Building lines that meet fair trade and ethical labour standards
Buyers increasingly audit how gloves are made, not just the gloves themselves. Automation and traceable process control give our customers the evidence those audits ask for — specified from the first drawing rather than retrofitted later.
What that looks like on the line
Chemical handlingCompounding and dosing systems meter line chemicals automatically, under PLC control.
Process recordsPLC and SCADA controls log the parameters behind every batch and shift.
Material handlingConveyor systems carry product through the line with fewer manual touchpoints.
