Fortress launches latest PPE to UK

 

A new heavy duty impact glove has been described as the ‘ultimate protection’ by PPE distributer Fortress Distribution.

The Black Mamba provides full back of hand protection against abrasion, impact and hand fatigue and is made from a polyester liner with thermal protective rubber padding on the fingers and back of hand, says Fortress. The firm adds that the gloves are ideal for the oil and gas drilling, construction, mechanics, HVAC and automotive sectors.

According to Fortress, the Black Mamba impact glove features:

  • a synthetic leather palm with an elastic fit Velcro band allows for a tailored fit
  • palm and fingertip patches for extended wear
  • 3D curved fingers
  • 4-way stretch fabric
  • TPR knuckle and back of hand protection
  • hi visibility colour.

Alan Matthews, Director at Fortress Distribution, comments: “We are really excited to be partnering with Black Mamba Gloves and bring these unique products to the UK and Ireland. There has been huge interest and demand for the Black Mamba Nitrile gloves with customers and users benefitting from a premium quality product. We have seen a significant growth in the Black Mamba Glove brand across a number of industries and we expect demand for the new impact glove to be high.
