Hand and body protection in Malaysia: gloves, workwear and safety shoes
Gloves, protective clothing, high visibility wear, hearing protection and safety footwear for the whole crew.
TopBorneo supplies hand and body protection across Malaysia: work gloves, coveralls, aprons, high visibility vests and hearing protection.
These go on the same quote as the helmets, harnesses and gas detectors, so one purchase order covers the shift. Safety shoes are supplied on request as part of a larger order for a site. Gloves and workwear run from heavy duty down to the everyday pair a crew gets through by the box, so the quotation matches the work and the budget.

What hand and body protection covers
| Group | What it covers | How TopBorneo supplies it |
|---|---|---|
| Hand protection | Gloves for general handling, for cut risk, for chemical splash and for heat | To order, per size range and quantity |
| Body protection | Coveralls, jackets and aprons worn over normal work clothing | To order |
| High visibility | Vests and shirts in fluorescent material, so a driver or a crane operator sees a person on the ground | To order |
| Hearing protection | Earplugs and earmuffs for work in noisy areas | To order, per size range and quantity |
| Footwear | Safety shoes and boots | On request, as part of a larger order |
Everything in this group is quoted against your list. The quantity and the delivery date therefore matter more here than they do on the equipment pages.
Work gloves
A glove is the one item of protection a worker takes off when it gets in the way. The choice has to match the job rather than the price list. Four questions decide which glove TopBorneo quotes:
- What is the hazard: abrasion and general handling, a cut risk from sheet metal or a blade, a chemical splash, or heat.
- Does the wearer need grip in oil or in water.
- What size range does the crew need, and how many pairs per month.
- Is this a one time order or a repeat delivery.
Send those four answers and the quote comes back with options instead of one line. Gloves are a consumable, so a repeat order works better than a single purchase for almost every site.
Coveralls, aprons and high visibility vests
Coveralls and aprons keep the hazard off the body and off the clothing underneath. High visibility vests do the opposite job: they make the wearer easy to see against machinery, at night, and in rain. Both are quoted by size and by quantity, and both can carry your company name if you tell TopBorneo before the order is placed.
Hearing protection
Hearing damage from noise builds up without pain and it does not come back. Protection therefore has to be worn on every shift in a noisy area, not only on the loudest days. TopBorneo supplies both kinds.
| Type | What it is | When it suits the work |
|---|---|---|
| Earplugs | Foam or moulded plugs worn inside the ear canal, disposable or reusable | Long shifts, hot and humid work, and jobs where a helmet or a mask is already worn |
| Earmuffs | Cups on a headband that cover the whole ear | Short spells in very loud areas, and work where plugs would be taken out and put back with dirty hands |
Say how loud the area is, how many people work in it, and whether the crew already wears helmets. If it does, ask for muffs that mount on the helmet instead of on a headband, because the two have to fit each other. Plugs and muffs are quoted against your list, like the rest of this group.
Where safety shoes fit
Safety shoes are on the quote list, and TopBorneo supplies them on request when they are part of a larger order for a site. Ask for footwear together with the rest of your PPE list and it goes on the same quotation, so give TopBorneo the sizes and the date you need them by.
One order for the whole crew
Gloves, coveralls and vests are bought again every month, unlike a detector or a harness. TopBorneo supplies gas detection, head, eye and face protection and fall protection, and services and calibrates that equipment in its own workshop. The gloves, coveralls and vests go on the same purchase order, which is one supplier, one delivery note and one invoice instead of three. All product groups are on the safety equipment supplier in Malaysia page.
Common questions
Does TopBorneo sell safety shoes in Malaysia?
Yes, on request, as part of a larger order for a site. Ask for footwear together with the rest of your PPE list and it goes on the same quotation. Give TopBorneo the sizes and the date you need them by.
What safety gloves does TopBorneo supply?
Gloves for general handling, for cut risk, for chemical splash and for heat, quoted by size range and quantity. Tell TopBorneo the hazard, whether grip in oil is needed, the sizes your crew wears and how many pairs per month. The quote then comes back with options rather than one product.
What hearing protection does TopBorneo supply?
Earplugs and earmuffs, quoted by size range and quantity. Earplugs suit long shifts and work where a helmet or a mask is already worn, and earmuffs suit short spells in very loud areas. Tell TopBorneo whether the crew wears helmets, because muffs can be mounted on the helmet instead.
Can gloves and workwear go on the same order as other safety equipment?
Yes. TopBorneo quotes hand and body protection on the same purchase order as gas detectors, helmets and harnesses, and delivers from its offices in Labuan and Kota Kinabalu. That is one supplier, one delivery note and one invoice. Hearing protection goes on the same order.
Where can I buy safety gloves and workwear in Sabah or Labuan?
TopBorneo has an office in Labuan and an office with a workshop, and supplies hand and body protection across Malaysia. Email your list to crm@topborneo.com or send it by WhatsApp, and a quote follows with sizes, quantities and delivery.
Can vests and coveralls carry our company name?
Yes, if you say so before the order is placed. Printing or embroidery is arranged with the order rather than afterwards, so send your logo and the sizes at the same time as the quantity. Changing it later means a second order and a second delivery.
