In high-risk industries like industrial manufacturing, oil & gas, construction, utilities, and mining, proper hand protection is critical—not just for safety but also for productivity. One often-overlooked factor? Grip.
Selecting the right glove goes beyond cut resistance and durability; the coating plays a major role in how well workers can hold onto tools, materials, and equipment—especially in wet, oily, or dry conditions. Join industry experts from Radians as they break down the science behind glove coatings, live demonstrations of grip performance, and a practical approach to choosing the right hand protection for the job.
This webinar covers:
✔️ OSHA Requirements & Workplace Assessments – Understanding compliance and hazard evaluations for hand protection.
✔️ Glove Attributes That Matter Most – How fit, dexterity, durability, and grip affect performance.
✔️ Coating Comparisons – A breakdown of different coatings (nitrile, latex, polyurethane) and how they perform in different environments.
✔️ Live Grip Demonstrations – See firsthand how gloves react in dry, wet, and oily conditions.
✔️ Finding the Right Solution – Using a structured assessment process to eliminate guesswork and improve safety.
