Respiratory protection

Full masks

In order to protect yourself against gases and vapours, you need special gas masks. These re-usable masks are used in the event of frequent use and for wearing for long periods of time. These are also available as full-face masks, which also have a face cover.

If the half-face and full-face masks are additionally required to provide protection against particles, then combination filters are the right choice. Here, particle and gas filters are integrated into a filter housing whereby the particle filter is always spatially arranged in front of the gas filter.

Important ingredients in skin protection products

Similar to many skin care products, specific active ingredients support skin moisturising, reduce itchiness and promote healing:

• Allantoin is a natural substance which promotes the healing of wounds and has cell-rejuvenating effects. It is used for alleviating skin irritations
• Glycerine prevents the loss of moisture in the skin.
• Witch hazel is a plant extract from the Hamamelidaceae family. It relieves slight itching and promotes the healing of wounds.
• Panthenol is a provitamin. It strengthens the skin’s barrier function, increases the keratin layer’s ability to retain water, and improves the skin’s elasticity. Additionally, it reduces inflammation and itching.
• Emulsifiers are another important ingredient within skin protection. They help to combine liquids that do not mix, such as water and oil, into an emulsion

Fall prevention

Safety harnesses

Safety harnesses consist of straps fastened around the body. These catch the person as they fall, transmit the resulting forces on to appropriate parts of the body and keep the body upright.

Fall prevention

Attachment devices

Attachment devices come in two basic designs: with a fixed and a moveable guide. On the fixed guide, the attachment device that moves with the user automatically locks and catches the user with the safety harness if they fall. The fixed guide restricts lateral movement. The attachment device with a moveable guide moves up and down the guide as the wearer moves. If the wearer falls, it locks automatically.

Fall prevention

Height security harnesses

Height safety devices automatically catch and brake persons if they fall. They permit free movement within the cable extension range.

Fall prevention

Connectors

Cables or straps with end connections are designated as connectors. Connecting elements connect the individual parts with a capture system. Fall dampers reduce impact forces acting on the person, the safety harness and the anchor device in the event of a fall.

Fall prevention

Anchor devices

Anchor devices are made of different parts with one or more attachment points. These create a fixed connection between the system and the building or structure.

Fall prevention

Tool protection

Fall prevention safety harness sets include all the parts which are required for basic equipment. These allow your employees to work safely on lifting platforms or roofs, for example. Additionally, the tools which your employees working at height are using should be prevented from falling so that people at ground level are not injured by falling objects. Special tool fall protection is available for this.

Protective and work clothing

T-Shirts

Foot protection

Safety low shoes

Safety shoes can be worn all year round, are comfortable to walk or stand in, and also protect your feet at work. They are “classics” when it comes to foot protection. They ultimately cover the entire range of protective requirements, and in turn, are approved in many different companies.

Foot protection

Safety sandals

Safety sandals stand out because they are highly breathable. This makes them especially well-suited to working indoors and in high temperatures outdoors.

Foot protection

Welder’s boots

Whether in industry, manufacturing trades or production, wearing special safety shoes is prescribed for almost all metalworking jobs by the applicable Berufsgenossenschaft (employers' liability insurance association). These are work shoes that must meet certain standards to protect the feet from injuries and danger when working.

Foot protection

Business safety shoes

For many people in management positions, a quick trip to the production hall or logistics area is a crucial component of day-to-day working life. A carefully assembled wardrobe including safety shoes should of course be a part of this. Our range includes a wide selection of business safety shoes which meet all the legal requirements, and also ensure a stylish appearance in every area.

Foot protection

Work shoes

Good work shoes are ergonomic. They have an insole with a footbed that relieves the feet when walking or standing. They fit the foot firmly, without pressing on it. This reduces the risk of occupational illness. Work shoes are the ideal footwear for working in areas without mechanical risks.

Foot protection

Safety boots

Boots of different protection classes with corresponding safety qualities are recommended, depending on the area of application. Boots of different protection classes with corresponding safety qualities are recommended, depending on the area of application. Alongside providing protection, it is also important that they are comfortable to wear.

SAFETY GLASSES WITH SIDE ARMS

Safety glasses with side arms protect against mechanical hazards, such as during precision mechanical work.

Eye protection

SAFETY GOGGLES

Safety goggles protect against eye injuries of both a physical and chemical nature, such as during dusty work like grinding or laboratory work.

Eye protection

WELDER’S GOGGLES

A dazzlingly bright light with strong UV radiation is produced during electrical welding work. Without adequate protection, there is a risk of burns to the conjunctiva and irreversible injury. Furthermore, depending on the welding technique, harmful substances can be released which can also get inside the eyes.

For this reason, welder’s goggles must meet strict requirements for eye protection. They must repel glare while ensuring excellent vision, protecting against UV light, offering scratch resistance and employing a suitable material to prevent burn-in of welding sparks.

Hand protection

MULTI-PURPOSE GLOVES

Multi-purpose gloves are characterised by their suitability for a wide range of applications in day-to-day work.

Hand protection

LEATHER GLOVES

In many manufacturing trades, leather gloves are the first choice for protective gloves that provide a high level of comfort for the wearer. Being a robust material, leather is not only resilient, but also soft and supple. These work glove qualities enable precise work, even when it comes to assembling small parts where sensitivity is required. Furthermore, leather gloves are suited to working in both cold environments and very hot ones.

Hand protection

CHEMICAL PROTECTIVE GLOVES

Anybody whose job involves handling chemicals must take special precautionary measures. Dangerous gases or vapours are ingested through the nose and mouth 60 per cent of the time. This means suitable respiratory protection is required. However, up to 30 per cent of chemicals enter the human organism through the skin or mucous membranes and can cause irreversible damage.

Hand protection

ELECTRICIAN’S GLOVES

Electrician’s gloves are special protective gloves that are furnished with an insulation layer to provide reliable protection against electric voltage. These can also be combined with an overglove, depending on the work application. This is especially important, as the effects of electricity on the body can cause significant harm, depending on the electrical resistance.

Head and face protection

Impact caps

In terms of their shape, bump caps are based on baseball caps. Due to their plastic insert, they offer light head protection, such as against stationary sharp-edged objects. They must not be used as a substitute for industrial safety helmets.

Eye protection

Prescription safety glasses

Safety glasses with an integrated reading area enable precise detailed work.

Hand protection

WELDER’S GLOVES

High temperatures and radiated heat arise during welding work. Special welder’s gloves are required to adequately protect the hands. They are considerably longer than other work gloves in order to offer the wrist and the lower arm protection as well. These gloves can also be combined with welder’s hand protection, which provides extra protection against heat and radiated heat.

Hand protection

CUT-RESISTANT GLOVES

Cut-resistant gloves enable the user to avoid injuries due to cuts from sharp-edged tools and working materials. Whether in assembly, metalworking or glass working, in the food or automotive industry, cut-resistant gloves significantly reduce the risk of injuries to the hands from cuts, without limiting the freedom of movement at work. overview of cut protection
