Skin protection products are used to reduce skin irritation caused by working materials. They are used in particular for wet work and when handling substances that are mildly irritating to the skin. The choice of the right skin protection product depends heavily on the area of application.

If the skin is not adequately protected from stress, skin diseases can occur, which can lead to long periods of absence from work or even loss of employment. It is important to reliably protect the skin from harmful substances. Protective gloves cannot always be used for this purpose.
Wherever organisational or technical measures or protective equipment cannot prevent direct skin contact with hazardous substances, the skin-friendly Aktivin® skin protection products show their protective effect. Economical to use and of proven quality.
In addition to skin cleansing and skin care products, skin protection products are part of preventive protective measures to protect the skin from irritation and disease as far as possible. Only the regular and correct use of skin protection products protects the skin preventively and reduces the risk of an intact barrier function when the skin is exposed to stress.
However, it is still important to use skin protection products in the form of creams and lotions in the workplace: in many cases, the protective product must be absorbed quickly so that work can continue without major delays due to greasy hands.
Skin protection products strengthen our skin and support the barrier function. However, the protective effect is only present if they are adapted to the working substance. The decisive factor for the selection of skin protection products is the specific skin exposure, for example through:
We also offer various types of greasy skin protection products, which should be selected according to the protective functions and preferences of the user.
A distinction is made between skin protection cream, skin protection lotion and skin protection foam. All types of skin protection products are a mixture of water and oil. A skin protection foam is additionally loosened with air.
An emulsifier is added to combine the two substances - the result is an emulsion. Depending on the main component, they are divided into oil-in-water emulsions (O/W emulsion) and water-in-oil emulsions (W/O emulsion).
Skin protection products based on natural beeswax are ideal for occupational safety and are particularly beneficial for rough, chapped and irritated skin. The wax protects the skin from moisture loss caused by skin-irritating substances, making it supple and smooth.
Skin protection products containing beeswax provide optimum protection at work when handling various aggressive substances. Beeswax also provides very effective protection against disinfectants, weak acids, alkaline solutions and chemical-based cleaners that would quickly attack sensitive hands. You can purchase both skin protection cream and skin protection lotion with beeswax from us.
Anyone who works outdoors or is exposed to artificially generated UV radiation, such as when welding or working with a gas torch, must protect their skin with UV protection products. In addition to solar radiation, radiation from artificial UV sources can also cause painful sunburns and skin cancer if adequate protection is not provided. With our UV protection cream and UV protection foam, we offer you reliable protection against sunburn, skin damage and premature skin ageing.
The risk of developing skin cancer from work-related UV radiation has now been proven. Since 1 January 2015, squamous cell carcinomas and actinic keratoses have been recognised as occupational diseases by the Federal Ministry of Labour and Social Affairs (BMAS). The diseases are usually characterised by reddish-brown, scaly patches on the skin of parts of the body that have frequently been exposed to the sun.
Adequate skin protection products are needed. Employers are legally obliged to analyse workplaces for possible activities that could endanger the skin of their employees. It is advisable to carry out the risk assessment with the help of the company doctor. The necessary skin protection products, skin cleansing products and skin care products must be provided. With a skin protection and hygiene plan, companies and facilities can precisely define the application in the work process and ensure occupational safety.
