Required Protective Gear

GearLoft engineers solutions designed to mitigate the specific risks of this sector. Below is our recommended protective gear and usage protocol:

Kijina Dustcoats

Engineered with concealed buttons and elasticated cuffs to eliminate entanglement hazards.

Application / Usage

Worn over daily clothing to secure all loose fabrics. Must remain fully buttoned when operating rotary machinery or lathes.

Heat-Resistant Aprons

Heavyweight drill cotton and leather aprons for thermal protection.

Application / Usage

Tied securely at the waist and neck before approaching furnaces or welding stations to block slag and intense radiant heat.

Hearing Protection

Industrial-grade earmuffs designed for 12-hour shifts on the factory floor.

Application / Usage

Worn continuously in zones exceeding 85 decibels to prevent permanent noise-induced hearing loss.

Safety Boots

Steel-toe MK II boots with oil and heat-resistant PU soles.

Application / Usage

Laced tightly before entering the floor to prevent crush injuries from dropped heavy components and slip incidents on oily surfaces.

Heavy Duty Gumboots

Steel-toe PVC boots with deep lugs for chemical and mud resistance.

Application / Usage

Worn in wet-processing areas or when handling heavy industrial chemicals and sludges.

Protective Gloves

Heavy-duty leather, PVC, or cut-resistant Kevlar gloves.

Application / Usage

Worn to protect hands from sharp metal edges, thermal burns, and abrasive industrial materials.
