Designed to deliver a one-stop-shop solution for safety gear, the operation will provide customers with more than 25,000 products including personal protective equipment, workwear and site safety apparatus suitable for a range of industries including mining, construction, manufacturing, transport and warehousing.

“The gap we saw in the market, combined with an increase in demand from our customers for a single source solution for all their PPE and workwear, led us to launch Staples safety solutions,” Staples Australia and New Zealand head of facility solutions Joe Taylor said.

“Our goal is to ensure that our customers continue to have access to the most up-to-date and innovative safety products at cost-effective prices and with fast delivery.”

With 22 warehousing and distribution points nationwide, Staples offers next-day delivery for metro regions on all orders.

In addition, the company is able to provide onsite vending machines with keycard entry, ensuring staff have access to a range of safety items at short notice, 24/7.

Each vending machine has an inventory management system which tracks usage, with stock controlled via auto-replenish levels set by the customer.

“Our team of safety specialists can help ensure that there is product consolidation across an organisation and that they’re only ordering necessary equipment and clothing, reducing overhead costs and excess deliveries,” Taylor explained.

“We are currently working on some exciting improvements to our online ordering platform.

“New functionality will enable them to customise their uniforms with logos and associated embroidery – ensuring a faster turnaround time.”

With a focus on quality products designed to last, the company confirmed that all equipment and workwear stocked across the Staples safety solutions range meets Australian or equivalent global standards.

To support the launch of Staples safety solutions, a catalogue has been released showcasing a selection of products available for industry.
