An Overview of Hazchem
Hazchem Safety are suppliers of Technical Workwear, PPE & ADR Equipment. Originally founded in 1978 by John Piddington, Hazchem came to the fore after the new Dangerous Goods Regulations were introduced, supplying ADR Signage to transporters of dangerous goods and the term Hazchem has become an industry recognised term for ADR signage. Today, our industry knowledge, insight and expertise is unsurpassed.
Since then, Hazchem expanded the range to include technical workwear and PPE and launched our range of ORKA® Technical Workwear – a range of flame retardant and hi-vis workwear designed for the Offshore Oil & Gas Industries – in 1991, where the original ORKA® Magnus Coverall quickly became a best seller and an industry benchmark.
Our second range of premium, inherent, flame resistant and anti-static workwear, HAZTEC®, was introduced in 2008 following an increased demand in the fuel distribution industry for comfortable and stylish yet compliant and well-specified technical workwear.
Hazchem have experienced rapid growth in the last decade, and now have several offices in the UK, and two large, strategically located distribution sites and offices in Aberdeen and Buckingham.
