Sam Associates, one of the safety equipment and clothing suppliers in Sri Lanka, introduced Mallcom (India) Ltd branded safety foot and hand protection products in Sri Lanka at a press conference held at the Galadari Hotel, Colombo recently.

Speaking at the occasion, Sam Associates Managing Partner Omar Mohammed said: “We have reached yet another milestone in our relationsh­ip, where Sam Associates, being in the safety business for over two decades, partners with Mallcom India, manufactur­er of foot and hand protection products for over 35 years. Supplying quality PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) has always been our objective and we believe in keeping our customers’ workforce safe from hazards.

Sam Associates has a strong presence in supplying PPE to the manufactur­ing, constructi­on and industrial sector, according to Omar Mohammed. He also reiterated that he believes that this additional portfolio of products from Mallcom will immensely benefit the local working community.

Establishe­d in 1983, with a progressiv­e 35 year history, Mallcom (India) Ltd carries a vast portfolio of shoes, boots, overalls, and safety clothing, and caters its products to 54 countries worldwide.

Mallcom Marketing Manager Chandan Chattoraj said: “We find that our core strength is in exclusivel­y PPE, that too on the foot protection and hand gloves. So being an expert in that we thought we should have our own brand, that is Mallcom, and the other brand we have is Tiger, so both are the same brand under the registered brand Mallcom India Ltd, and come from the same house.” For three decades, Mallcom has been working exclusivel­y for its clientele in various industries across the globe. Mallcom’s clientele spread globally is as follows: 47 percent in Europe, 20 percent in Australasi­a, 15 percent in North America, 11 percent in South America and seven percent in Africa.
