SafeSource Direct can manufacture 108,000 gloves per hour, and by January 2024, the company plans to be able to produce more than 2 billion gloves per year.
“As the company expands its capacity over the coming months, it will be among the largest manufacturers of chemo-rated nitrile exam gloves in America — if not the largest,” SafeSource Direct said in a statement.
With its joint venture with New Orleans-based Ochsner Health, SafeSource Direct is the only PPE manufacturer that’s U.S. provider-owned. The system’s CEO of ventures, Aimee Quirk, said its partnership is a “long-term, sustainable solution to mitigate risks inherent in the global supply chain.”
