Protection gets bought last and used least. A range that acknowledges that sells better than one that ignores it.
Decorating is a wet trade with a lot of handling. The glove has to grip a wet roller pole and still let the wearer pick up a filling knife without taking it off.
That is why coated knit gloves dominate this trade rather than heavy gauntlets. The knit back breathes, the coated palm grips, and the wearer keeps them on.
Rolling a ceiling puts spray directly above the face, and sanding filler puts dust in the air for the rest of the day. Those are two different eye protection problems.
Open safety spectacles are comfortable and get worn, but they do not seal. A strapped goggle seals against dust and splash but fogs more easily. Most crews need both available.
| General work and low splash risk | Safety spectacles, worn all day |
|---|---|
| Ceiling rolling and spray | Sealed goggles with a head strap |
| Sanding and dust | Sealed goggles, ventilated frame |
| Bright outdoor work | Tinted lens spectacles |
Decorating itself is quiet. The trades working alongside it are not. Ear muffs get issued for the cutting, grinding and demolition that happens in the same space.
Because they are issued rather than chosen, colour matters more than it sounds. Four cup colours let a site separate staff, contractors and visitors without printing anything.
Colour coding is the cheapest site control there is. It costs nothing at order stage and saves an argument at the gate.
A protection block beside a decorating aisle does not need depth. It needs the four or five items that get consumed, in the colours that let a buyer code their site.
