When it comes to personal protective equipment (PPE) and uniform supply, safety should never be assumed, it should be proven. That’s exactly where the BSIF Registered Safety Supplier Scheme (RSS) comes in.
At Yaffy, we’re proud to be officially recognised as a BSIF Registered Safety Supplier, but what does that really mean, and why is it important to the organisations and frontline professionals we serve?
The British Safety Industry Federation (BSIF) created the Registered Safety Suppler (RSS) Certification to raise standards across the UK safety market. It’s more than just a badge, it’s a commitment.
Companies that display the RSS shield, like Yaffy, have signed a binding declaration that everything we supply meets the right standards, complies fully with PPE regulations, and is genuinely UKCA or CE marked.
In short: it’s an assurance for Yaffy customers that the kit you’re sourcing is exactly what it claims to be; authentic, compliant, and safe.
Whether you're managing a framework, purchasing for a force, or heading up procurement for frontline uniforms, the BSIF scheme offers you:
Peace of mind – knowing that your supplier is regularly audited and technically competent.
Certified compliance – all products meet the strict regulations required under UK PPE law.
Protection from counterfeits – no grey market goods, no cutting corners.
A trusted supply chain – backed by industry expertise and accountability.
The mission of the RSS is simple but powerful: to make sure that only correctly performing, compliant products reach the people who rely on them most. For frontline services, that assurance is everything.
By choosing a supplier with the BSIF shield, you’re not just ticking a box. You’re making a proactive choice for safety, integrity, and peace of mind.
