Industry is a hazardous place and workers need protection from the dangers posed by impacts, dust, gases, fire, and all the other threats they face. Operators must therefore wear personal protective equipment (steel toecap boots, safety shoesmechanical protection gloves, goggles, construction helmets and ear defenders) in order to stay safe while accomplishing their mission. But it is not often easy to choose the right PPE in front of a multitude of manufacturers. We have thus produced several buying guides with tips and recommendations to help you make the right purchasing decision.
