For safety officers & procurement teams

If you need help interpreting a regulation or comparing fabric specs for a tender, email us with “Compliance query” in the subject line. We can often point you to the relevant SANS clause or suggest a test method.

For manufacturers & brands

We accept review samples for our field tests. Send a description of the garment, its intended use, and any test reports. We prioritise items that are relevant to the South African market.
