of hospital consumables has had so much bad publicity recently. However, we believe with the right amount of support the healthcare industry as a whole, both public and private, will be able to better understand the benefits of hand protection, reduce the risk to wearers whilst reducing the cost of hand protection generally. We also offer a combined consultancy


and advice package, working with stakeholders to conduct feasibility and usage assessments and make recommendations based on the organisation’s needs. Our rationale for HAIKA’s consultancy-driven approach is that a better understanding of hand protection needs and effective implementation will drive cost savings, rather than simply rationalisation or switching to cheaper, and possibly inferior, products.

T


he Union Jack has become a significant asset on the global stage with the red, white and


blue synonymous with quality and professionalism. At Globus, an example of British success, we have been flying the flag for Britain for over two decades and, during that time, have become a significant force in the hand protection industry. We have delivered numerous innovations and introduced new levels of ‘wearability’ that have had a positive impact on safety and productivity across a number of industries. Now a multi-million pound international business consistently achieving double digit turnover growth, we have spent considerable time developing a product focused on the healthcare market. The result is the launch of the HAIKA™


brand that encompasses a range of high performance sterile surgical and non- sterile examination gloves. A lot of research and development


has preceded the launch and we are confident that we have come to market with a truly differentiated offering and one that can make a positive difference to healthcare organisations at many different levels. At Globus we take great pride in the


positive impact our hand protection solutions have on the lives of many people every day. Globus’ products are used every day by industry professionals across the world, enabling them to create amazing achievements and protect themselves from life-changing injuries. Even Britain’s Olympic athletes have achieved greatness and set world records with the help of a Globus solution. Some people might think we are mad launching into a market and selling a product when the purchase

often uncovers opportunities for cost saving and can highlight ways in which staff can be better protected. Hand protection policies can often be somewhat ambiguous leaving the individual unsure as to what they are meant to do, or wear. We have applied our expertise and


this approach across a spectrum of industries, meeting and exceeding a diverse range of hand protection requirements, from the rigours of heavy construction to the complexities of clean room and aerospace manufacturing. Regardless of the industry one thing is clear: Globus sells hand protection, not just gloves. We are passionate about hand


protection. From experience we know that the proper use of the right glove can make a dramatic difference both personally and business wide. There are so many stakeholders involved with hand protection and, as such, many benefits to be found and challenges to be overcome. Better patient protection, better staff protection and enhanced wearer performance resulting in cost savings: a win-win situation if managed properly. Hands do the most incredible things


every day and we help protect those hands. Over the past twenty years our gloves have witnessed some pretty incredible things, and we are very proud of that.
