Update … development of disposable gloves

We previously informed you about the consequences of the corona virus and its impact. The coronavirus outbreak has led to unprecedented global demand for personal protective equipment (PPE) and this demand is growing every day. Majestic is also experiencing an explosive increase in demand for these products, while the supply from suppliers is currently minimal and uncertain.

A lot of PPE is produced in the affected areas in the Far East, just like the raw materials and semi-finished products for this.

As a result, both the availability and prices of our range are hit hard. Especially in the field of disposable gloves, but also disposable clothing and protective clothing.

As a result, we are confronted with the following effects:

• Delivery times are longer than normal and in several cases not yet known;
• Rising purchase prices as a result of scarcity in raw materials, packaging materials and strongly increasing freight costs;
• These increases are also passed on to us for orders already placed;
• We are constantly working to purchase additional products where available in order to supply you as well as possible.

In connection with the above, we feel compelled to state the prices for disposable gloves on our price lists. If the prices are adjusted during the term of the price list as a result of the above reasons, we will inform you about this in good time before proceeding to delivery.

For the record – as we previously informed you – this means that for all open orders and quotations the prices that are in effect at the time of delivery are used.

These are special times that have consequences. We therefore find it very annoying that these exceptional circumstances force us to take these unpopular measures. We fully realize that this also has consequences for you and your customer. Nevertheless, we trust your understanding in this. We monitor the situation on a day-to-day basis and hope to be able to reverse these (temporary) measures as soon as market conditions permit.

In the era of Industry 4.0, assistive technology devices have completely transformed the way that manufacturing- or production-related industries operate. These mobile touchscreen devices have quickly become a vital component in today’s fast-moving work environment. Yet some workers remain ill-equipped and can still be seen removing and re-donning work gloves throughout their shift.

HyFlex^® 11-819 ESD is a lightweight work glove ideal for workers who perform precision tasks while interchanging between touchscreen devices. These workers would need a glove to protect against electrostatic discharge that may damage sensitive electronic components, especially when working in electronic product manufacturing. With enhanced ergonomics and mechanical protection in a skin-friendly material, this glove offers the perfect combination of comfort and dexterity to improve overall worker safety and productivity.

Equipped with ultra-thin FORTIX™ nitrile foam coating and ZONZ™ Comfort Fit Technology, this highly-breathable and extremely comfortable glove delivers excellent grip and long-lasting protection, while maintaining barehand sensitivity. Ansell’s ERGOFORM™ Ergonomic Design Technology, also provides an ergonomic fit that ensures maximum range of motion in a variety of work applications.

New guidelines for safety clothing for road workers.

Since January 1, 2021, there are new guidelines regarding safety clothing for road workers. For example, the CROW (Center for Regulations and Research in Ground, Water, Road Construction and Traffic Engineering) has tightened the requirements for the design and color of signal clothing and more attuned to Rijkswaterstaat guidelines. From now on, the color of signal clothing for road workers should be fluorescent orange-red. These new guidelines are laid down in the document “Work in Progress 96a and 96b”. The GCVB (Governance Code Safety in Construction) has adopted this guideline from the CROW in their policy document.

According to the new guidelines, road workers should wear at least an orange-colored RWS safety vest or T-shirt with short sleeves in daylight that complies with EN ISO 20471 class 2. In darkness and other circumstances, the guideline is an orange-colored RWS jacket, suit, overalls , long-sleeved shirt or sweater that complies with EN ISO 20471 class 3, such as the following items:

Art. nr. 2.45.837.00

Art. nr. 2.45.817.00

Art. nr. 2.45.707.00

Art. nr. 2.45.567.00

The new CROW guidelines apply to all work around the road. However, employers are not obliged to follow these guidelines. They must first make a risk inventory that shows which class EN ISO 20471 applies. In addition, the CROW applies a transition phase until 1-1-2026 and the GCVB until 1-1-2022.

By opting for RWS safety clothing, however, one immediately complies with the new guidelines that benefit safety. Click HERE to view all fluorescent orange signal clothing on our webshop.

Get home safely. Involved with our environment.

“PROTECT WHAT REALLY MATTERS”… that Majestic corporate philosophy gives us the energy to do everything we can to get you home safely to your loved ones at the end of the day. Based on expertise and infectious enthusiasm, we ensure that you do not have to worry about which PPE to apply, how and when. We provide the solution and the right PPE, so that you can safely and comfortably practice the profession you love so much. This time we walk with installation technician Johan.

For a new apartment complex to be built, experienced rot Johan will be working on laying central heating pipes in the coming period. This is not an everyday job for Johan, as he has been active as an independent central heating maintenance technician for many years. This is really something different for him. A job also involving numerous dangers in the field of work that can damage Johan’s health. Because he is going to be on a construction site, his basic PPE equipment must already be quite extensive. Together with Johan we scan the environment in which he will be working and we give him solid PPE advice that meets the set standards. In this way we limit the risks of injury to a minimum. Below our PPE advice.

Knijnenburg-Zwirs works with the Oxxa® X-Grip 51-000 glove.

Majestic would like to get in touch with the users of our PPE. How do they experience the products and in which activities are they used? This time we speak with greenhouse demolition company Knijnenburg-Zwirs B.V. and in particular with work planner Paul de Ruijter.

Grip

“In addition to demolishing existing greenhouses, for example to create space for horticultural companies that want to renew, we also do damage repair. Think of storm or hail damage, but also construction and / or facade damage. ” Paul says that it is important for colleagues in the field that they can work safely, comfortably and therefore productively. “The OXXA® gloves play an important role in this. In both dry and wet conditions, we don’t want to lose grip on the bulky material we work with. The OXXA® X-Grip turned out to be the perfect glove for our type of work. The latex coating with wrinkled finish provides excellent grip. And we need that. They also last a long time. A welcome addition! ”

Cut resistance

“Greenhouses and glass are inextricably linked, of course,” says Paul. “And where there is glass, there is a high risk of cuts. In consultation with Majestic, we are looking at a new glove that we can introduce. We could then use it perfectly next to the OXXA® X-Grip glove. We are currently conducting field tests with the OXXA® X-Cut-Flex IP glove. This impact- and cut-resistant glove is intended to give the aspect of working safely within Knijnenburg-Zwirs a new positive boost. Direct contact with an external PPE knowledge party such as Majestic is very pleasant for us. We have a challenge, Majestic provides the right advice. Based on that advice, we proceed to purchase from one of the OXXA® distribution partners.
