Aluminised PPE is clothing coated with a reflective aluminium layer to protect against radiant heat. It is commonly used in high-temperature environments, such as foundries, to shield workers from extreme heat and molten splashes. We offer a range of aluminised PPE so get in touch with our team today.
Regular cleaning prevents garments from becoming impregnated with sweat, oils, or dust, which can compromise their protective qualities. Professional laundering ensures garments maintain their safety standards and extend their lifespan.
