Paccon Safety – PPE equipment and clothing
19 years supporting New Zealand horticulture
Paccon Safety Ltd has for 19 years been supplying the horticulture industry with PPE (personal protective equipment) and clothing.
It is no accident that Paccon Safety has become the leading specialist in horticulture PPE, as the original owners Karen and Peter Scott were orchardists themselves, and Richard McLean was a horticulture cadet early in his career, progressing though the industry to manage one of the largest 3PL (third party logistics) apple coolstores in the country during the late 1990s. Today Richard continues to drive Paccon Safety forward as the owner and general manager. He is supported by a growing sales team who have a combined 38 years in the industrial safety sector. Their dedicated administration, retail and warehousing teams make the business the success it is today.
Richard’s personal and family background in the horticulture industry means he brings to the business an understanding from 30 years of personal experience of what the industry requires. Today the company specialises in all types of PPE for horticulture, including Paccon Safety custom designs of packhouse uniforms for many of the apple, kiwifruit and avocado exporters and nurseries. They also supply thousands of uniforms needed by the Recognised Seasonal Employment (RSE) scheme teams when they arrive in New Zealand for the thinning and harvest season. Customised garment packs are a specialty for RSE arrivals.
