The Portwest PW_PR23 Detectable Wrap Safety Glasses are a specialized piece of personal protective equipment designed for environments where contamination control is as vital as eye safety. Featuring a clear, wraparound lens, these glasses provide an unobstructed field of vision while ensuring the eyes are shielded from lateral hazards. Their primary function is to serve industries such as food production and pharmaceuticals, where the detectability of foreign objects is a critical safety protocol.
Metal-Detectable Construction: The frames are engineered with materials that can be picked up by detection systems, ensuring that should the glasses be misplaced on a production line, they are identified and removed before reaching the consumer.
Wraparound Design: This ergonomic shape provides comprehensive coverage around the eye area, preventing dust and debris from entering via the sides and offering a wider peripheral view.
Clear Optical Lens: The transparent lens ensures maximum light transmission and clarity, allowing the wearer to perform detailed tasks without colour distortion or visual impairment.
Unisex Fit: Designed with a versatile frame geometry, these glasses provide a secure and comfortable fit for a wide range of face shapes and sizes.
Portwest has designed these glasses with a focus on both safety and comfort for long-shift wear. The lightweight material ensures that the glasses do not become a burden or cause pressure points on the bridge of the nose or behind the ears. Despite being lightweight, the frame is a substantial and sturdy piece of equipment, built to withstand the rigours of an industrial environment. The wraparound lens is manufactured to provide a high level of impact resistance, ensuring that your vision remains protected from unexpected hazards.
This item is sold as-is, without customisation. Safety eyewear is precision-engineered to meet specific safety standards regarding impact resistance and material integrity. Adding custom printing or branding could potentially compromise the structural strength of the frames or interfere with the specialized detectable properties that make this product essential for hygiene-sensitive environments. To ensure the performance of the product remains exactly as intended by the manufacturer, we provide these glasses in their original, tested form.
These glasses are the standard choice for staff working in food manufacturing, chemical processing, or pharmaceutical laboratories. They are particularly valuable in any facility where metal detection is used to maintain product purity. Beyond specialized hygiene roles, they serve as excellent general-purpose safety glasses for any professional requiring clear, reliable eye protection.
Since 1976, MyWorkwear has been at the forefront of providing high-quality safety solutions to businesses across the United Kingdom. Operating from our base in Telford, our decades of expertise allow us to curate a range of PPE that meets the exacting standards of modern industry. We understand that in your line of work, reliability is not optional, which is why we only supply equipment that we trust to perform.
For the best protection, ensure the glasses sit flush against your face. If you find they are slipping, it may be worth considering a neck cord to keep them secure during more active tasks. While these provide excellent wraparound protection, they are not designed to be worn over prescription eyewear; for that, we would recommend specific over-specs or prescription safety glasses.
To maintain the clarity of your lenses and the integrity of the frame, we recommend cleaning them daily. Use a dedicated lens cleaning solution and a microfibre cloth rather than your sleeve or a paper towel. This prevents the accumulation of fine scratches that can impair your vision and shorten the lifespan of the glasses.
When not in use, always store your safety glasses in a protective pouch or case. Leaving them exposed in a toolbox or on a workbench increases the risk of accidental damage or exposure to substances that could degrade the detectable material in the frame.
Avoid using harsh household detergents or solvents for cleaning. These chemicals can react with the lens coatings and the frame material, potentially making the plastic brittle and reducing the impact protection the glasses are designed to provide.
