PROTECTING VITAL INDUSTRIES
Protecting Hands And Fingers In Vital Industries Like Oil & Gas, Construction And Mining.
According to the United States National Safety Council, just over 1 in 5 (22.2%) of all workplace injuries leading to days off work, job transfers, or restrictions were hand and finger injuries.
And that’s why we developed Collide-x3 with feedback from real end users – the men and women who do the high-impact, high-risk jobs the world needs to keep running.
“Much better than current impact gloves on every level… no need to remove impact gloves for completing all job tasks, where current gloves make it very hard to use split pins and slotted nuts.” – Feedback from end user who rated Collide-x Excellent for In-use Dexterity, Feeling, and Fit.
“These gloves are less restrictive when working on tricky tasks [compared to using TPR impact gloves].” – Feedback from end user who rated Collide-x Excellent for In-use Comfort and In-use Dexterity.
“A vast improvement on the gloves we currently use. Dexterity and fit are important improvements and mean that many more tasks are achievable without having to remove gloves from hand.” – Feedback from end user who rated Collide-x Very Good for Comfort, Dexterity, Feeling, Fit, Wear, and Durability.
41.8% of all recordable incidents on oil drilling rigs in 2023 were hand and finger injuries.
Regardless of their role, your Roustabouts, Derrickmen, or Floorhands need good grip and dexterity all shift long when hammering and jacking, buffing and needle gunning, installing loading station hoses, or lifting heavy equipment on deck.
Imagine an impact glove that offers ANSI level 3 protection as well as great comfort and dexterity for even the trickiest tasks, helping your drill hands stay protected and productive.
Construction had the 2nd highest number of self-reported non-fatal workplace injuries of any industry between 2020-2021 and 2022-2023.
Whether working with concrete, rebar, or masonry, your onsite employees are at high risk of trapped or pinched fingers, abrasions and bruises. Imagine a glove that protects their hands and fingers while also offering the dexterity and grip they need to keep working effectively all day long.
From operating heavy machinery to dealing with dust and high temperatures, mining employees are at high risk of crushed or trapped fingers, abrasions, lacerations, or even worse. Skimping on high-impact hand protection isn’t an option. But you also need a glove that allows for undiminished dexterity and grip throughout the longest, toughest shifts.
A worker is injured on average every seven seconds in the Unites States. With so many mechanical processes and the need to handle and move heavy machinery, manufacturing is another industry where employees risk serious injury to hands and fingers. This is where Collide-x3’s unique two-step impact reduction technology can help, reducing the seriousness of injuries and keeping hands protected – without comprising on dexterity or comfort.
With so much cutting, bending, and assembling involved in metal fabrication, the risk of hand injury here is high. Your employees’ hands are exposed to several hazards that require protection from cut and puncture resistance as well as impact from working with heavy machinery. This is where our 2-step impact reduction technology combines with Tilsatec’s high-performance RhinoYarn proprietary cut-resistant yarn technology to offer great all-round protection with unbelievable dexterity and comfort.
Many aerospace employees handle machining processes like loading parts into CNC machines or assembling, mounting, screwing or unscrewing multiple components. This subjects their hand to multiple cut, abrasion, and impact risks. Imagine offering the dexterity and comfort of a TPR level 2 glove with the superior protection of ANSI level 3 protection – an improvement of up to 38% in impact resistance.
