Portwest PW94 Replacement Mesh Visor is a replacement component for an existing compatible face-protection assembly. The manufacturer lists it for the PW93 browguard and the PW58 and PS58 visor carriers. Its wire-mesh construction allows airflow and a view through the screen, with EN 1731 F listed for low-energy impact protection. Check your carrier model and the supplied assembly instructions before ordering. This item is the replacement visor, so it needs the appropriate support system to be worn. Mesh is not a sealed barrier against liquid splashes or fine dust; select any additional eye or respiratory protection required by the task. Inspect the mesh and attachment points regularly, and replace damaged parts using the manufacturer’s instructions.
Portwest PW98 Forestry Combi Kit brings together a vented safety helmet, hearing protectors and a mesh face visor for suitable outdoor work. The helmet has a ratchet-adjusted headband and a six-point textile suspension, with a chin strap included. The combined arrangement keeps the components together while allowing their fit to be checked individually. The kit is listed in orange. Select it against the hazards, noise levels and other PPE required for the task, and follow the supplied assembly and adjustment instructions. A mesh visor does not provide a sealed barrier to liquids or fine particles. Inspect the shell, harness, visor and ear-muff seals before use, and replace components only with the approved parts specified for this kit.
Stormtech QXH1 Nautilus Quilted Hooded Jacket provides lightweight insulation with a windproof outer shell and a water-repellent finish. The feather-free filling, adjustable hood and elasticated cuffs help retain warmth, while an internal storm flap sits behind the front zip. Zipped pockets keep small essentials close during everyday outdoor use. Choose black, navy or dolphin in the S to 3XL sizes listed here. Check the fit over your usual workwear and allow comfortable movement through the shoulders and arms. The adjustable hem helps refine the fit, while the quilted appearance suits coordinated staff clothing and casual uniforms. Follow the garment and decoration-care instructions, and choose a suitable waterproof layer when prolonged or heavy rain is expected.

Evans Cleansan 25L is a concentrated detergent for cluster-flush and teat-brush systems on dairy farms. It cleans milking clusters between animals and is suitable for use through compatible teat-brush equipment. The QAC-free formulation contains no peracetic acid, making it an option for cluster-flush systems where corrosion is a concern. Cleansan requires a preparation stage before dosing: the 25 litre container is mixed with 175 litres of clean water to make 200 litres of prepared solution. That solution is then metered through the appropriate system at the manufacturer’s specified setting. Use the correct instructions for cluster flushing or teat brushing, as their dosing requirements differ. This listing supplies product code R013KEV.

Maintain clean dip cups, replenish with fresh solution and follow the product label for handling. Before the next milking, remove remaining product and clean and dry the teats thoroughly using the farm’s agreed preparation procedure.
Evans Vanodine Pre-Post Gold™ is a ready-to-use iodophor teat disinfectant designed for both pre- and post-milking use.

Apply undiluted with full coverage, keep the equipment clean and top up with fresh product as needed. Supplied in a 25-litre container for routine dairy hygiene.

It cleans milking machines, pipelines and jars without heating the water for the routine cold wash. The powder mixes easily, produces no foam and rinses freely, with suitability for hard or soft water. Coldwash uses a specific two-wash procedure that includes retaining the first wash solution and rinsing the plant immediately before the next milking. This differs from a conventional single-use wash cycle, so the full manufacturer’s programme must be followed. Check equipment suitability and read the current label and safety data sheet before use. This listing supplies the 25kg pack, Evans product code R041HEV.
