Safety Works Inc. announced that it acquired three consumer-focused glove brands from Protective Industrial Products Inc. (PIP). The acquisition includes lawn and garden glove brands—Mud® and West County Gardner®, as well as Brahma® work gloves.
Mud® Glove set a new standard in lawn and garden glove technology, focusing on comfort and dependability. By way of innovative materials and athletic-inspired design, West County Gardner offers premium performance in gardening gloves. And for more than 50 years, Brahma has been a symbol of durability and value in safety work gloves for tradespeople, craftspeople and consumers.
“Acquiring these three key glove lines will put Safety Works in a leadership position for the retail market,” explained Kyle Ramos, Safety Works’ director of marketing. “This move is designed to improve our offering and merchandising opportunities for our retail customers, and provide them with a one-stop solution for all their safety needs,” Ramos explained.
“Safety Works has always had a strong safety products offering, but with the addition of these new brands, we are now positioned to offer the retailers a diverse offering of products,” said Bill Verzole, sales manager for Safety Works.
The addition of these three glove lines affirms Safety Works’ commitment to growing into a full-line retail supplier of safety, as well as hand protection products in North America and beyond.
