On a job site in Iowa, construction worker P.J. Henderson fell 44 feet. It’s the kind of accident that usually ends in tragedy—but P.J. survived.
“The only reason I’m alive is because your hard hat protected my head… It didn’t break, it’s still intact and wearable. I will never wear anything else.”
This isn’t just a testimonial—it’s a reminder of what’s at stake. And stories like P.J.’s are why CERTEX values our partnership with Pyramex, a company that redefines what personal protective equipment (PPE) should stand for: not just compliance, but commitment. Not just gear that looks good, but gear that performs when it matters most.
A Legacy Built on Integrity
Pyramex isn’t your average PPE manufacturer. Founded in 1991 as a family business, the company has grown into a global leader with distribution in over 60 countries. But their success isn’t just about scale—it’s about values.
At the core of Pyramex is a simple but powerful mission: do the right thing, even when it’s hard. That principle shows up in everything they do—from how they answer the phone to how they stand behind their products. It’s a mission reflected in the way they treat partners, customers, and people like P.J.
Engineering Peace of Mind
Pyramex offers a wide range of PPE—from ANSI-certified eyewear to third-party tested gloves and hard hats. Their innovation doesn’t just meet standards—it helps shape them. As active participants in groups like ANSI Z87 and ISEA, they contribute to evolving safety protocols across industries.
At CERTEX, we regularly recommend Pyramex gear because it consistently delivers on performance and reliability. Some of our go-to solutions include:
- Protective eyewear that combines durability with sleek design.
- Hard hats, including the model that protected P.J., built to withstand serious impact.
- Gloves and workwear designed for durability in real-world jobsite conditions.
These are products engineered by people who genuinely care about safety.
