Everybody expects disposable gloves to be of top quality. It’s considered the baseline (even if not every vendor lives up to it).
Very few vendors that sell gloves, however, go a step further and insert an extra layer of quality control that involves 100% inspections.
Who does? AIC Our No. 1 goal is helping customers find the right glove for the job, and that starts with reducing risk for customers by ensuring products meet high standards.
Our teams achieve that through dedication to efficient and ethical sourcing, outstanding logistics and operations, and commitment to compliance.
Intel gained at the ground level
Boots-on-the-ground teams located onsite in Southeast Asia provide 100% quality-assurance inspections to ensure product consistency and operational process visibility. They thoroughly check out every order and shipment at the factory level.
Most glove vendors do not have the personnel to perform thorough inspections. We have invested in dedicated teams that do not settle for less than 100% quality. AIC’s teams visit every factory and leave no glove unturned.
Do all the gloves you receive from your vendors consistently meet exact specifications? Our on-location experts ensure that all our products do.
Does your vendor keep records of personal inspections for every glove shipment? AIC has detailed records on all inspections.
A commitment that doesn’t waver
Beyond inspecting every shipment, we also invest in working with our suppliers to ethically source and produce product:
- Our partners sign our Ethical Sourcing Policy. It states that products, raw materials, and services are being sourced from businesses that comply with ethical standards and legal requirements. This tells you that our gloves are above-board and manufactured without exploitation.
- Business practices are validated through membership in Sedex—an organization that partners with more than 74,000 global companies to create socially and environmentally sustainable businesses and supply chains. Central to this partnership is SMETA, the world’s most widely used social audit, which enables businesses to assess their sites and suppliers to understand working conditions in their supply chain.
- We take appropriate actions for improvement in our supply chain, working only with suppliers who follow our strict regulations to the letter.
No other independent glove vendor has the commitment to quality though 100% in-person inspections of every shipment, sourcing policies, and audits. This manifests in putting the best products on the market to deliver excellent margins for our distributors and the best hand protection for their customers.
