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 safety gloves requests in the area come from:
- Mines and quarries: heavy leather and impact gloves for rock handling, rail work and plant maintenance
- Electrical contractors and power utilities: insulating gloves rated for voltage plus leather over-gloves for electrical crews
- Building and civil contractors: coated and leather gloves for bricklaying, steel fixing, shuttering and general labour
- Warehouses, ports and transport: grippy coated gloves for loading, pallet handling and carton cutting
- Factories and workshops: cut-resistant gloves for sheet metal, glass and assembly, with coated grip for oily parts
- Municipalities, cleaning and security services: puncture- and cut-resistant gloves for refuse collection, sewer work and grounds teams
