Eagle Protect is spearheading the inaugural 'Global Glove Safety Day' on September 18, an initiative that aligns seamlessly with National Food Safety Education Month. This day serves as a compelling reminder that food safety is truly #InOurHands, both in a literal and figurative sense. It underscores the critical role that safe food handling gloves play while honoring the memory of my son, Riley, who tragically passed away at 16 months from E.coli in 1993. Although that pivotal fast food E.coli outbreak led to significant strides in food safety, our work is far from complete.
The CDC reports that foodborne illnesses impact 48 million Americans each year, resulting in 128,000 hospitalizations and 3,000 deaths. Eagle Protect’s unwavering commitment to food safety is reflected in their rigorous standards, transparent supply chain, and third-party testing—ensuring their gloves are not just products, but vital protectors of public health.
As a father, author, and food safety advocate, I have collaborated with countless industry leaders to enhance food safety practices and uphold their legacy of safety. I firmly believe that the right safe food handling gloves are essential in mitigating risk through superior protection and ethical sourcing.
PEP Nexus is proud to stand with Eagle Protect in their mission to prevent foodborne illnesses, ensuring that in every sense, safe food handling gloves truly place the responsibility of food safety #InOurHands. Let us recognize this significant day by committing to make every meal a safe one.
Food safety is #InOurHands.
