This year’s Safety and Health Expo marks the launch of the ArcoPro Flame Retardant Clothing range; innovative heat and flame protection for high risk industrial sectors. Arco, the UK’s leading Safety Company, will also be showcasing world class products; including its state-of-the-art mobile confined space training unit, on stand M2450.
To demonstrate its commitment to keeping people safe at work, Arco has developed a new range of own brand garments that offer multi-norm protection. Developed to meet the highest level of heat and flame protection (including Category III of the European PPE Directive), all products in the new ArcoPro range have been tested in quality testing labs and then trialled in the field by customers to ensure that each product meets the highest standards of safety and comfort. The ArcoPro range is incorporated into a range of complementary products from world leading brands and includes base layers, mid layers, workwear, weather protection and chemical protection. The products in the range offer a choice of protection levels and have been designed to suit a wide range of budgets. As a result of a comprehensive testing programme covering all combinations of products, Arco experts can now offer advice on a t! otal solution for all types of high risk industrial needs.
Arco’s mobile confined space training unit, launched at last year’s Safety & Health Expo, incorporates the latest technologies to simulate a variety of industrial confined space working scenarios. The unit enables trainees to be immersed in a highly realistic learning experience with real-time monitoring and video recording allowing live instruction and observer learning outside the tunnel system. The unit is deployed at the customers’ site and enables Arco Training and Consultancy to deliver accredited training programmes including all levels of City and Guilds approved courses, non-accredited or bespoke programmes, as well as face fit and breathing apparatus training. Visitors will be able to see inside the tunnel network and witness live demonstrations throughout the show.
Recognising a demand for gloves that are not only excellent quality but that are also identifiable for the level of cut protection they offer, Arco has developed its inventive Cut Control System. The range of gloves is colour coded to illustrate different levels of cut protection and also numbered for ease of use and efficiency. Also on the stand will be Arco’s popular Comfort and Neoprene gloves ranges. The Comfort range incorporates ergonomic design, precision manufacture and cutting edge technology to offer wearers excellent levels of protection whilst being supremely comfortable. On the other hand, for workers who need high levels of protection against a variety of chemical and cut hazards, Arco’s physically tough Neoprene range offers the ideal solution. With Arco’s long standing experience of product innovation, wearers can trust that Arco will have the right hand protection solution ! for their needs.
A full range of footwear and workwear garments will also be on display; including the Trojan® Tradesman and Arco Essentials ranges and the Arco Internal Metguard Safety Boot made with innovative Poron® XRD foam.
