Kashi Hi-Vis Glove Range Improving Hand Placement and Awareness

Written by PROSAFE | Oct 13, '22

 

It’s time to put your hands up and say: ‘I want to be seen by others, and I also want to see myself.’ If that applies to you in the workplace, the PROSAFE Kashi range of gloves can help. 

The need for workers to be visible in hazardous workplaces is fundamental to worker safety. That is why we see more and more workers wearing Hi-Vis clothing, in all sorts of situations. Wearing suitable gloves is part of the safety solution, whether it be in mining, construction, firefighting, emergency rescue, traffic direction, dirty or low light environments, or many types of work in general. 

One of the biggest benefits of Hi-Vis gloves is ‘hand placement.’ The glove wearers know exactly where their hands are, as do their colleagues who are working with them. To be seen, is to be safe. This is relevant in many workplace situations, including when using machinery or high-impact tools such as hammers. It’s the very reasons why we’ve developed the Kashi Hi-Visibility range. It’s critical in the prevention of accidents and injuries in the workplace. They also allow HSE (Health, Safety & Environment) team members to easily see that workers are wearing hand protection.  

The PROSAFE Kashi Glove range include: 

  • 15 gauge seamless Hi-Vis yellow Cut A knit liner 
  • 18 gauge seamless Hi-Vis yellow Cut D knit liner 
  • Hi-Vis yellow foam nitrile pam coating that enables grip durability and abrasion resistance while also allowing touchscreen compatibility, reducing the need to take gloves off to use devices. 

Whatever colour they are, all work gloves should be fit-for-purpose, providing the user with the right balance of protection and dexterity to properly complete the task or application without needing them to be removed. 

The PROSAFE Kashi glove range has been expanded to include a level D cut resistant option. Both the General purpose and Cut D gloves provide high visibility hand protection covering numerous applications ranging from light-duty material handling, assembly, metal fabrication, or any tasks requiring extra grip and agility whilst helping keep your hands clean and visible.
