PPE in Kathu
Kathu is the service town for the Sishen iron ore and Kalahari manganese fields, and it has grown quickly around them. Open-pit mines, crushers, rail loading and heavy-vehicle workshops run around the clock in the Gamagara area, so orders are mostly for mine-standard boots, helmets, hi-vis clothing, safety glasses, ear protection and dust masks. Contractors for civil works, solar plants and logistics add steady volume. Summers regularly exceed 38 degrees and the red Kalahari dust is fine and abrasive, so ventilation and lens quality matter. Kathu has a small supply base of workwear shops and distributors, while bulk and branded orders are often quoted from Kimberley, Upington or Gauteng.

Typical dust masks requests in the area come from:
- Mines and quarries: FFP2 and FFP3 masks for drilling, dumping and crushing where respirable silica is present
- Electrical contractors and power utilities: masks for ash handling, insulation work and cleaning in boiler and turbine areas
- Building and civil contractors: masks for cutting concrete, sanding plaster, sweeping and demolition dust on site
- Warehouses, ports and transport: masks for warehouse cleaning, bulk loading and cement or fertiliser handling
- Factories and workshops: masks for grinding, sanding, powder handling and fabrication workshops on the floor
- Municipalities, cleaning and security services: masks for street sweeping, landfill, cement work and brush cutting teams
