Why Portwest Dominates the Global Safety Market
Established in 1904, Portwest has evolved from a small Irish family business into the world’s fastest-growing workwear company, operating across 130+ countries with dedicated facilities in Kentucky, Ireland, and global distribution networks. This remarkable growth stems from an unwavering commitment to what the company calls “peak protection”—a philosophy centered on producing the world’s most trusted protective wear through continuous innovation in safety technologies.
The Portwest USA catalog represents the culmination of 117 years of expertise, featuring over 1,400 products across 10 specialized ranges. From high-visibility apparel meeting ANSI/ISEA standards to advanced flame-resistant clothing protecting against arc flash and flash fire hazards, Portwest delivers comprehensive protection for every hazardous work environment. Their 800+ page catalog, available in 28 languages, includes more than 250 groundbreaking new styles, ensuring American workers access the latest advancements in safety engineering.
What distinguishes Portwest USA offerings is the company’s vertical integration—they design, manufacture, and distribute their entire product line through four ultra-modern production facilities. This control ensures consistent quality across high-visibility jackets, safety footwear, protective gloves, hard hats, and specialized PPE for industries ranging from oil and gas to electrical utilities and general construction.
