Workwear & Safety at Discount Office
Practical, certified PPE for the people who actually have to wear it all day — Kiwi tradies, warehouse crews, food handlers, cleaners, lab techs and front-line teams. We stock gloves for every grip and hazard, hi-vis vests and jackets, safety glasses, ear protection, respirators, hard hats, first aid kits and traffic management gear. Most stock ships from our suppliers based in Auckland the same or next business day for most orders, with free delivery on orders over $30 NZ-wide.
Gloves — pick by hazard, not just price
Glove choice is the single most-asked question we get. Quick guide:
-
Disposable nitrile for food prep, cleaning and light hygiene tasks (browse disposables)
-
General handling (polyurethane or nitrile-dipped knit) for warehouse, dispatch and assembly (general handling)
-
Cut resistant for glass, sheet metal and blade work — sold in a range of protection levels so you can match the glove to how sharp the material is
-
Chemical (nitrile or PVC, full-length) for cleaning chemicals, solvents, fuels (chemical gloves)
-
Heat / cold / chain mesh for kitchens, cool-stores and meat-processing (heat, cold, chain mesh)
If you're not sure which to spec for a specific task, email us the job description and we'll come back with a recommendation.
First aid — what's actually required?
We offer workplace, vehicle, sports and remote first aid kits in sizes from lone-worker pouches up to 1–50 person wall-mounted cabinets. Once a kit is in service, top it back up from our plasters and bandages, antiseptics and module refills. If you need a kit specced for a particular site or vehicle fleet, email us the team size and main hazards and we'll suggest options.
