Workwear & PPE Lockers

FAQs

• Where to buy PPE lockers?

  You can buy PPE lockers from the SMI shop, where we provide a full workwear locker service for businesses like yours.

• How do you store PPE correctly?

  To store PPE correctly, make sure all equipment has been cleaned and dried before putting it away. 

  It’s also best to make sure your equipment is protected from these hazards: 

  • Humidity
  • Direct sunlight
  • Poor ventilation

  Storing workwear and equipment in a PPE locker prevents exposure to these risks. 

• What PPE should be stored in a locker?

  Any PPE you’ve invested in can be stored in a locker. 

  At SMI, we recommend using workwear PPE lockers to store the following: 

  • Hi-vis clothing
  • Respirators and half masks
  • Hearing protection such as ear defenders
  • Head protection, like safety helmets and bump caps
  • Eye and face protection, like safety goggles and face shields
• What’s the difference between a PPE locker and a workwear locker?

  PPE storage lockers are designed for storing specialist protective equipment.

  Workwear lockers are designed for storing general workwear and equipment.
