PULP&PAPER

We started a journey more than a decade ago. A group of hardworking people with a new technology that no one had ever seen. One that had the potential to change the way people viewed safety gloves. One that could change the lives of workers across the world. We started with one industry and one glove. We changed, altered, tested, and trialed until we began eliminating hand injuries for a few large companies. Eliminated – as in zero – none. That’s when we knew we were changing the landscape of safety forever. We grew and expanded from hand protection to arm, leg, and body protection solving century-old safety problems. We did this by working side-by-side with our customers, creating solutions where others couldn’t. When our customers started asking how we could solve other safety problems, we began to seek an innovative partner who shares our values, leads the market globally, and has changed the safety industry in the same way we changed hand, arm, and body protection. Today we’re proud to say we’ve achieved just that. With the help of an innovative German PPE partner – a global leader with over 90 years’ experience – HexArmor ® is expanding our PPE portfolio to immediately include safety eyewear. This joint venture has allowed us to combine resources and address unsolved issues in safety eyewear through manufacturing, engineering, design, and technical expertise, creating the most advanced line of safety eyewear in the industry. Eyewear is just the beginning of what’s to come in a long line of PPE advancements from HexArmor. ® We look forward to continuing working alongside you, our customers, and bringing you groundbreaking PPE solutions that give workers the protection they deserve.

Because in the end, we aren’t just PPE. We’re the confidence, safety, and livelihood of those we protect.

Wearability: The Key to Compliance ®

HexArmor ® safety eyewear was developed as a natural extension of our core mission: to send every worker home safe, every day. To accomplish this, we knew the safety eyewear we designed and manufactured needed to be a product workers would want to wear – PPE that wouldn’t get in the way – because we all know the safest PPE is the PPE that’s worn. The best way to ensure that eyewear is being worn? Create a product centered on Wearability ® – which is the key to compliance. At HexArmor, ® safety eyewear Wearability ® is comprised of three main factors: Lens Technology The part of eyewear that gets little attention (but can have a significant impact) is the lenses. Proprietary LTX ® Lens Technology by HexArmor ® provides uncompromised optical clarity. This, combined with maximum impact resistance, makes our HexArmor lenses top class. Coatings Technology Not all lens coatings are the same. Typical dip coatings don’t allow the flexibility of anti-fog and scratch resistance to be applied on different sides of the lens. The flow-coating technique used by HexArmor ® allows this flexibility and outlasts all other eyewear on the market. Fit Architecture We take fit very seriously. Properly-fitting eyewear gives wearers confidence. It protects from dust and debris, is free of pressure points, is lightweight, and doesn’t slip. The right eyewear looks and feels good and is easily compatible with other PPE.

Proper protection with no side effects, this is Wearability. ® The result? Compliance.

Hydrophobic vs. Hydrophilic For fundamentally different coatings that outperform anything on the market while maintaining their performance over time, HexArmor’s chemically engineered anti-fog technology absorbs moisture droplets as they hit the lens, eliminating fog. This moisture absorbing process is known as hydrophilic and is found in all HexArmor’s anti-fog coatings. Taking this process one step further, HexArmor ® uses specialized dual- action hydrophilic coatings for extreme applications that cause moisture to spread on the lens and then absorb, eliminating fog permanently. Traditional coatings in the safety eyewear market use hydrophobic technology. This technology causes moisture to spread as it hits the lens, eliminating fog. Although effective for a short period, hydrophobic anti-fog coatings are detergent based and wash off over time. This type of short- term fog protection leads to compliance issues and eyewear being treated as disposable. Cleanability: HexArmor ® vs. Competitors HexArmor’s permanent anti-fog coatings outperform even the highest- performing competitors and ensure that the anti-fog properties of the lenses stay true to their nature, surpassing the ANSI anti-fog standard for the lifetime of the eyewear. Coatings

Hydrophilic vs. Hydrophobic

With hydrophilic coatings, moisture is absorbed into the coating, eliminating fog.

With hydrophobic coatings, moisture spreads across the lens, eliminating fog.

Flow-Coating Flow-coating is profoundly different than traditional dip-coating methods used by other safety eyewear brands. Dip-coating applies an identical coating to both sides of the lens and can sacrifice the quality of one protective property over the other. Traditional dip coatings can either be scratch-resistant or anti-fog. The combination of the two compromises the performance of each. Flow-coating technology has allowed HexArmor ® to pioneer four completely new coating combinations in the Americas that include permanent anti-fog on the interior of the lens and either a scratch-resistant hard coat or permanent anti-fog on the exterior of the lens. This specialized dual-coating process is exclusive to HexArmor ® and is a first for the PPE eyewear industry in the Americas. In the Pulp and Paper industry, issues around safety eyewear fogging up becomes more frequent. Machine areas are high in heat and humidity, causing safety glasses to fog up in a matter of seconds. This results in workers having to take their glasses off to see, subjecting them to potential hazards and compliance issues. Having safety eyewear with high-performing anti-fog coatings isn’t just a luxury, it’s a must. While TruShield ® coating will work in most area, HexArmor’s TruShield ® 2F and TruShield ® 2SF are ideal for extreme temperature and humidity changes. These permanent anti-fog coatings on the inside and outside of the lenses offer greater fog protection in more severe conditions. Multipurpose TruShield ™

Quality Protection

Pulp, paper, and corrugated container producers have their own set of hazards to avoid. Handling sharp knives, slitter blades, or die cutters are daily applications in the pulp & paper industry. HexArmor ® designs PPE with the highest levels of cut protection to defend against a variety of cut hazards.

