ProtexEM: the post-shift repair cream for professionals’ hands

Hand protection and repair: an essential investment for those who work

Hands are the main working tool for millions of professionals in Italy. From mechanics to hairdressers, from carpenters to food industry professionals, hands are constantly exposed to stress, aggressive substances and conditions that compromise their health. Nettuno’s ProtexEM is the post-shift repair treatment that firmly meets this need, protecting and regenerating the skin after an intense day of work.

Why workers’ hands need specific care

Those who work with their hands on a daily basis know how vulnerable they are. Repeated contact with fatty, oily substances, detergents, water, solvents and abrasive materials cause:

• Dryness and cracking
• Irritation and redness
• Loss of skin elasticity
• Premature ageing of the skin
• Occupational dermatitis

ProtexEM: the post-shift repair treatment that makes a difference

ProtexEM stands out as a specific solution for the post-work shift, a crucial moment when the skin requires repair and nourishment after hours of exposure to aggressive factors.

The scientific formula of ProtexEM

Dermatologically tested and formulated without silicones, dyes and parabens, ProtexEM focuses its effectiveness on three key actions:

NOURISHES & REPAIRS SKIN

Shea butter: the main ingredient of the formulation, rich in vitamins A, D, E, F and essential fatty acids. Shea butter penetrates deep into the skin layers, regenerating damaged cells and creating a natural protective barrier. Particularly effective for chapped hands damaged by heavy work such as metalwork, construction, mechanics and painting.

Camelina oil: this precious vegetable oil, which is still not widely known but extremely effective, is rich in omega-3 and omega-6. Its light molecular structure allows for rapid absorption without leaving greasy residue, ideal for those working in sectors such as carpentry, window and door frames, heating and plumbing and industrial maintenance. Camelina oil has natural anti-ageing properties, combating premature ageing caused by exposure to chemicals and weathering.

DEEPLY HYDRATES YOUR HANDS

Glycerin: a humectant par excellence, glycerin attracts and retains water in the surface layers of the skin, essential for those who work in dry environments or in contact with dehydrating substances. Particularly suitable for professionals in the food and catering sector, hairdressers, trichologists and operators in the cosmetics industry.

Urea: a substance naturally found in our body, urea is a powerful moisturiser that works by restoring the hydrolipidic film of the skin. With the concentrations in ProtexEM, urea promotes the exfoliation of dead cells and cell renewal, keeping hands smooth and soft even after prolonged shifts in auto repair shops, printing shops, gardening and horticulture.

PROTECTS HANDS WITH ANTIOXIDANTS

Vitamin E (Tocopherols): powerful antioxidant that neutralises free radicals produced by exposure to pollutants, UV and chemical substances. Vitamin E protects cell membranes from deterioration, preventing premature skin ageing common in professions such as body shop fitting, painting, the chemical industry and painters.

Polyphenols and Phytophenols: naturally contained in Shea butter and Camelina oil, these plant compounds enhance antioxidant action, soothe inflammation, and support tissue regeneration. Essential for those working in the textile, mechanical and roofing industries.

Who needs ProtexEM: professions and industries for hand cream application

ProtexEM is the ideal solution for all professions that use hands as their main tool: from industrial maintenance to auto repair shops, from metalwork to construction, from plumbing and heating to carpentry. Body shops, painters, decorators, but also hairdressers food and catering workers, printers, gardeners and professionals in the chemical, textile, mechanical and cosmetic industries find ProtexEM to be their daily ally for protecting and repairing their hands after every shift.

The constant use of hand barrier cream after the work shift

The effectiveness of ProtexEM is fully expressed when the product is used consistently at the end of each work shift. Applying the cream after work means immediately repairing the damage suffered by the skin during the day, nourishing deeply while resting (when the active ingredients penetrate better), preventing the progressive accumulation of damage that leads to occupational dermatitis and maintaining healthy hands and full working capacity over time.

How to use ProtexEM hand cream for best results

1. At the end of the shift: wash your hands thoroughly with delicate detergents
2. Dry well: pat gently without rubbing
3. Apply ProtexEM: massage an adequate amount into your hands, wrists and forearms
4. Allow to absorb: non-greasy texture absorbs quickly
5. Repeat daily: consistency is the key to lasting results

For particularly stressful situations on the skin, application can also be repeated during breaks.
