SMI, a leading single source supplier to Britain's workforce, is pleased to announce the acquisition of Contego, a well-established stockist, supplier, and distributor of Protective Workwear and Equipment.

Picture this: It’s an early morning on Albert Road, Southsea. The sun is barely up, but inside The Lifehouse, a local charity supporting homelessness, the kitchen is already bustling. The scent of fresh coffee and warm toast fills the air as volunteers prepare hot breakfasts for those who need it most.

For many, this is more than just a meal. It’s a moment of comfort, a break from the cold, and a reminder that they’re not alone.

But The Lifehouse is so much more than a food kitchen. It’s a space where people can warm up, recharge, and find support. Whether that’s through a meal, guidance on next steps, or simply a friendly conversation.

A hydrostatic head rating is a measure of how waterproof a certain fabric is; this indicates the amount of pressure the material can withstand before it starts to leak through.

At SMI, we pride ourselves on offering a diverse range of Workwear and PPE for women - no matter the sector, we deliver the right product for the task at hand.
Properly fitted workwear for women not only allows your taskforce to feel confident and professional in their roles – it is pivotal in preventing injuries alongside promoting gender equality and removing the stigma of women in male dominated industries.