16 | HexArmor ® Pulp & Paper

The High Cost of Low Quality PPE Beyond the physical and emotional pain caused by injuries, safety managers must calculate the total cost of a workplace injury. There are numerous indirect costs of injuries that can have ten times the economic impact of the direct costs. Time-Related Costs • Overtime costs necessitated by the injury • Additional administrative time for supervisors, safety personnel, and clerical workers • Time spent investigating and reporting the accident • Time spent addressing production problems and training replacement workers Productivity Costs • Production output lost by the worker, those assisting and onlookers • Reduced productivity from the injured worker upon return • Reduced productivity by the replacement for the injured worker • Rental equipment costs, if damaged equipment needs repairs • Material or product damage leads to lost potential sales Morale/Reputation • Intangible, unquantifiable costs that must be taken into account • Poor worker morale leads to decreased production and increased turnover rates • Damage to your reputation can lead to business losses • Loss of public goodwill from bad publicity Doesn’t Grow on Trees Material/Equipment Damages • The cost of replacing damaged equipment

Protection Comes In Many Forms HexArmor ® has worked with some of the largest wood products manufacturers in the world to custom engineer safety solutions that address their various hazards. Our hand, and arm and body products provide industry-leading protection against punctures, cuts, and abrasions while maintaining the essential grip and dexterity required to work safely and efficiently. SuperFabric ® Is a Cut Above

Standard Seamless Coated Gloves Cut/Puncture Hazard

HexArmor ® is an exclusive licensee of SuperFabric ® brand material. SuperFabric ® technology is designed to prevent lacerations and slashes from reaching the skin. SuperFabric ® provides Industry-leading cut protection from jagged product edges and the sharpest saw blades. The addition of SuperFabric ® in our glove designs offers the lumber industry more options for high-performance hand and arm/body protection than everyone else in the industry combined. When you want superior cut protection, you need HexArmor ® gloves with SuperFabric. ® The Puncture Stops Here Punctures from saw blade teeth or wooden splinters vary greatly in size and shape often entering the hand and arm at angles that make it difficult to prevent injury. Common glove materials such as Dyneema ® or Kevlar ® can be easily pierced because of the knit properties of the material. HexArmor ® relies on advanced fabric technology to stop puncture hazards and prevent injuries.

Rough Around the Edges (Abrasion) The edges of raw materials or sheets of plywood and OSB can wear through the palm material on an inferior glove very quickly, especially when edges are rough after being cut. HexArmor ® builds superior abrasion resistance into our heaviest duty gloves for enhanced durability. Leather has been a proven performer when it comes to abrasions, and we rely on the highest quality leather to provide durability in many of our gloves lines. Also, adding patches of SuperFabric ® to other materials, like the SteelLeather 5033, can increase the abrasion resistance significantly and extend the life of the glove. Get a Grip Having a solid grip on tools and equipment results in safer, more efficient work. Changing wet or oily saw blades without a confident grip can result in slippage that causes punctures and lacerations. In addition, working with machines requires a nimble feel and excellent finger dexterity. HexArmor ® has a variety of grip styles designed for the tasks that wood products manufacturers tackle every day.

Case Study

Change-overs are a very common part of maintaining production lines at paper mills. Slitter blades must be adjusted or replaced daily in order to meet customer specifications for finished goods. The Right Solution for Maintenance Mechanics HexArmor ® had been working with a large international provider of packaging and paper products to find a solution for lacerations that their mechanics were experiencing during routine maintenance on production lines. The company had been using a Spectra blended cut-resistant glove for years, yet hand

injuries were still present, and the mechanics did not like how the gloves bulky fit got in the way of handling smaller parts.

HexArmor’s team of safety advisors recommended Chrome Series ® gloves

with SuperFabric ® for mechanics changing slitter blades because it offers 360-degree cut protection. After about a month of use, a mechanic came in contact with one of the slitter blades while performing a change-over. The blade cut through the synthetic material on the back of the Chrome Series ® glove. While the glove itself was damaged, the worker was not injured due to the high level of protection provided by the SuperFabric ® material underneath the surface of the glove. Had the worker been wearing a competitive product, he would have been injured, and the company would have incurred thousands of dollars in costs associated with the injury.

The paper mill immediately mandated Chrome Series ® gloves for its mechanics and saw a reduction in hand injuries.

