PPE in Cape Town
Cape Town is the largest economy in the Western Cape, with the harbour, ship repair yards, oil services, food and beverage plants, clothing factories and a very large construction sector. Dock and warehouse crews need hi-vis clothing, boots and hard hats, while the film and hospitality industries buy uniforms and branded workwear. Hospitals, municipal departments and cleaning contractors order gloves, masks and aprons in volume. Winter brings cold, wet and windy weather that makes rain suits and jackets essential, while summer is dry and hot. The city has a deep supplier base of manufacturers, distributors, embroiderers and workwear shops across Montague Gardens, Epping and Parow.

Typical personal protective equipment requests in the area come from:
- Warehouses, ports and transport: safety shoes, reflective vests and jackets, gloves and cold-store clothing for warehouse and yard teams
- Building and civil contractors: hard hats, safety boots, reflective vests, gloves and harnesses for every new site and subcontractor crew
- Factories and workshops: safety shoes, overalls, cut-resistant gloves, glasses and ear plugs issued on a fixed schedule
- Hospitals, clinics and laboratories: examination gloves, gowns, surgical masks, respirators and face shields
- Municipalities, cleaning and security services: reflective vests and jackets, rain suits, gumboots and gloves for road, waste and cleaning crews
- Food and beverage processors: white gumboots, disposable aprons, hairnets, freezer jackets and food-safe gloves
