Continuous improvement and innovation
In the company’s pursuit of solutions for workers in extreme climates, Workwear Group leveraged its close collaboration with railway customers to address specific challenges.
This partnership led to the development of a uniform using hybrid fabrics and design technologies, specifically created for the hot, humid conditions encountered trackside.
The relentless sun and heat from rail track materials poses significant risks to worker safety and wellbeing.
