Ansell and Deb partner to launch under glove skincare product
Ansell provides protection solutions and Deb occupational skincare products, entered a partnership back in May this year, to market a new under glove skincare product to the industrial market, which they are launching this month.
Approximately half of workers in industry wear gloves on a regular basis and face ongoing challenges related to health and comfort, which can affect overall productivity and efficiency. To address these challenges, Ansell and Deb will combine their efforts, leveraging joint expertise in the hand protection and hand skin care categories, to develop and market an innovative solution.
“Both Ansell and Deb have great reputations in delivering innovative products solutions to our customers” says Scott Corriveau, President and GM, Industrial Global Business Unit at Ansell. “We both have the same ethos and passion to be the best in our categories and, through a combined effort, will be able to leverage our knowledge and expertise via this unique partnership.”
“At Deb we have always believed that skincare products and gloves have a clear complementary relationship in delivering the most effective hand protection,” said Bryan Anderson, Deb Group CEO. “The partnership between our two companies demonstrates the importance of taking a holistic approach to improve worker health and efficiency.”
“The European market is most advanced in skincare solutions, therefore it is an obvious choice to pioneer our joint market approach here in Europe,” says Peter Dobbelsteijn, Chief Commercial Officer EMEA & APAC Region & Ansell Guardian. “We are excited about this collaboration which will bring our customers and end users considerable added value.”
Ansell and Deb are jointly launching their concept in the largest industrial markets in Europe, specifically in Germany, the United Kingdom and France.
Developed specifically for use under gloves, this unique skincare product will address significant unmet user needs of industrial workers related to effective sweat management and prevention of skin disease.
