While comfort is key, safety is the most important factor when preparing for cold weather working. Below are some essential winter workwear items for cold and / or wet conditions to help keep you safe:
Headwear
Most construction sites will have rules in place that mean you are required to wear a hard hat at all times, however, in this cold weather, it's not enough to keep your head warm. That's why we have a range of head protection gear that not only keeps you safe from objects falling but also from the cold weather. To see our full range of headgear, click here, where you can find a range of hard hats and thermal liners.
Gloves
No one wants freezing cold hands, particularly those using tools and machinery outside. The cold can be tough on your hands, making them numb and prone to cramping. We have a wide range of gloves that provide protection from the weather but also from damage that machinery can cause. We also supply hand warming packs that will help you regain some warmth after or during working outside. See our full range of work gloves here.
Coats and jackets
When the cold hits your torso it can really take the wind out of you. Cold weather can cause a tight chest and make you prone to kidney and bladder infections. That's why it's incredibly important to wear the right winter workwear to keep you safe. We have a great selection of clothing that should help. From thermals to jackets, we can help make sure you're protected from the cold and seen easily so you can keep safe. To see our full range of winter workwear, click here.
