I’m delighted to become part of the Unigloves team and be back in a dedicated hand protection environment which I love. Having worked in the PPE sector for many years, gloves are definitely my “thing” which is why I am excited to be joining Unigloves and really looking forward to working with customers to help them with their hand protection and wider PPE challenges,” said Karen.
