About Us 

Here at SKANWEAR we’re committed to delivering electrical safety personal protective equipment (PPE) that matches the demands of your job. Our innovative, high quality clothing items and accessories provide you with the protection you need to safeguard against the devastating effects of electric shock and arc flash.

Combining a passion for ensuring everyone potentially working with live electricity has access to the correct protection with decades operating in the sector, you know you can rely on each of our products. SKANWEAR was launched in 1989 and over the years our focus has shifted after identifying a gap in the market. We are now leaders in PPE, saving lives globally as a result. Our constant development led to the creation of the STRATA brand, bringing you durable, professional, and protected clothing built for environments where there is a risk of arc flash or fire. 

We support businesses too. We recognise the challenges of ensuring that all your employees are adequately protected at all times. Our management and e-ordering tool Safeline allows you to take full control of your PPE inventory and purchases. Giving you a platform to order items from 24 hours a day, our efficient team ensure that your staff quickly have supplies they need to carry out work safely.
