Taking place on 22 September 2026, Impact Workwear’s Health & Safety Innovation Event will be a one-day exhibition showcasing the latest developments in workplace protection. Bringing together 20 leading manufacturers of PPE, workwear and workplace safety equipment, the event will offer health and safety professionals, procurement teams, businesses and anyone with an interest in workplace safety a unique opportunity to explore the latest workwear and head-to-toe PPE solutions, all under one roof.

The exhibition will also provide a platform for learning and knowledge sharing. Visitors can attend a dedicated Safety Seminar Series featuring back-to-back toolbox talks covering head-to-toe PPE, sustainability and the latest EN standards. These sessions will provide practical insight into product developments, industry challenges and emerging trends, offering valuable takeaways for professionals responsible for workplace safety.

Attendees will also have the opportunity to engage directly with some of the industry’s leading manufacturers and suppliers, gaining first-hand insight into new technologies, protective clothing, safety equipment and specialist solutions designed to improve safety, comfort, compliance and performance in the workplace.

The event will also highlight Impact Workwear’s commitment to supporting local communities. Long-standing charity partners Wansbeck Valley Foodbank and The Percy Hedley Foundation will both be present with dedicated stands, helping to raise awareness of the vital work they carry out across the North East and beyond.

Alongside leading PPE and workwear manufacturers, attendees will also have the opportunity to engage with Make UK Defence, offering a valuable perspective on safety and innovation within the UK’s defence manufacturing sector.

As part of the anniversary celebrations, Impact Workwear has committed to donating 50% of exhibitor contributions from the event to its two chosen charities, with proceeds split equally between them. This initiative reflects the company’s belief that successful businesses have a responsibility to create a positive impact beyond the workplace and support the communities in which they operate.
