PHOENIX

Phoenix is Eagle Direct's very own brand of vinyl, latex and nitrile gloves.

The name was derived from the Legend of the Phoenix. The following short story can be found on the bottom side of all of our disposable glove inner boxes:
The Phoenix bird symbolises immortality, resurrection, and life after death. In ancient Greek and Egyptian mythology, it is associated with the sun god. According to the Greeks, the bird lives in Arabia, near a cool well. Every morning at dawn, the sun god would stop his chariot to listen to the bird sing a beautiful song while it bathed in the well. Only one Phoenix exists at one time. When the bird felt its death was near, every 500 to 1,461 years, it would build a nest of aromatic wood and set it on fire. The bird then was consumed by the flames. A new phoenix sprang forth from the pyre. It embalmed the ashes of its predecessor in an egg of myrrh and flew with it to Heliopolis, “City of the Sun”, where the egg was deposited on the alter of the sun god.

Phoenix brand gloves represent the result of decades of knowledge and experience in the careful manufacture of quality gloves. Like the Legend of the Phoenix Bird our gloves have arisen from this previous experience to be of the highest quality, quality you can rely on.
