Police

Safety on the frontline

Keeping officers safe and performing at their best.

We design, develop and test fabrics for police riot suits that tick every box.

We supply fabric for police riot suits in collaboration with Yaffy, our garment partners in the police market. Yaffy are a leading supplier of outerwear and technical clothing to the emergency services and provide products to all UK police forces. Together, Hainsworth and Yaffy work to provide police PPE that delivers quality, comfort and above all, protection.

Standards are vital to ensure that all PPE meets minimum safety requirements and effectively protects the wearer. Hainsworth helped to form some of the world’s earliest standards bodies, and our people sit on industry committees alongside fellow experts to this day.

As manufacturers, it is our responsibility to ensure that our fabrics perform to the highest possible level and meet all requirements for the end user.

We actively listen to frontline officers in order to understand their needs and the demands of their job, and we incorporate their feedback into the development of new PPE standards.

Our police PPE fabrics meet all relevant industry standards including:

  • BS 7971-10 – Protective clothing and equipment for use in violent situations and in training – Coveralls
