CWS Workwear launches collection without PFAS

(CONNECT) At the start of November, CWS Workwear will be heading to the A+A 2025 trade fair in Düsseldorf with its quartet of new multi-standard collections, as the international workwear manufacturer from Dreieich in Germany writes in a press release. In specific terms, the company, which has a branch in Wil in the Swiss canton of St.Gallen, will be showcasing its new Safety Multinorm collections in Standard, Advanced and Premium versions, as well as the Safety Nomex Light collection. CWS Workwear will also be presenting two new complementary special solutions at the international trade fair for occupational health and safety: the Safety Welding 1 Advanced collection and the Safety HighVis Standard high-visibility clothing.

The Standard, Advanced and Premium collections are designed with workers who are exposed to various hazards in mind. “Our new Multinorm collections are available through our reliable rental service. These garments help our customers in protecting their employees consistently without having to change clothes as they move between different work areas”, as Frederik Vereecke, Director Product Development & Innovation at CWS Workwear, explains in the press release. The company is faced with increased demand for flexible PPE solutions, particularly in sectors such as the chemicals industry, energy supply, e-mobility and renewable energies.

With its new multi-standard Safety Nomex Light collection, CWS Workwear is demonstrating its commitment to sustainability. The collection is entirely free of PFAS, colloquially known as “forever chemicals”. Furthermore, the PPE, specially developed for the requirements of the chemical, oil, and gas industries, is made from over 50 percent bio-based materials. A local supply chain system in the EMEA region aims to further reduce the overall environmental impact. ce/hs
