The document summarizes KONG brand gloves that were developed in conjunction with major oil and gas companies to address hand injuries, which represented more than 70% of injuries in the industry. KONG gloves feature patented technologies and are tested on oil rigs to provide protection, grip, and dexterity. The product line has expanded from an original glove in 2008 to include nine job-specific models.

2. In 2008, the Oil & Gas Safety Committee, with representatives from ExxonMobil, ConocoPhillips, Chevron, and
many other respected industry leaders, put out a call-to-action to the industrial supplier market asking them to
solve a lingering problem in their industry; hand safety. Eye, head, back and feet safety had been addressed,
but hand injuries represented more than 70% of all injuries in the field. These injuries were not only causing harm
to their employees, but were also costing a considerable amount of money and lost productivity. Ironclad
Performance Wear, Orr Safety Corporation and the Oil & Gas Safety Committee joined forces to address this
problem. The KONG® brand is the result of this collaboration. We visit oil platforms regularly to gain feedback
from real workers to ensure that we are on the forefront of innovation. What began as a one-glove solution in
2008, has evolved into nine job-specific models designed specifically to address the needs of both “on the drill
head” and “off the drill head” workers. This is a testament to our ongoing commitment, providing engineered
solutions that meet the ever-changing demands of the Oil and Gas Industry workers and safety managers.
