Businesses across the United States have been closed for months to slow down the transmission of the new coronavirus. However, now that the curve has flattened, these same firms are gradually reopening their doors for business.

The problem is that a flat curve does not imply that things are back to normal. COVID-19 is still a genuine concern, and businesses reopening will need to take extra steps to ensure that another round of infections doesn’t ensue. Stocking up on health and safety items like personal protective equipment and hand sanitizers is one of those steps.

These products are in great demand and short supply, with thousands of firms slated to open at the same time. This is where distributors enter the picture. Wholesalers, unlike regular shops, can handle large orders of sanitizers and personal protective equipment that businesses need to reopen.

This article will cover the value that wholesale PPE offers for individuals and businesses. 

    Tell Us About Your PPE Needs

​So what’s the value of Wholesale PPE?

​It's one thing to know what products you'll need to reopen, but procuring them is another. Distributors can be your best ally when big-box retailers and independent merchants try to have safe goods in stock.

When we work with businesses across the US, we are able to effectively analyze what type of products they may need, and set up fulfillment ahead of time to save stress. With our inventory manager services, we can provide direct assistance in delivering directly to your front door, and make sure you’re never low in stock. 

Why do we focus on Wholesale PPE?

Since the global pandemic of COVID-19, we saw the dire need of businesses to receive low cost PPE materials, even if it's in an emergency. At the beginning of the pandemic, there were many retailers popping up that had false promises of being able to survive in this industry. With our years of experience in PPE distribution and connections across the industry, we are able to solve many of the problems businesses have when it comes to PPE supplies. 

PPE Products For Businesses

With uncertainty about reopening businesses around the country, the CDC has asked all businesses to ensure extra safety measures. We help with our great service and integral selection of products. 

Stocking up on goods that can decrease the virus's transmission from individual to individual is one of these precautions. This encompasses, for example, the following items:
  • Hand sanitizer stations 
  • Alcohol-based hand sanitizers 
  • Posters and signs that encourage hand hygiene
  • Contactless payment terminals
  • Disposable disinfectant wipes so that workers can wipe down surfaces after use.
  • Gloves to keep toxic chemicals at bay
  • KN95 face masks and other PPE products based on the working environment ​

​Buying PPE Wholesale

PPE is not only necessary for the safety of your employees and customers, but it may also be necessary to reopen your business. For example, many governments and jurisdictions now require employees who engage directly with consumers, such as stylists, physicians, and restaurant waiters, to wear masks and safety glasses. Even when PPE isn't needed, most government agencies strongly recommend it.

The problem is that these new requirements and guidelines have prompted demand for personal protective equipment to rise, making these supplies harder to come by and more difficult to obtain from traditional merchants. As a result, purchasing PPE in bulk is their only alternative for many business owners.

If you've never bought PPE wholesale previously, there are a few things you should know before making a purchase.

To decide which type of PPE is suitable for your business, you should consider the following:
  • the degree of protection you need
  • the working environment of your employees
