In 2022, workplace hygiene has never been so topical. Health and safety products supply is done much more frequently. It is therefore important to choose the right products and especially the right supplier. Buying in bulk will save you money.

 

Masks and respirators should be used with other forms of personal protective equipment. These include appropriate eye protection such as a face shield or goggles. You will find more information about medical masks and respirators on this government page.

 

To help you select your health and safety products, we have gathered the essentials for you.

 

Protection essentials

• Hands protection

 

Many industries require workers to wear protective gloves. The type of gloves varies according to the type of risks to which they are exposed. We are talking about the risk of injury or contamination, but also to have a better grip on objects.

 

The CNESST categorizes the types of risk as follows:

 

• Risk of hand injury : cut, puncture, scratch.

 

Knitted gloves offer very good protection against slicing cuts.

 

Knitted gloves can also be coated. These provide additional protection against chemical and biological aggressors.

 

When placing your order, be sure to choose a good size variety.

 

• Chemical risk : chemicals in liquid, gaseous or solid particle form.

 

For effective protection against this type of risk, it is strongly recommended to use latex gloves (rubber, polymer, etc.). When placing your order, be sure to choose a good size variety.

• Physical risk : heat, cold, flames, sparks.

 

For good protection against physical risks, we recommend neoprene gloves.

 

• Biological risk : human and animal fluids, garbage, unsanitary environments, mold

 

For biological risks, latex gloves or nitrile gloves are also recommended. When placing your order, be sure to choose a good size variety.

 

• Electrical and electrostatic risks : electrical circuits and devices under voltage, accumulation of electrostatic charges

 

For protection against electrical charges, coated knit gloves are a good option.

• Respiratory protection (masks)

Protective masks are no mystery to anyone. Obviously, the level 2 medical mask is a must. On the other hand, there are other types of masks that protect differently.

 

For example, the N95 respirator filters the air, filtering out at least 95% of particles. The “N” in the name means they are not oil resistant.

• Eye protection

For eye protection, the most common solution is to opt for safety glasses.

 

Several models are available varying according to the comfort, the look and the protective surface.

• Hand sanitizers and dispensers

Obviously, you need a wholesale supplier for your hand sanitizer supply. For better service, the disinfectant dispenser is an option adopted by several companies.

 

Finally, buy your antiseptic foam wholesale too. You’ll save money and trips to the retailer.
