Collection Description
Commercial Workwear & Safety Equipment (PPE)
Workplace Health and Safety (WHS) compliance requires equipment that meets strict Australian Standards. At Freshway Supplies, we distribute certified Work & Safety Gear tailored for trade, construction, and commercial cleaning professionals. We help businesses source compliant PPE with reliable stock availability and fast dispatch across Australia.
How to Choose PPE for Your Workplace
Selecting the correct personal protective equipment comes down to matching specific site hazards with the right safety standards. Always review your site's risk assessment first. Look for SRC-rated soles if working on wet or oily surfaces, Class 5 hearing protection for heavy machinery operation, and EN 388 rated gloves for verifiable cut and abrasion resistance.
We stock proven safety brands including DeWalt, Stanley, and Uvex. Whether you are outfitting a small cleaning team or managing procurement for a national logistics network, we provide straightforward ordering, competitive trade pricing, and efficient supply chain solutions.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does an EN 388 rating mean on work gloves?
The EN 388 standard measures a glove's protection against mechanical risks. It tests four key areas: Abrasion, Cut, Tear, and Puncture resistance. When buying gloves for construction or heavy cleaning, checking this rating ensures the material is suitable for the specific hazards of your site.
What is AS/NZS 4602.1 compliance for High-Vis apparel?
AS/NZS 4602.1 is the Australian Standard for high-visibility safety garments. It classifies clothing into 'Day Only' (fluorescent materials), 'Night Only' (retroreflective tape), or 'Day/Night' (D/N) compliant. Logistics and traffic management sites strictly require D/N compliant gear.
What does an SRC slip-resistance rating mean on safety boots?
An SRC rating is the highest slip resistance standard for safety footwear under AS/NZS 2210.3. It confirms the boot has passed testing on both ceramic tiles with soap and steel floors with glycerol, making them ideal for wet commercial environments and kitchens.
Do your safety glasses comply with Australian Standards?
Yes. The safety eyewear we supply, including models from Uvex and DeWalt, complies with AS/NZS 1337.1 standards for medium impact protection. We also stock variants with specific anti-fog coatings for humid environments.
How do I choose the correct hearing protection class?
Hearing protection is categorized by its SLC80 rating (Sound Level Conversion). For standard industrial noise, a Class 4 plug may suffice. For heavy machinery, drilling, or manufacturing environments, you generally require Class 5 (SLC80 26dB or higher) earmuffs or earplugs.
What are anti-static (ESD) safety boots?
Anti-static footwear prevents the build-up of static electrical charges in the human body by dissipating them to the ground. This is crucial in environments dealing with flammable chemicals, gases, or sensitive electronic components to prevent sparks.
How is the waterproof rating of winter workwear measured?
Waterproof garments are often measured by their hydrostatic head rating (mm H2O). A basic water-resistant jacket may have a 1,500mm rating, while heavy-duty winter workwear designed for prolonged rain exposure will typically feature a 5,000mm to 10,000mm+ rating.
What is the difference between disposable and reusable earplugs?
Selection depends on hygiene and workflow:
- Disposable Foam Plugs: Hygienic and cost-effective for single-shift use or site visitors.
- Reusable/Banded Plugs: Made from washable materials and attached to a band. Practical for supervisors who need to frequently remove and insert their hearing protection throughout the day.
Do you supply inclusive sizing for workwear?
Yes. We stock a comprehensive range of protective clothing and safety footwear designed to provide a compliant and comfortable fit for both men and women across various trades.
Can I request bulk B2B pricing for PPE procurement?
Yes. Freshway Supplies provides structured trade pricing and volume discounts for facility managers, construction firms, and commercial cleaning contractors managing ongoing PPE and workwear requirements.
Are Safety Data Sheets (SDS) required for PPE?
Safety Data Sheets are generally required for chemical products rather than physical PPE. However, all our safety equipment comes with the manufacturer's technical specifications detailing compliance ratings (e.g., AS/NZS 2210.3 for footwear) for your WHS records.
What are your delivery timeframes for safety equipment?
For metropolitan areas, standard delivery typically takes 1 to 3 business days. We also offer a Click & Collect service from our Arncliffe warehouse in Sydney for urgent, same-day procurement.
