    Safety and Personal Protective Equipment Frequently Asked Questions

    What is PPE?

    ‘PPE’ is an acronym you will see across the painting and decorating industry. It stands for Personal Protective Equipment, and it refers to any item you wear to keep yourself safe from potential workplace hazards. In painting, this means creating a physical barrier between you and everything from chemical fumes to simple paint splashes. Using the correct PPE is a non-negotiable part of the process and protects you from both short-term injury and long-term health problems.

    The core types of PPE for painting and decorating are:

    1. Respiratory Protection (RPE): This is arguably the most important category, protecting your lungs from inhaling harmful substances. This includes basic Dust Masks for protection against non-toxic dust and more advanced Respirators with filters, which are essential for protecting against paint fumes, solvent vapours, and harmful isocyanates found in 2K paints.
    2. Eye Protection: This shields your eyes from liquid splashes, airborne dust, and overspray. Safety Goggles offer the best protection as they create a seal around your eyes, making them ideal for spraying or working under a ceiling. Safety Glasses are suitable for general protection from dust and debris.
    3. Skin & Body Protection: This prevents paint and chemicals from coming into contact with your skin, where they can cause irritation or be absorbed into the body. This includes Nitrile Gloves, which are resistant to solvents, and Coveralls, which keep your skin and clothes clean and free from contamination.

    What Safety Equipment & PPE is Essential for Painting?

    Whatever type of painting your doing, some overalls are absolutely essential. They will protect you from getting painting on your clothes during the process. If you're spray painting, some good quality gloves, goggles/eye wear and a mask is also a must have. With this full collection of paint safety equipment, you'll have all you need to paint safely.

    What's the Safest Type of Paint?

    The safest types of paint are water based systems, such as our water based wood coatings. These paints have a lot less volatile chemicals in their formula, making them a lot less hazardous to use. Although, with the right safety equipment and applied in the right way, most paint can be safe to use
