Walk onto any active construction site along Nairobi’s Thika Superhighway, step into a manufacturing plant in the Industrial Area, or visit a hospital ward in Kisumu — and one garment appears across all of them: the safety overall. It is not simply clothing. It is the first line of defence between a Kenyan worker and the hazards their environment presents every single day.

Safety overalls — also called coveralls or protective overalls — are full-body or torso-covering garments designed to protect workers from dust, chemicals, mechanical hazards, flame, high visibility requirements, and biological contamination. In Kenya, the Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA 2007) and the Work Injury Benefits Act (WIBA) both place a direct legal obligation on employers to provide appropriate protective clothing to every exposed worker.

Non-compliance is not just a legal risk — it is a human one. DOSH (Directorate of Occupational Safety and Health Services) Kenya records thousands of workplace injuries annually that proper PPE could have prevented or reduced. Safety overalls are not optional. They are essential infrastructure for every Kenyan workplace.

Safety Hub Enterprises Limited was founded in 2019 with two employees and a single clear purpose: to become the most trusted PPE supplier and workwear manufacturer in Kenya. Today, that vision has been realised. The company now operates with over 60 full-time employees, a Nairobi-based manufacturing operation, and a product catalogue spanning over 600 SKUs — with safety overalls forming the core of its manufacturing output.

What separates Safety Hub from the dozens of importers and resellers operating in Kenya’s PPE market is simple: Safety Hub manufactures. The overalls you buy from Safety Hub are cut, sewn, and finished in Nairobi — to your specifications, in your colours, with your branding, and to the exact certification standard your industry requires.

Every safety overall produced by Safety Hub meets EN 531 standards — the European standard for protective clothing used in heat and flame environments. This is the certification demanded by Kenya’s major construction contractors, oil and gas operators, multinational manufacturers, and international NGOs. It is also the standard audited by DOSH during workplace inspections.

For Kenyan employers, sourcing EN 531 certified overalls from a local Nairobi manufacturer removes the risk of counterfeiting, eliminates import-related delays, and provides a direct audit trail — all critical factors when DOSH inspectors arrive at your site.

No other single supplier in Kenya offers the breadth of overall types that Safety Hub manufactures. The full range includes plain safety overalls, reflective safety overalls, short-sleeved reflective overalls, white overalls with reflectors, fire retardant overalls, food handling overalls, and chemical spray suits — all available from KSh 1,000.

Safety Hub operates a full in-house garment branding facility offering both embroidery and screen printing on any overall type. Hotels along Nairobi’s Westlands corridor use Safety Hub’s embroidered housekeeping overalls. Construction companies on Mombasa Road have their company logo stitched onto every safety overall. Hospitals in Kisumu use Safety Hub’s branded medical coveralls. The embroidery department handles logos, employee names, department designations, and safety classifications — all with commercial-grade durability.
