Cut Resistant PPE & Safety Wear

Safety is crucial when working with glass.
Here are some key pieces of safety wear and practices to consider:

1. Safety Glasses or Goggles: Protect your eyes from glass shards, dust, or accidental breakage.

2. Cut-Resistant Gloves: Use gloves made from materials like Kevlar to protect your hands from sharp edges and potential cuts.

3. Heavy-Duty Apron or Sleeves: Wear a durable apron or sleeves to protect your arms and body from sharp glass pieces and debris.

4. Steel-Toe Boots: If working with heavy glass, steel-toe boots will protect your feet from accidental drops.

5. Dust Mask: When cutting or grinding glass, wear a dust mask to avoid inhaling fine glass particles.

6. Hearing Protection: If using power tools, earplugs or earmuffs can protect your hearing from loud noises.

7. First Aid Kit: Always have a well-stocked first aid kit nearby in case of accidents.

Additionally, ensure your work area is well-organized, use appropriate tools for the task, and follow proper procedures for handling and disposing of glass.
