying. Safety is the most important factor when it comes to gloves and you don’t want to skimp in this department.
International standards require a strict level of quality assurance that ensures that the gloves are well-made, robust, and of a suitable safety level for the job at hand.
It only takes one accident to cause an indelible stain on your company and when you go with something that doesn’t meet international standards, you are much more likely to suffer from this.
Robustness
International standards don’t just assure you of in-the-moment safety, they also aim to codify the fact that the gloves should be robust and last for a decent length of time.
When you’re cutting corners, it’s easy to develop a glove that works for a short time, but quickly wears down – encouraging you to buy more much sooner. When you buy a product that meets international standards, the gloves are going to last much longer and you’ll actually save money in the long run. It’s just a better choice overall.
Quality Assurance
When you are choosing a product that is certified as meeting international standards, all of the quality assurance has already been done for you and you can use the product straight out of the box without worrying about anything.
When you’re going with a product that doesn’t meet those standards, the onus is on you to check the quality of each item so that you can be comfortable that they are safe and reliable.
This takes time and resources that are much better spent on your core competencies. The international standards act as your de-facto quality assurance manager – so take advantage of them.
Those are just three reasons why choosing a glove product that meets international standards is so important, but we could have gone on and on. It’s a crucial criteria that should be front of mind whenever you are buying gloves.
