About Sheq Safety
Two Decades of Industrial Excellence
Protecting South Africa’s workforce since 2004 through quality, integrity, and innovation.
Our Story
Sheq Safety’s story began in 2004, not in a boardroom, but in a modest garage built on a simple belief: the people who power South Africa’s industries deserve reliable protection they can trust.
What started as a small operation has grown into a respected national business supplying Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), workwear, and safety solutions to the mining, industrial, manufacturing, engineering, construction, and commercial sectors across South Africa and selected African markets.
Today, Sheq Safety stands as one of South Africa’s leading PPE and workwear specialists, combining industry expertise, strategic partnerships, accredited manufacturing, and innovative inventory management solutions to deliver safety without compromise.
“To deliver quality products at a fair price.”
— Sheq Safety Philosophy, Est. 2004
