  • BOA Fit System

    BOA Fit System

    Dial in the perfect fit, with the innovative BOA lacing system. Whether you’re tackling the elements cycling through the foothills, or earning your bread onsite; you can work safe knowing the BOA system has your feet secured. With no messy laces or unreliable zips to deal with, this innovative system uses lightweight, ultra durable laces threaded through the BOA dial system. All you need to do is slip your footwear on, and twist!

    This system was originally conceived from the winter sports industry, being utilised by snowboarders for easy boot removal on the piste. This pedigree was always going to be the perfect fit for Helly Hansen, whose heritage is cut from the same cloth.  

    The benefit of this configuration over traditional lacing systems is that when you tighten the dial, the laces are uniformly tightened for a superior fit that almost hugs the feet. This also benefits the footwear in the long run, expanding their overall lifespan by putting less strain on the uppers.

    For the Helly Hansen range, the BOA system offers accessibility, comfort and simplicity. Combining this system with safety footwear which already exceeds expectations of workers worldwide. The system allows for easy adjustment and total control over the fit of your footwear, as well as making it easier than ever to remove them – the simple quick release makes stepping back out of your boots or trainers easy – even when wearing thick gloves. This also increases the longevity of the footwear, as it discourages workers from pulling their feet out before unfastening – which causes damage to the insides by wearing out the fabric and causing discomfort.

    Our selection of Solid Gear footwear approved by Snickers, and the excellent Helly Hansen Workwear BOA range offers an unparalleled choice – See for yourself, and take a look at the range. https://mammothworkwear.com/boa-footwear/

  • Environmental Policy

    Environmental Policy

    Here at Mammoth Workwear, we are committed to minimising the environmental impact of our activities across the company. To do this, we have laid out a new strategy to tackle this tough issue, and the key points of which are:

    • Minimise waste by evaluating operations and ensuring they are as efficient as possible.

    • Minimise toxic emissions through the selection and use of its vehicles and
    the source of its power requirement.

    • Actively promote recycling both internally and amongst our customers and
    suppliers.

    • Source and promote products to minimise the environmental impact of both production and distribution.

    • Meet or exceed all the environmental legislation that relates to the
    Company.

    • Ongoing technology upgrades throughout the company. This includes a
    recent upgrade to LED lighting in our offices and showroom, a switchover
    from gas to a VRF heating and cooling system and a carbon reduction
    program to introduce electric vehicles to our fleet which recently saw our
    directors switching to electric vehicles.

    Our commitment to recycling continues in ernest too, with all of us pitching in to lessen waste internally, as well as how much we produce when sending out to you, our customers. In addition to this, we’ve colluded with our suppliers to ensure they’re using sustainable, recyclable and eco friendly packing solutions.

    Our internal management systems are constantly being updated to improve efficiencies and also to reduce our use of paper and printing. Where possible, we will use recycled materials in the day to day operation of our business.

    We also intend on introducing a training program internally, to help raise awareness of environmental issues, and enlist the staffs support in the improvement of the company’s performance. As we take strides in going forward as a company and doing our part, we hope you all will to.

    Our eco friendly efforts are not only for ourselves, they’re for you too – which is why we’ve began adding recycled, eco-friendly ranges from manufacturers such as Fristads who have developed the worlds very first environmentally declared workwear collection.
