PPE Supplies Direct - A One Stop Shop For Protective Equipment

To some, Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) may seem unnecessary, but there are many reasons why so many construction firms are stringent on its application – and why H&S come down heavily on those contractors and sub-contractors who choose not to wear their protective clothing.

We all deserve to stay safe at work – and with the physically demanding nature of construction, more attention has been paid over the years on the ongoing welfare of construction workers; therefore, adhering to PPE guidelines is vital to both workers health and their career!

Put simply, PPE exists to help prevent the risk of workplace injury, and at its most basic, should include hard-hat helmets, steel-cap boots, clear protection glasses or goggles, gloves, and high-vis jackets & trousers.

Unfortunately, the cost of providing PPE can eat into profitability, which is why PPE supplies direct Ltd prides itself on striving to be a market leader in competitively priced PPE as well as being client focused. Our aim; to provide the best quality at the lowest prices. Our dedicated sales team are a one stop shop for all PPE requirements.

But it doesn't stop there, PPE Supplies Direct can also supply quality office wear too, all customisable, in house, and again all at very competitive prices. What about signage? Yes, we have an extensive range on our website, as well as first aid, cleaning and spillage consumables but if you need something, your account manager will endeavour to provide it.

Whether you are wanting eye protection, respirators, children's Hi Vis or embroidered polos, navigating through our website is so easy, and our customisation module provides an easy to use and unique experience. We want to become your one stop shop.
