With an investment of R$ 2 million, the company is entering the technology consolidation phase, which is expected to double production capacity and raise efficiency and quality standards.

Prots, a national leader in the manufacture of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), is moving forward with the consolidation of one of the most strategic projects in its industrial history. The company, which took the lead by investing in factory automation at its facility in Araquari, Santa Catarina, is now entering a new phase of implementing the technology, which was developed specifically to meet the unique requirements of manufacturing rubber insulating gloves.

Company specializing in protective gloves grows with a focus on technology, quality, and expertise and is already taking its first steps into the North American market

Prots was founded from an understanding of the Brazilian personal protective equipment market: there was room for a specialized company with a high level of technical expertise, a strong focus on quality, and the ability to develop solutions tailored to the specific needs of professionals exposed to different risks. The idea took shape through the experience of Diogo Santiago, the company's Managing Partner, who brought industry knowledge to the business and the vision that workplace safety requires more than simply supplying equipment.

In industries that manufacture insulating gloves and other equipment designed to protect against electrical hazards, prevention must be part of every stage of production, from machine operation to quality control

When talking about personal protective equipment, the most common image is that of a worker using a glove, helmet, or other PPE to perform a hazardous activity. But there is an earlier stage that also requires attention: the manufacture of this equipment. In an industry specialized in producing insulating gloves for electrical activities, such as Prots, safety must begin inside the factory itself.

Cracks, punctures and changes in texture are among the signs that require attention before performing work involving electrical hazards. Rubber insulating gloves are essential equipment for professionals who perform activities involving electrical hazards. As they constitute a protective barrier against electric shock, their integrity must be carefully checked. An apparently minor damage can compromise the insulating properties of the material and put the worker at risk. Therefore, inspection before use is essential! Stay alert to prevent future problems!

Understand the differences between Classes 00, 0, 1, 2, 3, and 4 and why choosing the correct PPE is essential to reducing the risk of electric shock

In activities involving electricity, the selection of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) cannot be based solely on appearance, comfort, or price. When the work involves contact or the possibility of contact with energized parts, rubber insulating gloves are one of the essential elements of hand protection and must be specified according to the voltage level and the characteristics of the work.

Brazilian protective equipment company opens operation in Orlando, Florida, and plans to sell up to 4,000 pairs of gloves per month in the U.S. market

Prots has taken an important step in its international expansion strategy with the opening of its U.S. operation, located in Orlando, Florida. The new operation marks the beginning of the company's exports to the North American market and reinforces its goal of expanding the presence of the Brazilian brand overseas.

Technology investment expected to double the company’s production capacity, as it has just opened a facility in the United States and is targeting new markets in Latin America

Prots, a national reference in the manufacturing of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), has taken another important step in its growth and internationalization strategy. The company has begun implementing a robotic automation system at its manufacturing facility in Araquari, Santa Catarina, a project representing an investment of R$ 2 million that is expected to transform the company’s production capacity in the coming months.

Prots, a 100% Brazilian company specializing in the manufacture of personal protective equipment for the electrical sector, announces a period of accelerated expansion. With a factory in Araquari, Santa Catarina, the company is robotizing its operations to optimize the production of insulating gloves and sleeves, reinforcing its position as one of the leading suppliers in the Brazilian market. The company estimates that by 2027, the entire manufacturing complex in Santa Catarina will be operated using robots.
