When we say we are 'leaders in workwear,' it is more than simply a sales slogan.
Not only is it factually correct - Wenaas USA is a division of Kwintet Group, Europe's largest workwear manufacturer - but more importantly, it is an attitude, a determination to excel in every area. Our aim is to set the standards for our industry, not only with regard to the design and manufacturing quality of our product ranges, but also in terms of product knowledge, cost-effectiveness and speed of response.
To achieve this ambition, we not only provide a nationwide coverage and a supply chain that enable us to provide our customers with first-in-class service, but we also do this on a global basis.
We are a leader in supplying high-quality uniforms, workwear, personal protective equipment and safety incentive award programs. We also provide monogramming, logos, screen-printing, striping and other services; just another way we bring added value to our customers.
No matter if you are working offshore, in the Arctic, desert or the tropical heat, we can provide you with proven and tested products. All product recommendations have a strong focus on climate, quality, comfort, cost efficiency and most importantly work requirements. Through our distribution network we can offer customers our
LGS (Local Global Supply chain) concept:
- Select your range of workwear and PPE
- Identify your location
- Local distribution facility will stock and manage your 'range' of products
Principal benefits of this are:
- Implement a Global Health and Safety Policy
- Cut sourcing time and the hassle involved
- Roll out global supply contracts
- Manage and control your supply chain
- Consolidate and leverage your supplier base
- Use the internet for real time management and ERP integration
We have invested heavily in technology - the Group has purchased and developed a number of highly automated production sites, both within Europe and the USA. Controlling our own manufacturing ensures we can meet demand, control our costs and manufacture specifically to your quality / design requirements, essentially unrestricted by price fluctuations or sub-standard service from external suppliers.
The Internet represents another method of improving customer service; this is our corporate site which was recently re-launched promoting our new product ranges. Currently we offer two e-commerce solutions, both of which de-centralize the procurement process giving more control to the customer and also more flexibility regarding their 'range' of PPE.
Our efforts are paying off; we are growing in the North America marketplace, and have already established ourselves as the Market Leader in the Offshore PPE supply sector, as well as creating a substantial presence in several other areas.
Naturally, we continue to follow the ISO9001 standards. However, we believe quality is not just about process - you need the right people, too. Wenaas USA implemented a 'continuous improvement' program for all levels of staff and management, embracing every facet of our business.
Of course, all this is irrelevant if the pricing structure is not fundamentally correct. As a division of Kwintet, we have a huge amount of resources to draw upon, both in terms of 'in-house' manufacturing capability and bulk purchasing power. Allied to our efficient inventory system and wide sales coverage, we think that represents a formidable combination, which ensures we are always highly competitive.
Bottom line? We believe we deliver more than just the minimum standard required and that our 'added value' services make Wenaas a true Global "leader in workwear and personal protective equipment".
