Transportation & Warehousing

Showa is focusing on how easy to handle objects.
We offer various hand protections which are designed excellent workability for any situation.

01

Picking

Picking task is to take out goods from storage shelves.
Generally goods that are not too big or too heavy are handled by the hand.
It is said that picking up many cardboard boxes may cause hand dry.
Several reasons are reported but to repeat touching cardboard boxes directly may remove moisture from hands.

Picking

You may not be correct if you think wearing gloves would prevent workers’ productivity because some gloves are well researched and designed to fit comfortably and to provide tactility.
SHOWA is one of the trusted manufactures that offer such a glove.
SHOWA is advocating two benefits of wearing gloves, one is to protect workers’ hands from dry skin and another is to support productivity improvement.

02

Inspection

For instance in inspecting cosmetics, exterior condition of products needs to be kept clean and looks beautiful because appearance of cosmetics is important.
During this work it is necessary to prevent fingerprints and sweat from sticking to the product surface.

Inspection

Thick type of knitting gloves is not a good choice because such gloves may not designed for good fitting and tactility.
In addition, such gloves themselves may create lint and there is concern contamination of lint into products.
SHOWA recommends suitable hand protections for inspection of delicate products that have excellent fitting and tactility feature with low lint

03

Machine operation & Transportation

Handling large size of goods and heavy goods.
Workers withdraw them from storage shelves by hands and carry them by machines.

Machine operation & Transportation

Through this task the good hand protections cover two requirements with one type of gloves.
The first requirement is to support to pull out goods from storage shelves without dropping, the second one is to operate transportation machines smoothly. If the one type of gloves cannot meet these requirements, workers need to change the different type of gloves each process. This means not only workers get stress but also costly.
SHOWA has over 20 years experiences to offer suitable hand protections in this field.
The surface of our gloves on palm can stick and hold the surface of cardboard boxes.
Our gloves naturally fit human hands and flexible feature to support machine operation.

04

Cold storage work

Frozen food and ice cream etc are needed to be kept in cold storage.
It is generally said that raw tuna must be kept at zero degrees and frozen tuna must be kept at -50 to -60 degrees to maintain quality.

Cold storage work

If workers do not use adequate hand protections, not only they suffer coldness but also their work efficiency is incredibly slow down.
It is reported that some workers complained they had finger numb and pain due to cold and they could work for only few minutes.
SHOWA offers hand protections with excellent heat insulation in inner.
If preventing only fingers from coldness is needed, palm coating type is a good choice.
If protecting hands against coldness from all directions is required, all coated type is strongly recommended.
