PPE for the catering industry covers a wide range of different items. Apart from general distributors, I am not aware of any one manufacturer who covers all aspects. It would help if you could indicate what types of protection you require.

Martin,

Whilst you say that ARCO is limited, for the type of tasks you describe there is PPE in the current catalogue that would suit.

Other suppliers may (and will) do different models but they will effectively be the same product.

Whilst employed in the food industry I found that most specialist catering supply companies could not match the ARCO range.

Please contact me direct if you require any further assistance.

Steve
