Personal Protective Eye Wear, Ear Protectors and Hand Gloves

Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) covers a wide variety of equipment for use where safety measures are in place for the benefit of both employees and employers. In the UK, it is mandatory for employers to assess the risks from hazard and to safeguard employees with personal protective equipment to remove the hazardous risk from causing injury to those who work in the respective environment.

Eye and face protection is required in work places where there is a risk from airborne debris could cause injury to the face and eyes. We stock a range of protective glasses and protective goggles for eye protection in relevant industries. This could include manufacturing and laboratory work especially where chemical use is common place. It is important for the employer or purchaser to make an adequate assessment of the risk and to purchase appropriate equipment. Where airborne debris is commonplace, wrap around glasses and safety eyewear is essential or full safety goggles with side coverage.

Hearing protection is an absolute necessity through the use of ear muffs and ear protectors where the person is subject to high noise levels on a continuous basis. Especially with the use of heavy and industrial machinery, workers must be prevented from suffering permanent hearing damage by being exposed to continuous loud noise. We supply a range of personal protective ear protectors and ear muffs that may be appropriate for some clients. However, it is important to note that the client must make an accurate assessment and purchase the correct ear protector for the job in hand.

Hand safety gloves are important where continuous handling of materials and machinery in the workplace can cause long term and irreparable damage to hands and wrists. This could be through chaffing or abrasion, coming into contact with hazardous materials and chemicals or through continuous vibrations. Employees must also be protected against exposure of the hands to extreme temperatures or continuously high temperatures, cuts and lacerations and the absorption of chemicals through continuous handling of the same substance. We supply a range of hand gloves for personal protection including PVC gloves and waterproof gloves to prevent the absorption of harmful chemical to the skin. We also supply rigger gloves for the prevention of cuts and abrasions and to protect the hands and skin. It is important for the client to make an accurate risk assessment before choosing the right glove for the job in hand.
