Harsh chemicals and abrasive materials must be avoided. If in doubt, please contact PSG with the specific chemicals or sanitising equipment used in your plant and we will be able to advise if they will cause adverse reactions to the frame and lens materials.

If you work in food manufacturing, healthcare or other hygiene critical environments, PSG Eyewear can recommend frame styles within our range that are durable, easy to clean and compatible with your other required PPE.
