Find What You Need Faster: Introducing AI-Powered Search at MDS Associates 

 Finding the right supplies should be easy—whether you know the exact product number or simply have a task in mind. That’s why MDS Associates has introduced a new AI-powered search and AI Assistant at MDSassociates.com. Describe what you need, search for a preferred brand, or ask a product question. Our new search experience helps you discover relevant options with less browsing and fewer steps

Search in Your Own Words

You don’t always know how a product is named in a catalog. With AI-assisted search, you can start with everyday language and the features that matter to you.

Try searching: “biodegradable glove”

This search helps you explore biodegradable gloves and related options with environmental features. Review each product’s materials, specifications, and biodegradation conditions to find an option that fits your purchasing needs. Products appearing in the results include:

• SHOWA® 6110PF — Green, 4-mil disposable nitrile gloves with EBT® biodegradation technology.

• SHOWA® 6112PF — Black, 4-mil disposable nitrile gloves with EBT® technology.

• Superior Glove® Dexterity® S7NT — Biodegradable knit work gloves with nitrile-coated palms for everyday handling.

• Superior Glove® Dexterity® S15OFNT — Biodegradable cotton knit gloves with high-visibility nitrile palms for wet grip.

• SHOWA® 383 — Flexible EBT® work gloves with microporous nitrile palms for general handling.

• SHOWA® 9905PF — Blue, 6-mil EBT® disposable nitrile gloves with an 11-inch extended cuff.

• SHOWA® 8005PF — Blue, 8-mil EBT® disposable nitrile gloves for a thicker single-use option.

• SW® TrueForm® TF-95LG — Green, 4-mil nitrile exam gloves with EcoTek® technology and moisturizing EnerGel®.

It’s a convenient way to discover alternatives without remembering a particular brand or item number.

Combine a Brand Name with the Features You Need

If you already have a preferred manufacturer or protection rating in mind, include both in your search.

Try searching: “Superior A9 cut glove”

The search helps you find Superior Glove products on our website with an ANSI A9 cut-resistance rating. You can get straight to relevant options and compare their coatings, construction, and other features.

Get Specific About Your Preferences

You can also describe a combination of features, such as cut resistance and a thinner feel.

Try searching: “thinnest A6 cut glove”

This search brings up options to explore for A6 cut protection, dexterity, and reduced bulk. Products appearing in the results include:

• Superior Glove® Dexterity Max™ S24TAXHN Haptica™

Search results may change as our catalog is updated.

Ask the AI Assistant for Help Getting Started

Sometimes you have a question before you have a shopping list. Our new AI Assistant lets you describe your application and ask for general guidance alongside related product suggestions.

Try asking: “I work with steel. What level of cut protection should I consider?”

The assistant can help you explore cut-protection considerations and related gloves on our website. Adding details—such as whether you handle sharp sheet-metal edges, work with oily parts, or need dexterity for small components—can help make its responses more relevant.

Use this guidance as a starting point. Final protective equipment selection should follow your workplace hazard assessment and the manufacturer’s specifications.

Spend Less Time Searching and More Time Comparing

Our new search tools make it easier to move from “I need something for this job” to a useful selection of products. You can search by need, combine brands with specifications, and ask questions as you explore.

When you want personal assistance, the MDS Associates team is still here to help with product questions, purchasing options, and volume pricing.
