Effective glove drying with ozone cleaning

Improved hygiene and less smell from work clothes in salmon farming

Salmar Farming AS operates in aquaculture, where hygiene, efficiency, and continuous operation are crucial for a safe and stable workflow. In wet working environments with seawater and a high level of activity, long fishing gloves are used for a large part of the day and must be dried quickly and hygienically to ensure comfort and health and safety.

The challenge

The work gloves did not dry sufficiently with existing solutions, leading to moisture, odour, and reduced comfort. Additionally, the gloves needed to be ready for use multiple times during the workday, which required a more efficient and reliable drying method.

  • Moisture and smell built up in the gloves
  • Long drying time with existing equipment
  • The gloves had to be ready for use quickly between work sessions.
  • Need for a more hygienic solution with low odour and high operational reliability

The solution

We delivered Glove 10 glove dryers, developed to handle wet working environments in the aquaculture industry. The dryers ensure fast and efficient drying of long fishing gloves, while ozone cleaning removes unwanted odours and bacteria from the inside.
  • Fast and efficient drying of long fishing gloves
  • Ozone cleaner that removes bad smells and bacteria from the interior
  • Consistent and stable air supply leads to shorter drying times.
  • Improved hygiene and comfort for employees
