Do you rotate your glove stock? 🌟Here is why it matters🌟 I received a complaint from a client who uses our gloves the other day. Apparently they were brittle, and tearing easily. Upon receiving detailed information, including the lot number and the customer who had the issue, I determined these gloves were shipped to the client in June 2022. Since then the client had ordered the exact same product, in the exact same size multiple times. What this tells us about the importance of rotating stock: 📦Shelf Life: Nitrile gloves have a shelf life. Over time, they will degrade. Regular rotation ensures you are using the oldest product first, avoiding having expired product in circulation. 💲 Cost Efficiency: Using the FIFO (First In, First Out) method helps avoid having product expire on your shelf, resulting in waste. 🛡Compliance: Using expired product can compromise safety standards. Rotating your stock guarantees you stay compliant with regulations, and minimizes the risk of compromised hand protection.

𝗦𝗛𝗢𝗨𝗟𝗗 𝗬𝗢𝗨 𝗪𝗘𝗔𝗥 𝗡𝗜𝗧𝗥𝗜𝗟𝗘 𝗚𝗟𝗢𝗩𝗘𝗦 𝗔𝗟𝗟 𝗗𝗔𝗬? While nitrile gloves are durable and puncture-resistant, they are most effective over short periods; wearing the same pair all day can diminish their usefulness. The advantage of nitrile gloves is that they are disposable and can be easily replaced. Knowing when to change gloves depends on how you use them. If you handle corrosive chemicals or sharp tools, you may need to replace your gloves more frequently. It’s advisable to develop the habit of replacing nitrile gloves after each task. Once you’ve left the grocery store, finished administering a vaccine, or completed changing a halogen headlight, you can remove your gloves and replace them with a new pair as needed. ***** ***** ***** ***** Keep in touch with us: 🌏 https://ecogloves.vn/ 📲 +84 989 793 847 (Mr. Vuong) 📧 overseas.sale@ecogloves.vn #NitrileGloves #Gloves #ExaminationGloves #IndustrialGloves

You can still register for this upcoming webinar on handling methylene chloride safely, hosted by the Laboratory Safety Institute, LSI and the American Chemical Society!
Experienced Technical Leader | Innovation & Startup Champion | Crafting Impactful Stories in Science | Non-profit Executive
Last Chance to Register!🧤 Ever felt that cool sensation on your hands when handling methylene chloride in the lab? That’s not just DCM evaporation from the gloves—it could also be a sign that your gloves may not be doing their job. Most lab gloves, including nitrile, aren’t fully compatible with methylene chloride, leaving you at risk for exposure. When handling methylene chloride (MC), here’s how to stay protected: - Evaporation can lead to exposure even when you think your gloves are protecting you. - Use two pairs of gloves—an inner layer of polyethylene (PE)/ethylene vinyl alcohol (EVOH) or laminate gloves, and an outer layer of nitrile or neoprene for puncture protection. - Regularly inspect gloves and rotate pairs to avoid breakthrough. We’ll be discussing PPE, engineering controls, and monitoring strategies in detail at our Methylene Chloride Workshop with the American Chemical Society. This is your last chance to register! ➡️ Registration link in first comment Learn how to protect yourself and your team from methylene chloride exposure in the lab.
