Personal protective equipment also known as PPE covers everything from protective clothing, gloves, head wear, eyewear, hearing, footwear and respiratory. These PPE products are designed to protect the wearer’s body from injury or infection. The hazards addressed by protective equipment include physical, electrical, heat, chemicals, biohazards, and airborne particulate matter.

Eye and Face Protection
Safety glasses provide protection from particulate matter-causing eye injuries, such as metal slivers, wood chips, broken glass and blunt force traumas when excessive force comes into contact with the eye.
Respirators
Respirators are protective devices worn over the nose and mouth (and sometimes the entire face) to filter out harmful airborne particles, gases, or vapors. They are essential in workplaces where employees may be exposed to dust, chemicals, smoke, or infectious agents.
Gloves
There are many types of gloves for many different applications and generally, they are used to prevent mechanical trauma, chemical burns due to direct contact, or food contamination in the food preparation or manufacturing arena.
Safety Boots
Comfort, safety, and durability stand as critical considerations in the selection of safety boots. Prioritize your well-being and professional image by choosing the appropriate pair tailored to your work environment.
Hearing protection
Hearing protection consists of earplugs and earmuffs. Workers who are regularly exposed to high noise levels should be provided with hearing protection by the employers, as they are a low-cost intervention to prevent hearing loss.
Protective Headwear
Hard hats are required when working in areas where there is a potential for injury to the head from objects falling from above; bumping into fixed objects, such as pipes or beams; or contact with electrical hazards.
Sun Protection
Sun Protection is the practice of taking simple steps to reduce overexposure to UV rays and heat while working outdoors, especially in Western Australia. This can include but not limited to sun screen, lip balm, wide brim hat and plenty of liquid hydration.
