AND RESTORE Deb Group has recently launched its new Deb Stoko® range, designed specifically for occupational skin care across a variety of industries.
The portfolio of Deb Stoko® pre- work creams, hand cleansers and after-work restore creams have been formulated to minimise the risks of skin disease and stress that are common in the workplace.
Exposure to common workplace materials such as grease, oil, solvents, detergents, soapy water, dust, paper and cardboard can be damaging to employees’ skin if the issue of occupational skin care is disregarded.

In addition to the expansive range of occupational skin care products, Deb provides employers and employees with training and educational materials in a bid to encourage stakeholder buy-in on an issue that is largely overlooked amongst staff and their employers.
Paul Jakeway, Marketing Director at Deb UK, commented: “Occupational skin disease is a serious health issue that goes largely unreported in the workplace. It is an invisible threat that affects both an organisation’s efficiency and the health and well- being of its employees.
“This is where the new Deb Stoko® range comes in. The products and usage programme address the skin care requirements of all end users. They are essential for effective skin health and in reducing the risk of occupational skin disease.”
