wearer protection

Protection is the heart of everything we do as a business

Our company was founded on creating garments that protect people at work. This foundation has enabled us to become one of the largest workwear companies in the world, with specialisms across all areas.

Protection

leading the way in protective garments for nearly 100 years

Protective workwear stands as an essential safeguard in numerous industries, serving as a formidable barrier against potential hazards and ensuring the safety and well-being of workers. Whether it's flame-resistant attire for those in the energy sector, high-visibility vests for construction personnel, or chemical-resistant suits in laboratories, this specialized clothing shields individuals from a spectrum of dangers. By providing a shield against burns, impacts, chemicals, and other potential risks, protective workwear significantly reduces the likelihood of accidents and injuries.

Beyond the physical protection it offers, such garments also contribute to mental reassurance, allowing employees to focus on tasks with enhanced confidence. In essence, the utilisation of appropriate protective workwear not only demonstrates a company's commitment to the welfare of its workforce but also cultivates a culture of safety where employees can perform their duties with reduced apprehension, fostering both productivity and peace of mind.
