Protect Your Noggin: A Tradie's Guide to Head Protection
On any Aussie job site, your most valuable asset is what sits on your shoulders. Protecting your head from impacts, falling objects, and electrical hazards is an absolute no-brainer. A compliant, comfortable, and properly fitted piece of head protection is the most important piece of PPE you'll wear all day long.
At SCHNAP, our wide range of head protection is designed to keep you safe and comfortable, with a tough, certified solution for every tradie and any site condition.
The Right Protection for the Hazard
Not all headwear is created equal. Choosing the right level of protection for the task at hand is critical.
- Hard Hats (The Site Essential):
The non-negotiable for any construction, civil, or industrial site. A hard hat is specifically designed and tested to protect you from falling objects and serious impacts. We stock a huge range of colours and harness options, including:
- Vented Hard Hats: The popular choice for our hot climate, allowing air to circulate and keep your head cooler.
- Non-Vented Hard Hats: Required for certain electrical applications and for providing protection from liquid splashes.
- Bump Caps: For low-risk areas where there is no danger of falling objects. A bump cap is perfect for working in tight spaces like roof cavities, under vehicles, or in workshops where the main hazard is bumping or scraping your head.
Ultimate Electrical Safety: Arc Flash Kits
For sparkies working on or near live, high-energy switchboards, a standard hard hat offers zero protection from an arc flash.
- Arc Flash Protection Kits: An arc flash is a catastrophic electrical explosion. Our certified arc flash kits, rated up to HRC3, include a specialised hard hat, visor, and hood assembly designed to protect you from the intense thermal energy of the blast. This is life-saving equipment.
All-Day Comfort Accessories
A hard hat only works if you keep it on. Our range of handy add-ons makes all-day wear much more comfortable.
- Winter Liners: Beat the winter chill on those early morning starts with a warm liner.
- Snap Brims: Add a full brim for 360-degree sun protection for your face, ears, and neck.
- Chin Straps & Sweatbands: Ensure a secure fit when you're looking up or working in windy conditions, and keep the sweat out of your eyes on a hot day.
Built to Tough Aussie Standards
All our hard hats are built tough to meet or exceed the strict requirements of Australian Standard AS/NZS 1801, ensuring you're always wearing certified, reliable protection.
