About Arco
Protection for the job
Head protection, eye protection and respiratory masks sit beside gloves, high-visibility clothing and safety footwear. Workwear covers many industries, and the shop also supplies first aid kits, hygiene and cleaning products and equipment for facilities management. Alongside well-known brands, Arco sells products under its own name.
For businesses with legal duties, advice matters as much as stock. Arco's safety specialists help customers choose kit that suits the risk and meets British and European standards.
How products are checked
Arco runs its own independently accredited testing laboratory and puts products through a five-step assurance process. No UK safety company joined the Ethical Trading Initiative before Arco, and it has now been a member for 17 years. It also belongs to Sedex and audits its suppliers regularly.
Ordering
UK delivery includes next-day options, and orders over £40 qualify for free delivery. International shipping is available too. Unused items can be returned, with the full policy on the website. Payment is by Visa, Mastercard, PayPal or a trade account. NHS and Blue Light Card holders can claim a discount.
