ARX Introduces PPE Line Specifically for Women, Addressing Longstanding Industry Gap

ARX, a women-owned personal protective equipment (PPE) brand, has launched its debut product line specifically designed for women, aiming to redefine safety standards in industries where women have been underserved by PPE originally designed for men. Founded by Dr. Hilary Gallin and Kaitlin McCarthy, ARX addresses the need for PPE that fits women properly, combining comfort, function, and fit with the company's proprietary Multipoint Fit System.

The launch comes at a critical time, aligning with updated OSHA regulations that require PPE to properly fit any construction worker. ARX's vest, for example, is ANSI-107 Type R Class 2 Certified, meeting these updated OSHA standards. The brand's initial offerings, including the Original Vest and Original Shirt, are already trusted by leading companies in the construction industry, signaling a shift towards more inclusive safety gear.

ARX's initiative not only fills a significant gap in the PPE market but also challenges the status quo, promoting culture, confidence, and equality on jobsites. With plans to expand into additional sectors, ARX is poised to transform the landscape of safety gear for women across various industries.