The Technology Behind Staying Cool We’re bringing cool to a whole new level. With this cooling technology, high-performance fabric is moisture activated so that as water evaporates, fast drying microfibers and natural minerals accelerate the cooling process. When the sun’s rays reflect off the minerals, thermal energy is thrown away from the body. Workers are cooler faster – and for longer. Odor and fiber deterioration won’t be an issue with Bact-Out ® , a proprietary antimicrobial technology that provides resistance and control against 99.9% of bacteria – even after 50 washes! ColdRush products also offer 30+ UPF UV protection to help workers stay safe in the sun. Heat Statistics/Importance of PPE We surveyed 100 workers and found that 93 percent regularly experience heat stress while on the job. According to the CDC, extreme heat causes an average of 658 work and non work-related deaths a year in the United States. If you’re working out in the heat, or managing employees in high-heat environments, be sure to take proper precautions, including checking the heat index, setting up effective water and rest breaks, and using high-quality cooling personal protective equipment (PPE).

How ColdRush ® Works:

Apply water to high- performance material

Material absorbs and retains moisture

Fast-drying microfiber filaments and natural minerals accelerate the cooling process while deflecting harmful sun rays

ColdRush ® with eVapora ™ Technology HexArmor ® eVapora™ fabric technology quickly absorbs moisture up to six times its weight, retains it, and allows it to slowly and naturally evaporate, which produces a cooling effect on the skin for hours. Once in contact with the skin, ColdRush ® continually wicks perspiration away and stores it in microcavity moisture reservoirs, which provide up to four hours of active cooling. When the fabric dries out, simply wetten to reactivate the cooling effect. At the end of the day, throw ColdRush ® in the washer and reuse.

The Importance of a Glove Trial

Getting it Right Whether you’re experiencing hand injuries, trying to cut down on skus, or looking to start a new hand protection program, HexArmor ® can help. Choosing hand protection isn’t easy. From complicated safety standards to the multitudes of glove manufacturers, gloves are a complex purchase that can benefit from consulting a hand safety professional. HexArmor ® created the HexAudit as a standard procedure when working with customers to evaluate their hand safety needs. The HexAudit is a complimentary service that can be completed onsite by an OSHA 30 and QSSP Certified HexArmor ® Regional Manager by walking the facility and evaluating applications, hazards, and any hand protection currently in use. A HexAudit document is then created which outlines the information gathered and hand protection recommendations. HexAudits can be performed on small and large size companies and can be as formal or informal as the client prefers.

How to Run a Glove Trial A glove trial is the process of field-testing different models of safety gloves, either from a single source or several manufacturers, in order to identify the best glove for a particular job. When done correctly, the benefits of a glove trial include: • Improved hand safety program and equipment and reduced rate of hand injuries • Increased awareness of hand safety issues among workers • Higher rates of compliance with hand safety PPE requirements • Reduction in costs related to hand protection, through increased efficiency and durability of work gloves, or reduced insurance rates, medical costs, and workers’ comp claims Work conditions vary from one job to another. There is no way to tell how effective a particular safety glove will be without testing it in the field to see how it holds up and protects against the actual hazards encountered in the workplace. Although a glove may have tested well in laboratory settings and been granted a high cut rating, it may lack abrasion resistance and break down quickly in the field. If a glove doesn’t offer the same level of protection at the end of the work day as it does at the beginning, then you need to consider another option. To ensure you avoid wasting time and energy on a poorly-run glove trial, we have outlined a set of proven steps you can take in the glove trial process. These tips and recommendations come from over a decade of experience working with large industrial companies.

How to Properly Care for Your Gloves

Cleaning + Care Most gloves and arm and body PPE are machine washable. Please see hexarmor.com for product specific washing instructions. Increase Your Glove Lifespan by Up To 300% Laundering removes harmful chemicals, perspiration, and everyday grit and grime that can weaken protective fibers and seams. Our team of HexArmor ® solutions specialists are here to help you with this process, and they are more than happy to provide you with all the information you need.

Improper glove care can shorten the life of your PPE. It can also lead to dermatitis, decreased dexterity, loss of protective abilities, and odor. Glove care refers not only to laundering but also proper storage, routine glove checks, and knowledge of materials and their particular strengths and weaknesses. Because there are so many different work gloves on the market, experienced safety managers should be aware of what workers’ gloves are made of and how they will stand up to the applications they’re being used for. Common glove materials include nylon, spandex, leather, cotton, SuperFabric ® *, Kevlar ® , and knit fibers. Each of these materials has a certain way it needs to be cared for. Often there is a blending of the materials, making proper care even more crucial. Proper Storage Gloves should be stored in clean, dry conditions, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Routine Glove Checks Glove life varies depending on the application, environment, and amount of use. It is vital that you perform routine glove checks before beginning work every day. Take note of areas that have begun to wear down, such as loose Velcro ® or a worn-down name tag. If you see holes in the synthetic leather or TP-X ® material on the palm of your glove, this is an indication that its protective qualities may be compromised, putting you at risk of injury. Lingering moisture or a strong odor are also signs that your gloves may need to be replaced. Keeping an eye out for these issues (and others) takes you one step further from a worksite hand injury, which is the ultimate goal of hand protection.
