Operating Environment
The Kazakh steppes present a formidable challenge, with drastic annual temperature variations that range from scorching summers to bone-chilling winters. We understand that your safety and comfort are of utmost importance, which is why we have developed the Uranium Collection to ensure that you are fully protected, regardless of the season.
Summer is notorious for its sweltering heat, and we have crafted garments that will keep you cool and comfortable. Our summer workwear is engineered using advanced fabric technologies that prioritize breathability and moisture-wicking properties. This innovative design allows for optimal heat dissipation and sweat evaporation, keeping your body temperature regulated even in the most extreme summer conditions.
Winter, on the other hand, brings its own set of challenges, with icy winds and piercing cold that can be unbearable. Fear not! The Uranium Collection offers winter workwear that provides superior insulation and protection against the elements. Our garments are crafted with cutting-edge insulation materials, ensuring that you stay warm and shielded from the harshest winter conditions. Say goodbye to shivering and discomfort and embrace the comfort and protection that our collection provides.
Uranium In-Situ Recovery (ISR)
The most common way to extract uranium in the Kazakhstan industry that involves drilling and handling chemically active fluids under high pressure (sulphuric acid). Worksites are normally remote and unprotected from weather. PPE protection properties are focused to reduce impact from aggressive chemicals, bad weather, low air temperatures and wind.
