Workwear: Protection That Keeps Up With Farm Life
A farm throws a lot at you in a single day: dust in the feed store, noise at the mill, sharp edges in the workshop and wet floors in the shed. The right workwear and protective equipment will not make those things go away, but it does cut the risk noticeably. We have sorted the range by body area so you can go straight to whatever suits the job in front of you, from head protection down to your boots.
Protection by Body Area
For the head there are bump caps, an industrial safety helmet and light shed caps. Eye protection covers full-vision goggles and welding helmets with an auto-darkening lens. Against machine noise you will find ear defenders and earplugs, some with radio or Bluetooth. For dust there are respirators in classes FFP1 to FFP3 plus a half mask with replaceable filters. Hands are looked after by coated knitted, leather and chemical-resistant gloves, feet by work boots, rubber boots and knee pads.
Clothing for Shed and Workshop
Stable clothing holds overalls, washing aprons, sleeve protectors and disposable clothing. Milking and hoof-trimming aprons keep the wet off, and hooded disposable coveralls suit visitors and any job you would rather not carry around with you afterwards. Sitting in this category itself are the HeadFire 280 LED head torch with motion sensor for the evening round in the dark and a hoof trimmer’s apron with a leg cut-out. A hi-vis vest makes you visible on the yard entrance and out on the road.
Frequently Asked Questions
Where is the best place to start?
With whatever gets used every day: gloves, solid boots and ear protection already cover most of the work. Head, eye and respiratory protection follow as soon as you are grinding, welding or working in dust.
How do I find the right size?
Gloves, boots and overalls come in several sizes and the details sit with each product. Helmets, bump caps and ear defenders have adjustable headbands or straps, so one item fits across a wide range.
How do I look after the kit?
Aprons, overalls and caps can be rinsed or washed, and boots want a proper dry-out after use. Clean goggles and visors with clean water and a soft cloth so the lens stays clear.
Protective Kit for the Whole Farm
Anyone moving between shed, workshop and field needs the right kit for the job. Head protection covers bump caps, helmets and shed caps, while eye protection holds goggles and welding helmets. Ear protection deals with machine noise and respiratory protection with dust. Hand protection runs from thin knitted gloves to cut resistance, and foot protection brings boots and knee pads. Stable clothing holds overalls and aprons, and a hi-vis vest makes sure you are seen.
