Road maintenance, one of the most aggressive environments for equipment
Tar, motor oils, polluted runoff, urban waste, road sludge… Road maintenance workers have plenty of reasons to return from work with heavily soiled equipment. Boots, gloves, and workwear absorb a variety of contaminants, some of which pose real health risks in the event of prolonged or repeated contact.
Due to a lack of time between shifts, PPE often remains damp or poorly dried, which accelerates its degradation and compromises the health of those who wear it. For over 40 years, JVD has been developing hygiene solutions designed for the most exposed professions. With robustness, French manufacturing, and chemical-free efficiency, we help local authorities better protect their field teams, shift after shift.
How to improve PPE hygiene for road maintenance workers?
Damp PPE when putting on boots, a jacket smelling of fuel at the end of a shift: these are subtle warning signs of a real maintenance issue.
Over time, it is the workers who suffer (irritation, discomfort, lower motivation) and the local authorities that absorb the cost of premature equipment replacement.
Our Novven and Hygitec solutions tackle the problem at the source. Controlled drying to eliminate moisture deep down, disinfecting action without using chemicals, and treatment of stubborn odors linked to road contaminants: at the start of every shift, workers get equipment that is truly restored to like-new condition.

Why invest in PPE hygiene for road maintenance workers?
Fewer replacements, better budget control
A well-dried and properly cared-for piece of PPE lasts much longer than equipment left to its own devices. Reducing premature wear also means lowering the frequency of orders, easing inventory management, and smoothing out expenses over time.
Workers who feel valued
Providing clean and dry equipment at the start of every shift is a simple yet concrete gesture. In demanding and often underappreciated professions, this daily attention has a real impact on the morale, commitment, and retention of your workers.
A responsible purchasing approach
Zero chemicals, fewer laundry cycles, longer-lasting equipment: JVD solutions align directly with responsible public procurement practices and contribute to your CSR goals, a factor that carries more and more weight in public tenders.
