Was dubious about buying, a bag, of the beeswift mp1 gloves, as I was actually looking for an alternate brand, I've had gloves before that were all bundled together, where the rubber was too hard and the material like an old rope, the company sent them out really fast delivery, individually wrapped, premium gloves, really happy, top drawer, as these will be stored in the garage, no damp or spider issues, big thanks to George @ gloves & stuff.

Decent gloves at a reasonable price. Delivered within a good delivery window. These gloves have reasonable longevity in medium workloads.
Good company to buy from; just took a bit longer than expected (9 days)from order to being despatched for delivery. The response was quick when I emailed them with a query. Will definitely use again.
I've always had a good experience with this family run business, always able to ring and get any queries sorted. Quick delivery and products all as described on the website.
The process from order to delivery is smooth and stress free. I would definitely recommend them.
What an amazing company. I bought safety shoes from them and could not fault them with anything. Communication from the seller was spot on. Kept me updated on delivery times and delivery was super quick as well, not to mention that they had the best price out there. These shoes are so comfy :). Thank you very much, I would happily use them again and highly recommend to anyone. I am glad I did not cancel my order because of the previous bad reviews.
Got my product shipped to ireland and was impressed with how quick it arrived.
Price was still cheaper even after I paid the customs fee. Would recommend and I will be using again 🤝
A pleasure to do business with George, Paul and the team. Have been using them for years and will continue to do so. Great customer service, speedy shipping and an extensive range of products.
Ordered some safety trainers as they offered the fastest delivery and lowest price. My order was a day late but this was due to a supply chain issue with the manufacturers. George kept me up to date and they still arrived before other company’s expected delivery date. The quality of the trainers are amazing and I will be definitely using this company again for my future supply’s.

6 Metres of Protection When It Matters Most
The Portwest FP42 is a 6-metre retractable fall arrest block built for working at height. This isn't just a safety device – it's the difference between a close call and a safe day on site. The wire rope lifeline extends smoothly as you move, then locks instantly if you fall, arresting you after only a short distance.
Key Features:
-
Inertia Brake System: Sophisticated mechanism allows free movement during normal work but locks instantly during a fall. Arrests you quickly to minimise fall distance and impact forces.
-
Wire Rope Lifeline: Durable wire rope stored on a spring-based reel inside the protective housing. Automatically retracts and extends to follow your movements without getting in the way.
-
Shock Absorbing: Built-in shock absorption reduces impact forces during fall arrest. Protects your body from the sudden stop.
-
140kg Load Rating: Rated for users up to 140kg, accommodating workers with tools and equipment. Tested to handle real-world conditions.
-
Swivel Snap Hook: Double safety lock prevents accidental opening. Fall indicator shows if the device has been involved in a fall and needs replacing. Swivel design prevents tangling.
-
ABS Protective Housing: Tough plastic shell protects the internal mechanism from impacts and weather. Alloy steel heat-treated components inside for long-term reliability.
-
Quick Installation: Easy to set up and use. Compatible with all Portwest harnesses and connectors for a complete fall protection system.
-
10 Year Shelf Life: Long service life from manufacturing date. Certified to EN 360:2002 and EN 362:2004 A standards.
The Portwest FP42 gives you freedom to work at height with confidence. Whether you're on scaffolding, working from platforms, or tackling maintenance tasks above ground, this retractable block keeps you protected. Order yours now and work safer tomorrow.
