What PPE do I need?
The type of PPE required will depend on the work environment:
- Respiratory Protection: If you work in an environment where oxygen levels are low or where normal breathing is not possible due to the presence of harmful substances, you will need a respiratory device.
- Safety Work Gloves: Our PPE range also offers a wide selection of hand protection. The range covers not only basic disposable safety gloves, but also leather & cotton gloves. There are also different gloves for specific uses including chemical resistant, mechanical and welding.
- Ear Protection: Using hearing protection equipment will provide you with extra benefits such as noise reduction, elevated comfort and continuous wear. The level of PPE can vary from low to medium noise levels, suitable for landscaping to industrial work.
- Knee Pads: One of the most popular body protection items are knee pads. People who need to crawl on their knees often for their job, really need this type of protection to prevent damaged over a period of time.

- Suitable for the nature of work
- A proper size and fit for the person
- Properly stored and maintained.
