Leading workwear manufacturer Ballyclare has been shortlisted to receive safety award. The awards, organised by the British Safety Industry Federation, recognise achievements in improving occupational health and safety, and cover customer service, safety excellence and product innovation. Ballyclare has been shortlisted for product innovation. 

 

"Our entry centres on three garment designs which are genuinely innovative in their concept, design and performance - a hi vis waterproof jacket, hi vis waterproof overtrouser and hi vis waterproof salopette," explains Ballyclare Sales and Marketing director, Roger Foster. 

 

These designs offer true multi-hazard protection for workers in industries such as rail, power and utilities, and have weatherproof, anti-static and highly breathable performance, the company said. They also offer outstanding arc-protection and flame resistance which dramatically improve the degree of safety and protection, according to the company.  (SV)
