Protective Gloves For Mining And Quarrying

SHOWA mining gloves have been tested and proven to offer extreme protection for critical hand impact points without hindering productivity.

Why Quality Mining Gloves are Critical for Your Team

Although mining gloves provide protection from hand injuries they’re exposed to, mineworkers skip wearing them because they impede their efficacy. Some of the risks they expose their hands to include:

  • Abrasions, cuts, and lacerations: Moving parts of mining machines can result in amputated fingers, hands, and arms.
  • UV Radiation: Prolonged exposure to UV radiation in open-pit mines results in conditions like melanoma which has been proven to cause skin cancer.
  • Chemical hazards: Cleaning and organic solvents and metalworking chemicals are a few examples of the chemical hazards mine workers are exposed to without quality gloves.
  • Harmful dust: Without mining gloves, fine particles from coal and other materials in mine deposits can penetrate the skin and enter the blood, causing allergic reactions, infections, and systemic toxicity.
  • Thermal stress: It can get extremely hot in mines. The heat is dangerous for naked hands, while the cold can cause one to go numb, affecting productivity.

 

Unfortunately, when a hand injury occurs, your company will bear the related financial burden as well as lawsuits should the injured worker decide to pursue legal action.
