Safety Goggles provide additional eye protection when compared to Safety Glasses. Through their design, Safety Goggles provide a more comprehensive seal around the eye and provide protection for both the eye and surrounding ocular area from dust, airborne particles, liquids, chemicals and vapours (model dependant). Safety Goggles are used across many industries including industrial, manufacturing, mining, construction, agriculture, healthcare, military, law enforcement and emergency services.
The risks and hazards that give rise to the need for Safety Goggles vary across industries. In dusty environments or when a task generates excessive airborne particles, Safety Goggles provide an effective protective measure for preventing particles entering the ocular region and causing eye irritation. Safety Goggles can also provide effective protection from chemical splashes and many Safety Goggles are approved for protection from chemical splashes. In some instances, eye protection is also required from chemical vapours generated from handling chemicals which certain Safety Goggles can provide. Full Face Respirators are generally the optimum choice when working with chemical vapours and gases.
Recently, Safety Goggles have also become a popular choice for healthcare workers that are exposed to liquid splashes, airborne droplets and especially for Covid-19 protection. Safety Goggles can also be manufactured from heat resistant materials that make them suitable for fire fighting. Fire Fighting Goggles are regularly used by fire fighters, volunteer bush fire brigades, emergency services, farmers & rural property owners.
All Safety Goggles supplied by Boost Safety & Workwear meet or exceed Safety Standards including Australian, European, US, Canadian and international standards. Please refer to the specifications table and the product data sheet (both on the product page) which outline the standards that the product complies with and has been certified under.
Safety Goggles come in a variety of different designs to cater for personal preferences and increased wearer comfort.
Safety Goggles can be supplied with different ventilation systems depending on their use. The chosen ventilation system is important as the ventilation assists to reduce the Safety Goggles fogging up and also provide a comfortable climate for the eye behind the Safety Goggles lens. We carry Safety Goggles with all types of ventilation systems including:
Due to the tough environments and tasks Safety Goggles are exposed to, Safety Goggles are regularly supplied with anti-scratch coatings, anti-fog coatings or both. The inclusion of these coating depends on the model selected and targeted application.
Anti-scratch coatings are applied to one or both sides of the Safety Goggles lenses to improve the scratch resistancy of the lens material. Key benefits include:
Anti-fog coatings are designed to assist Safety Goggles not fogging up particularly in hot, humid conditions or where other PPE is being worn such as a Disposable Face Mask. Anti-fog coatings can be applied to one or both sides of the lenses. Key benefits include:
Did you know, the better the sealing of the Safety Goggles around the eyes, the higher the level of protection against dust, airborne particles, liquids, chemicals and vapours!
Workers should regularly examine the condition of their Safety Goggles carefully. If the frame, rubber seal or lens is distorted, damaged or has a hole, the Safety Goggles can no longer protect them effectively and should be thrown out and replaced. Many Safety Goggles have removable lenses, meaning if the lens is worn, but the goggle body still ok, just the lens can be replaced. Check out our range of Safety Goggles Replacement Lenses.
