Time is one of the most valuable resources. At facilities without vending machines, replacing disposable personal protective equipment can take a lot of time. If a worker needs to change gloves during a shift, they have to go to the warehouse, complete paperwork, receive new gloves and return — this can take up to 40 minutes, which the employer pays for. If vending machines are installed in the workshop, the process of obtaining PPE takes no more than 5 minutes: the worker approaches the machine, presents a card/pass and receives the required PPE.

How does vending help?

Dispenses short‑life PPE:

Respirators, gloves, earplugs and other non‑bulky items are now obtained next to the workplace.

Collects PPE for disposal:

Occurs without involvement of the warehouse attendant: the worker scans workwear or safety footwear by barcode or selects the item on the touchscreen and places the PPE to be disposed into the opened cell.

Accepts workwear for laundering:

This also happens without involvement of the warehouse attendant: the worker scans the workwear by barcode or selects the item on the touchscreen and places the soiled suit into the machine.

Tracks issuance:

The machine's software can be integrated into your company's systems (1C, SAP or others) or use cloud software. This enables online tracking of every issued PPE.

Each vending machine includes:

  • A touchscreen for user interaction.
  • Connection to the company's information system via the internet using Wi‑Fi, a GSM modem or the local network. The received data is quickly synchronized and updated.
  • An RFID card reader used for user identification and configured for the type of cards used at the company. Employee identification by fingerprint or Face ID can also be added.
