An overwhelming majority of Swedish craftsmen use the mobile phone daily in their work, and the absolute majority of them have a smartphone. Guide’s new touchscreen feature that works with smartphones allows you to keep your gloves on. Take a call and avoid getting your hands cold and wet.
A survey among Swedish craftsmen shows that nearly nine out of ten use a smartphone.* A large number of Swedish craftsmen are also self-employed, and live with their office in their pocket. Consequently there is a need for gloves that make administrative tasks easier – answering calls, sending e-mails, documenting with the camera and accessing the internet.
– „When we look at our range we start with the users' various needs in order to offer the right glove for the right type of work and the right customer. We have now developed three new work gloves for different areas of application, but with one thing in common – the touchscreen function that works on touch panels and smartphones”, explains ?sa Lindberg Svensson, Category Manager at Guide.
Avoid cold and wet hands when answering the phone
