Buyer's Guide

How do I find my product?
There are two ways to find the item you are looking for. 1) Browse through the stores categories. 2) Use the search tool to find the item using keywords or part numbers.

Do all your products comply with the relevant Australian Standards?
Yes, where there is an Australian Standard applicable, these will have been tested and marked on individual products. When it comes to safety, there should be no compromise and we want to sell products knowing that they will withstand the environment for which they were manufactured.

What if I find a cheaper item elsewhere?
We monitor competitors regularly, and if we can get a better deal from our Suppliers, we can pass it on to you. Occasionally some ‘specials’ advertised by our competitors are below cost, so businesses are losing money on some products with the hope of recouping it on other more expensive items you buy at the same time. We strive to have great pricing on our products all the time, not just when there’s a sale on.

I would like to purchase an item not on your website. Can you add them to the site for us?
If you can't find a product online, contact us, to obtain a quote. Our website features the common PPE Safety equipment available. We work with Clients using specialised equipment which we supply directly. Let us work for you.

Our website lists a range of products which we will always have stock to ensure that we can ship to our customers quickly. We are always adding new items to the website. If you need an item which we don’t have listed, contact us, so we can discuss your requirements and get the items you need.

Keep up to date with all the newly added products, specials and promotions by subscribing to our newsletter, following our blog or liking our Facebook page.

Please contact us so we can work with you to resolve the issue.
