This is a new one. We often talk about ANSI standards and OSHA regulations that have been around for decades. We cover the new updates that come up every 5 – 10 years. Here, we are talking about ANSI/ISEA 138. That sentence wouldn’t make sense a few years ago because before 2019, there was no such thing as ANSI/ISEA 138.

Many workers and companies view impact-resistant gloves ..read more
