The Ipumpglove
Beverly Clayton created the product concept in 2012 and officially launched her Ipumpglove business in 2013. The product concept is simple: a washable and reusable glove that provides protection against germs as well as gasoline and smell of fuel. the Ipumpglove blends a proprietary formula of natural products with a high-grade essential oil to aide in protecting while nurturing the skin. Clayton is also working on the packaging to be an aromatic for the car.
Meet Beverly Clayton
With all the scary illnesses out there, and all the dirty public surfaces we touch on a daily basis, Beverly Clayton decided to do something about it.
As a healthcare professional, Clayton knows hand care hygiene is essential for avoiding the increase of community acquired infections. Because gas pump handles were found to be the dirtiest things most Americans come into contact with on a daily basis, that's where Clayton began her journey.
Clayton is dedicated to improving public health through the product as well as public education through her net profits. That's why she donates 20 percent of her proceeds to Crayons to Computers, a free store for teachers of needy students in Greater Cincinnati. "There is no greater value than education and making a difference in a student's life that is my mission," says Clayton.
Clayton's goal is for the Ipumpglove to be available at gas stations, and grocery stores, for fundraising events, charitable events and businesses as a marketing tool for advertisement. Finally, Clayton would like to see a manufacturer continue her vision for mass production; currently she personally sews, decorates, protects and packages the product.
