PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT

PPE anytime and anywhere possible. Observe the directions for use, keep them well, and
Wearing a helmet provides protection that can prevent injury to the head.

perfect protection.

Wearing a mask at work is no luxury, definitely not when coming into contact with
hazardous materials. 15% of the employees within the EU inhale vapours, smoke, powder or
dusk while performing a job. Dust masks offer protection against fine dust and other
dangerous particles. If the materials are truly toxic, use a full-face mask. This adheres tightly
to the face, to protect the nose and mouth against harmful pollution.

Hands and fingers are often injured, so it is vital to protect them properly. Depending
on the sector you work in, you can choose from gloves for different applications.
Safety shoes (type Sb, S1, S2 or S3) and boots (type S4 or S5) are the ideal solution to
protect the feet against heavy weights. An antiskid sole is useful when working in a damp
environment, definitely if you know that 16,2% of all industrial accidents are caused by
tripping or sliding. On slippery surfaces, such as snow and ice, shoe claws are recommended.
at work is a must: a high-visibility jacket and pants made of a strong fabric can help prevent
accidents. Just like the hand protection, there are versions for different applications.
