Waste and PPE managementLeave a comment

What is PPE?

The acronym PPE stands for "Personal Protective Equipment" and includes a large number of products designed to protect workers and site personnel during the performance of their duties. The most commonly used and frequently used PPE are:

• Helmets for construction sites;
• Safety shoes;
• Safety glasses;
• Respiratory and protective masks;
• Hearing protection such as earplugs;
• Work gloves;
• High-visibility protective clothing, clothing adapted to areas at risk of explosion (ATEX) or fire uniforms;

This equipment is mandatory for safety and well-being measures during a risky intervention or activity. Many employees are likely to work in a hazardous area. This is why it is necessary to use specific personal protective equipment.

The management of PPE is an essential factor for the health of professionals.

Personal protective equipment allows to protect professionals for specific risks. The most common risks are dermal and respiratory exposure to a biological or chemical agent, exposure to high heat, radiation, noise, or the risks of electrocution, shock or crushing related to hazardous work.

With the aim of managing protective equipment in the best possible way, Proteclight offers you distributors of personal protective equipment from the Skipper range, in order to store and make available for self-service various equipment necessary for the protection and safety of others. These products allow a simple, quick, ergonomic and hygienic storage and commissioning of protective equipment for professionals.

The various products offered by Proteclight: for equipment management, safety and protection for all.

Our Proteclight online site offers a wide range of support and distributors to manage the distribution and recycling of personal protective equipment.

The protective equipment distributor: This distributor of safety equipment allows a quick and easy storage, management and distribution of safety equipment. Small in size, it allows the storage of a significant number of small safety equipment such as earplugs, protective masks or goggles that protect against rays, dust and projectiles. This PPE dispenser is transparent. It therefore allows you to quickly view the equipment stored and the quantity in order to have a regularly updated stock. This PPE dispenser is practical because it can be attached to many surfaces such as walls with a suitable fastening system, a smooth and glazed surface or a post from the Skipper range, which is perfectly suited for this type of product. The Skipper range pole allows a total of four PPE dispenser slots to be grouped together, with the aim of concentrating personal protective equipment within the same perimeter.

The holder for waste bags and user PPE: After using certain protective equipment, their effectiveness is no longer optimal. Often single-use, some equipment such as respiratory protection masks or earplugs can only be used once and some equipment is easily damaged. This is why the management of this waste is important. To remedy this, Proteclight offers you a waste sorting solution with a waste bag holder from the same range as the PPE dispenser. With a capacity of 100L, this waste bag holder for sorting waste allows you to store a large amount of obsolete protective equipment. This holder is very practical and often used in order not to mix new and used protective equipment. This product is, like the equipment dispenser, fixable on a large number of supports thanks to a fixing system similar to that of the PPE product dispenser, making it possible to concentrate the place of equipment distribution and waste collection in the same area, thus making the life of professionals faster and more efficient regarding protection needs.
