The RS personal protection offering includes a selection of gloves, eyewear, respiratory and hearing protection

RS Components the global distributor for engineers, buyers and maintenance professionals will be at the Rustenburg Mining and Technical Exhibition (MTE) on 31 May 2018 at the Impala Rugby Club, exhibiting a range of Personal Protection Equipment (PPE).

The RS personal protection equipment range includes: products from 3M Peltor such as eyewear designed for maximum comfort, fit and clarity, so they stay on and you stay protected; ear protection, hearing defenders that are ideal for use in environments with moderate industrial noise, such as workshops and respirators with improved filter construction and a cool flow valve for comfort and easy breathing.

Specification of the correct PPE equipment should never be taken lightly. Application of the correct equipment for the job could be the difference between safe operation and life-changing injuries - one of the reasons why RS will be available at the MTE Rustenburg show is to showcase customers the various global brands that specialise in personal protection gear and site safety equipment.

In 2010, Rustenburg was reported as one of South Africa’s fastest growing cities. It is home to two of the world’s largest platinum mines as well as the world’s largest platinum refineries, Precious Metal Refiners (PMR). The area is highly dependent on the platinum mining industry which provides about 50% of direct local jobs.

Due to the ongoing increase in mining activity in Rustenburg, much focus has been placed on developing the city, in the past few years. This includes investments in training and education programmes. From 2011 to 2013, 25 000 students have enrolled in sponsored education programmes with contributions which amount to R 139.8 million from mining companies operating in the Rustenburg area. 

RS Components will also display the RS Pro range of personal protection equipment which is rigorously tested & backed by the RS Seal of Approval. This range is exclusively available from RS Components and offers great quality and performance at an affordable price.
