The Uniform as Life Support System
In Peruvian mining, operating from tunnels to 4000 m.a.s.l., workwear faces unique challenges.
It is not just covering the body, it is protecting life.
According to mining safety regulations in Peru (Occupational Health and Safety Regulation), a high-level mining uniform must guarantee:
- Absolute Visibility with engineering grade reflective tapes
- Thermal Protection against drastic temperature changes
- Chemical Resistance to corrosive substances
Safety begins with what we wear.
Technical Specifications and Regulations
Regulatory compliance is the basis.
Every garment must respond to industrial safety standards in force in Peru.
Critical Characteristics:
- High Visibility: 2-inch tapes, standard distribution (cross on back).
- Flame Retardant Fabrics: For areas with electric arc or fire risk.
- UV Protection: Certified for open-pit operations.
- Safety Seams: High tenacity thread that does not give way.
There is no "one size fits all" in mining safety.
Standardization and Camp Management
In projects with thousands of collaborators, uniform logistics is a challenge.
A mining provider not only sews, they manage.
- Real Sizes: Pattern making adapted to the Peruvian somatotype.
- Scheduled Replenishment: Safety stocks to avoid shortages.
- Clear Identification: Embroidery and tapes distinguishing ranks and areas.
Camp efficiency also depends on having personnel correctly equipped on time.
