What Industries Should Buy PPE in Bulk?

by Alex Gurevich on December 07, 2020

The term PPE, or Personal Protective Equipment, has been in the news a lot this year. PPE items like face masks, face shields, hand sanitizer, and others have been in the spotlight largely because of the role they can play in slowing the spread of COVID-19. But PPE products aren’t cheap for many businesses and, particularly in the beginning, created a new expense that many companies simply weren’t prepared for. However, many companies can save money and get all the PPE they need by ordering in bulk. Here are a few of the top industries that can benefit from this practice.

 

Retail

Retail locations are one of the best examples of a business that can benefit from bulk PPE purchases. Employees are interacting with countless customers throughout the day, often handling merchandise, cash, and credit cards. The use of gloves and face masks has become quite widespread, but in order to ensure every employee has ample PPE to use for every shift, buying in bulk can be a great option. It’s possible to even order cloth face masks in bulk to save even more!

 

Restaurants

Similarly, restaurants are excellent places for bulk PPE purchases. Not only can PPE help to maintain the strict health standards that should already be in place in a food service location, but this equipment can also help keep employees and patrons safe from the spread of COVID-19. Whether your business is a fast-food establishment with a drive-thru or a sit-down location with patrons dining in or using outside tables, bulk PPE purchases can ensure your management, hosts, chefs, and all other staff members stay safe. You might even consider purchasing extra face masks for customers who don’t have their own.

 

Offices

Office buildings can be hotspots for disease, which is why bulk purchases of face masks and hand sanitizer can be crucial. No matter what your office does, it’s likely that you’ve got new people coming in and out all day long. The use of hand sanitizer in particular can be helpful to ensure that your employees don’t come into contact with COVID-19 and then spread it to the surfaces around your building. Even if you don’t want to buy in bulk, you can invest in thermometers for employee temperature checks as well as disinfection cabinets for the laptops and tablets your employees use on a daily basis.

 

Government

Finally, government offices make great candidates for bulk purchases of PPE. Whether your office operates at the city, state, or federal level, it’s vital to keep your employees safe so that you can continue to serve your community at peak efficiency. We know it’s especially important for government offices to keep a close eye on their budgets, which is why we encourage bulk PPE purchases.
