See inside our new Trafford Park Safety Centre

Providing both safety training and essential kit in one facility, take a look inside our newly-opened Trafford Park safety centre.

Our new Trafford Park safety centre in Manchester brings together specialist safety training and essential equipment in one convenient location. The site includes advanced facilities for working at height, confined space, respiratory protection, face fit testing and health & safety management, alongside a newly opened store with more than 2,000 products to choose from.

State-of-the-art safety training facilities

Built to help people working in potentially high-risk environments gain the right knowledge and hands-on experience, our Trafford Park Safety Centre includes purpose-designed training areas. Among them is a confined space training labyrinth with more than 30 metres of tunnels and chambers, along with multiple entry points. The centre also features equipment designed to recreate a range of working at height scenarios, including an external rooftop training area, additional internal rooftop systems, a working at height gantry and a pitched roof (coming soon). Training rooms for both larger and smaller groups are also available for courses and meetings.

The new store offers a wide selection of personal protective equipment, workwear and workplace safety products from well-known brands such as TROJAN, Snickers, Regatta, Puma, DeWALT, MASCOT, CAT and many others.

A one-stop shop for all your safety needs

Paul Frewin, Divisional Director of Regions & Retail, said: "The opening of our new Trafford Park safety centre is an important milestone for Arco as it will provide our customers with a one-stop-shop for all of their safety needs. As experts in safety, we understand that each business faces its own unique and complex challenges and that, in order to manage workplace health and safety, we need to provide joined-up safety solutions to help our customers.

"The new Trafford Park safety centre will offer customers the best possible selection of products and services with our own in-store experts available to offer advice and training, ensuring an effortless customer experience. In addition to providing both products and services in one place, we are confident that local tradespeople will enjoy the new location within the busy industrial estate."

Applying our skills in real-world settings

At Arco Professional Safety Services, our training team does more than teach professionals how to work safely. We also put that expertise into practice in real-world environments, from supporting NHS Trusts with PPE face-fit testing during the pandemic to assisting in the Thailand and South Wales cave rescues, deep cleaning exhibits at the Imperial War Museum and helping the London Eye deliver a James Bond stunt ahead of the No Time to Die premiere.
