In New Zealand’s industrial, utility, and construction sectors, safety equipment is more than a precaution—it’s a lifeline. From harnesses to arc flash suits, these tools protect workers in high-risk environments. But over time, even the most robust gear can degrade. That’s why regular safety equipment testing is essential.
Safety gear is exposed to UV light, chemicals, moisture, and general wear and tear. These factors can compromise its integrity, often in ways that aren’t visible to the naked eye. Without proper testing, equipment may fail when it’s needed most.
