PPE and safety accessories from Dickies
Dickies offer the full range of PPE and safety accessories. They offer a wide range of tough work gloves, including Showa gloves; a range of eye protection, including safety spectacles, goggles, and visor kits; hearing protection, including ear defenders, ear plugs; as well as respirators and disposable respirators.
Dickies' safety footwear range includes safety boots that provide good footing and possess excellent anti-slip properties. The Antrim super safety boot, which is smart yet highly durable, benefits from a steel toecap and midsole protection with a full insock and padded tongue and anti-slip for all-round comfort. It conforms to the footwear standard EN ISO 20345.
Dickies' work boots benefit from midsole protection for penetration resistance in this area. The most common type of UK safety footwear has traditionally been steel toecap boots.Composite safety footwear, however, is now becoming increasing popular as a lightweight safety footwear option. All the boots comply with EN20345 British Standards.
Judy Clay, corporate director, who oversees PPE development, said: 'I am dictated to by EU legislation. We make sure that our entire PPE product is compliant using notified bodies in the UK; compliance is taken very seriously throughout the business. Dickies continues to research the market with a view to assessing what, if anything, is missing from the PPE range in order to develop it further.'
