![]() ![]() For the purpose of this memo, FRC includes both flame-resistant and fire retardant treated clothing. 132(a), for the failure to provide and use flame-resistant clothing (FRC) in oil and gas well drilling, servicing, and production-related operations. This memorandum is intended to clarify OSHA's policy for citing the general industry standard for personal protective equipment (PPE). We are looking forward to presenting more ideas for shrinking Shell’s carbon footprint.Directorate of Cooperative and State ProgramsĮnforcement Policy for Flame-Resistant Clothing in Oil and Gas Drilling, Well Servicing, and Production-Related Operations Recent steps taken to improve the sustainability of Shell’s uniforms reflect favourably on the global brand. Wstar’s relationship with Shell stands firm as we continue to design, make and supply service station and convenience store uniforms that employees enjoy wearing. The result – a long-standing relationship that continues to strengthen In Canada, uniforms are securely recycled/repurposed locally through Debrand CA.Garments are manufactured in bulk, to ensure cost-efficiency and ongoing supplies for new employees and new sites.For the required markets, we source anti-static fabrics that minimise the potential for static electricity sparks to come into contact with petroleum.Uniforms are packaged in 100% recycled polybags, which meet GRS (global recycle standard) and can be recycled into soft plastic after use.Compared to virgin fibre, making fabric with rPET uses 90% less water and 70% less energy. Around 15 PET bottles can produce one polo shirt. ![]() This high quality polyester fibre is produced from recycled PET (polyethylene terephthalate) plastic bottles. A number of garment lines are manufactured using rPET fibre.Polo shirts are printed using FUSIONTECH™ printing technology, which ensures garments look good for longer.We deliver Shell service station uniforms that fit the brand as perfectly as they fit the workers. ![]() Our solution – country-specific uniforms that meet new standards for sustainability Overarching all local and global requirements is a growing need to address sustainability and help position Shell as an energy company that respects the environment. Sizing requirements vary considerably between countries, reflecting the diversity around the world. Additional to these challenges is the requirement for anti-static materials, and the need to provide uniforms for convenience store sub-brands, like Delicafé, and charity commitments such as Breast Cancer Awareness. In bilingual countries, such as Canada, branding has to respect two languages. While the Shell logo is recognised around the world, every country has its own adaptation of the brand’s colours and visual assets. Shell is a global group of energy and petrochemical companies that operates in 70+ countries. The challenge – meeting local needs while respecting the global brand The uniforms we design, manufacture and distribute are worn proudly in the USA, Canada, Mexico, Dominican Republic, Chile and Australia. Wstar have been working with the global energy group Shell for more than 15 years. More than 100,000 Shell employees wear our uniforms ![]()
