Strategy
The instructions and information provided by the manufacturer of
the personal protective equipment on use, storage, maintenance and
replacement must always be followed.
Keep away from foodstuffs, beverages and feed. Immediately remove
all soiled and contaminated clothing
Wash hands before breaks and at the end of work.
Avoid contact with the eyes and skin.
Store protective clothing separately.
Not necessary if room is well-ventilated.
There is no one glove material or combination of materials that will
give unlimited resistance to any individual or combination of chemicals.
The selection of single or multi-use gloves is dependent upon the level
of exposure (nitrile/neoprene gloves will last longer than latex/rubber).
The performance or effectiveness of the glove may be reduced by
physical/ chemical damage and poor maintenance. Always ensure that
gloves are free from defects and that they are stored and used correctly.
Gloves should be replaced regularly and if there is any sign of damage
to the glove material. Hands should be inspected on a regular basis for
any signs of skin damage or inflammation.
Penetration time of glove material: The exact break through time has
to be found out by the manufacturer of the protective gloves and has
to be observed.
In general, with the recommended nitrile gloves, replace the glove
within a few minutes if it is contaminated with ink.
Do not reuse single-use gloves
Do not handle prints without gloves if ink is not properly cured.
