Officials say the male, who is in his 40s, was engulfed in flames.

He ran towards the front of the store where some carpet caught on fire.   An employee attempted to assist the victim.  

 

The victim was flown to the Temple University Hospital Burn Center and is in extremely critical condition with burns to over 80 percent of his body.   The employee suffered 2nd and 3rd degree burns to his hands and arms.

is KEY

Proper care, usage and storage are key in keeping your insulated rubber gloves in good working order for your SAFETY.

Glove Care:

  • Wash with a mild soap, rinse thoroughly with water, and pat dry with a clean, soft cloth.
  • Do not expose to chemicals, petroleum-based products, solvents, hand creams, pastes, or salves.
  • Gloves must be cleaned, inspected, and dialectically tested if they are suspected of being exposed to a contaminant or of being physically damaged in any way.
  • Gloves must be dialectically tested every six months, regardless of the usage amount during that time.

Glove Usage:

  • Always remove jewelry and sharp objects from your body before inserting your hands in the gloves.
  • Air test and visually inspect, inside and out, before each use.
  • Wear a leather protector over the rubber-insulated gloves to protect against abrasions and limit UV exposure.

Glove Storage:

  • Store the gloves in a glove bag with the tips of the fingers pointing up and the gloves hanging free from any creasing or crushing by surrounding items.
  • Glove storage locations should be:
    • Cool, and as dry as possible.
    • Free from ozone, chemicals, oils, solvents, damaging vapors, and fumes.
    • Away from sunlight and electrical discharges, including fluorescent lighting and arc welding.
