nvironmental, Social and Corporate Governance (ESG) is a growing agenda for many firms, and while once perhaps perceived to be a consideration reserved for large organisations, it is now


an increasingly important factor for organisations of all sizes, spanning all sectors. Arguably, a major arena where ESG should be a key priority is in the industrial sphere, where, whether the focus is on manufacturing in the automotive, chemical, food and beverage, or paper and packaging sectors, there is a significant environmental impact. PPE forms a large part of this impact and


is a huge consideration for industrial businesses. It is a major growth area: the global PPE market is projected to grow from $80.38 billion in 2022 to $110.85 billion by 2029, according to a recent report from Fortune Business Insights, with manufacturing leading the market.
