Product Overview
The PW32 Wrap Around Safety Glasses represent a masterclass in functional simplicity, earning their status as a global best-seller through a design that prioritises both protection and wearer comfort. These spectacles are engineered to provide a secure fit across a diverse range of face shapes, ensuring that eye safety is never compromised by poor ergonomics. The minimalist black frame houses a clear, wide-view lens, offering a professional appearance suitable for any industrial or commercial setting.
Key Features
- Ultra-light construction: The exceptionally low weight of these glasses reduces pressure on the bridge of the nose and behind the ears, allowing for extended wear without the discomfort or headaches often associated with heavier safety gear.
- Flexible and resilient arms: Designed to be virtually indestructible, the arms can withstand the rigours of a busy workshop or construction site, providing long-term value and reliability.
- One-piece contour lens: The wrap-around design offers an uninterrupted field of vision and superior lateral protection against flying debris and particles.
- Moulded nose-bridge: This integrated feature ensures a stable, universal fit for all face shapes, preventing the glasses from slipping during active movement.
Design & Performance
Constructed from high-grade polycarbonate, these safety glasses are built to endure. Polycarbonate is the material of choice for eye protection due to its inherent impact resistance and optical clarity. The one-piece lens design is not merely aesthetic; it removes the need for a separate frame that could obscure peripheral vision, which is a critical safety consideration in busy environments such as warehouses or mechanical bays.
The flexible arms are a standout performance feature. Unlike rigid plastics that may snap under tension, these arms can flex and return to their original shape, making them ideal for workers who frequently put on and take off their headwear or move between different tasks. The unisex design ensures a consistent safety standard across your entire workforce.
Why No Customisation?
We provide these safety glasses as-is to ensure your personal protective equipment (PPE) remains fully compliant with safety standards. Applying embroidery or heat-transfer prints to the arms or lenses could potentially compromise the structural integrity of the polycarbonate or obscure the wearer's vision. To maintain the certified level of protection these glasses offer, they are sold without additional branding.
Use Cases
These versatile spectacles are essential for professionals across a wide variety of sectors. They are particularly suited for those in construction, carpentry, and plumbing, where airborne debris is a constant risk. They are also highly effective for mechanics, electricians, and tree surgeons. Given their chemical-resistant polycarbonate build, they are a reliable choice for chemical handling and laboratory environments, as well as specialised roles in aviation and welding support.
Why MyWorkwear
MyWorkwear has been a trusted name in the industry since 1976. Operating from our specialised facility in Telford, we bring decades of expertise to every product we supply. We understand that in technical environments, the quality of your gear is non-negotiable, which is why we only stock proven, high-performance items like the PW32 series.
Practical Advice
When fitting your safety glasses, ensure the moulded bridge sits comfortably on the nose and the arms are tucked securely behind the ears. The wrap-around design should sit close to the face to minimise gaps where particles could enter. If you are working in environments with high levels of dust, consider pairing these with a compatible dust mask; the slim profile of the PW32 ensures it will not interfere with other facial PPE.
Caring for your product
To maintain the optical clarity and impact resistance of your polycarbonate glasses, it is vital to follow a careful cleaning regime. Avoid using abrasive cloths or industrial solvents, as these will cause micro-scratches that degrade visibility over time.
We recommend rinsing the lenses with clean, lukewarm water to remove any loose grit before wiping. If necessary, use a mild domestic detergent. Avoid the use of bleach or harsh chemical cleaners, as these can react with the polycarbonate, causing it to become brittle and prone to cracking under impact.
Dry the spectacles using a soft, clean microfibre cloth. Never use paper towels or clothing, which can contain wood fibres that scratch the lens surface. Finally, never expose the glasses to high heat sources, such as irons or direct heaters, as extreme temperatures will warp the frame and ruin the protective qualities of the lens.
