What PPE is required for forestry work in NZ?

NZ WorkSafe requires forestry workers to wear: chainsaw-rated leg protection (AS/NZS 4453), safety helmet with visor and earmuffs, chainsaw boots, and cut-resistant gloves when operating chainsaws.

What is the difference between Class 1 and Class 2 chainsaw protection?

Class 1 is rated for chainsaw chain speeds up to 20 m/s; Class 2 is rated for higher speeds (up to 24 m/s). Arborists using higher-powered saws should select Class 2 rated PPE.

Which forestry PPE brands does KiwiWorkGear stock?

We stock Pfanner, Protos, Clogger, and Andrew Footwear — the leading brands for chainsaw chaps, forestry helmets, arborist boots, and protective gloves in NZ.

Does KiwiWorkGear ship forestry PPE throughout NZ?

Yes — we ship NZ-wide from Masterton. Most forestry PPE orders arrive within 2–5 working days. For urgent requirements, contact us at sales@kiwiworkgear.co.nz.
