How can you manage your PPE to support your strategy to reduce the environmental impact your business has and deliver your commitments ?
We have put together some ideas which are immediately deliverable with positive input and actions
Biotech nitrile disposable gloves – replace your disposable gloves with the Biotech product. An immediate impact on landfill through science
BioTouch contains a biodegradable technology that kickstarts a biodegradation
process only when discarded in an active landfill environment. BioTouch is more
environmentally friendly with a much faster natural breakdown compared to
regular nitrile.
The ASTM long term testing is in place to verify the extent of biodegradation. This
test imitates landfill environments by limiting oxygen, light, heat, and moisture
and imitates high pressure. The results of this test showed that the compounds in
BioTouch result in 90% biodegradation in just 490 days compared to regular
nitrile, which can take over 100 years.
Workwear has been developed using recycled PET (plastic) and fibre technology. High Visibility garments are also now available using the same principles

It is the only eco fibre with U-Trust verification certifying that the requirements for recycled content have been met.

It is difficult to know what to do to help and support the people and nation of the Ukraine. What we want to do is not possible or probably legal…..
There is a huge need for clothing and footwear as the people of Ukraine in many instances only have what they are wearing.
A consignment of footwear and clothing has been sent from our warehouse and we are shipping some bottled water providing the logistics support are happy to carry it(due to weight)
Having watched the inspirational concert shown on ITV on 29th March 2022,we have been moved to highlight what we have done and to encourage all our company stakeholders to identify what they can do and to take action….
God bless the Ukrainian people
On 6 April 2022 the Personal Protective Equipment at Work (Amendment) Regulations 2022 (PPER 2022) come into force and amend the 1992 Regulations (PPER 1992).
They extend employers’ and employees’ duties regarding personal protective equipment (PPE)
Under PPER 2022, the types of duties and responsibilities on employers and employees under PPER 1992 will remain unchanged but will extend to limb (b) workers, they have a more casual employment relationship and work under a contract for service – they do not currently come under the scope of PPER 1992, but do under the changes defined in PPER 2022.
If PPE is required, employers must ensure their workers have sufficient information, instruction and training on the use of PPE.
A limb (b) worker will have the duty to use the PPE in accordance with their training and instruction, and ensure it is returned to the storage area provided by their employer.
PPER 1992 places a duty on every employer in Great Britain to ensure that suitable PPE is provided to ‘employees’ who may be exposed to a risk to their health or safety while at work.
PPER 2022 extends this duty to limb (b) workers and comes into force on 6 April 2022. Employers need to carefully consider whether the change to UK law apply to them and their workforce and make the necessary preparations to comply.
If a risk assessment indicates that a limb (b) worker requires PPE to carry out their work activities, the employer must carry out a PPE suitability assessment and provide the PPE free of charge as they do for employees.
The employer will be responsible for the maintenance, storage and replacement of any PPE they provide. As a worker, you will be required to use the PPE properly following training and instruction from your employer. If the PPE you provide is lost or becomes defective, you should report that to your employer.
