Problems Procuring Protective Wear? You Aren't Alone!

MDS Can Help Increase Service Levels & Extend Budgets

If you have been loyal to The Safety Zone®, Impact Products or Malt Industries brand of products, then chances are you experiencing difficulties in procuring disposable personal protection equipment ( PPE) such as coveralls, frocks, or gloves for your facilty or job site.

Acquisitions and bankruptcy of these major suppliers have created a drop in service levels and a void in providing workplace safety supplies in a reasonable manner forcing customers across the United States to scramble for supplies to fill supply chains.

On July 19, 2024, Hospeco® Brands Group’s bid was accepted by a Delaware bankruptcy court as the winning offer for the assets of Supply Source Enterprises (SSE), comprised of The Safety Zone®, Impact Products and Malt Industries.

If you are a customer of these SSE brands, unfortunately you have been forced to navigate through U.S. Bankruptcy proceedings while enduring multiple product deletions, SKU changes, price increases, lengthy shipping times, empty customer service departments and ridiculous changes to minimum order requirements. And it won't get any easier anytime soon as the SSE brands will soon be converting packaging to Hospeco® labeling sometime is September 2024 forcing some businesses  to rewrite their specificiations. Frankly, it has end-users feeling like they are navigating through the pandemic PPE supply shortages again.

Unfortunately, customers who rely on disposable personal protection equipment (PPE) or commercial cleaning and maintenance accessories cannot accept abrupt logistical delays and it has forced customers to scramble to procure alternative supplies critical for the safety and productivity of their operations. If you are considering a conversion at your facility, we would like you to know we have options for you!
