Bristol Uniforms Ltd is the UK's leading designer, manufacturer and supplier of protective clothing for firefighters.

In addition to serving the needs of UK firefighters, Bristol Uniforms is a leading international brand meeting the diverse needs of today's professional firefighter in over 110 countries around the world through a network of some 70 distributors across 4 continents.

Protecting firefighters against the hazards of fire and chemical exposure has been the focus of the company's fire clothing product development programmes for over 40 years. The original Home Office A1 fire clothing specification introduced in 1965 resulted directly from the pioneering development work undertaken by Bristol Uniforms. It remains the UK market leader in fire clothing design.

The increasing emphasis on firefighter safety has had a major impact on the development of new and more stringent performance standards for personal protective equipment (PPE) in the UK as well as internationally. Bristol Uniforms, from its unique position in the industry, has played its part in helping to shape the internationally recognised garment standards which ensure the safety of firefighters in the 21st century in many countries of the world today. These include the European Standard EN469:2005 and American Standard NFPA1971:2007, the equivalent for bunker gear and turnout gear in the USA.

Bristol Uniforms is part of the BTQ Group which specialise in PPE and includes Topps Safety Apparel Inc, Bristol Fire Apparel Inc, Quaker Safety Products and Pro-Tuff.
