About MCR Safety

MCR Safety has spent more than 50 years earning its reputation as one of the most trusted names in personal protective equipment (PPE). The company was formed by merging three leading industrial PPE companies — Memphis Gloves, Crews Glasses, and River City Garments — each committed to delivering reliable safety gear at competitive prices with exceptional service. That combined heritage gives MCR Safety a uniquely broad foundation: deep expertise in hand protection, eye protection, and protective garments all under a single brand.

Today, MCR Safety is a leading PPE provider with over 50 years of experience, offering more than 5,000 SKUs of top-quality work gloves, safety glasses, safety goggles, face shields, safety clothing, welding gear, chemical protection, and flame-resistant clothing designed for maximum safety, comfort, and style. Whether you work in construction, automotive, manufacturing, food processing, or oil and gas, MCR Safety has gear engineered for your environment.

Hand Protection Built for the Real World

Hand protection sits at the heart of what MCR Safety does. Their work gloves span an enormous range of applications — from lightweight string-knit styles for general use to cut-resistant, impact-rated, and coated options for demanding industrial tasks. From cut-resistant and impact gloves to disposable and specialty options, each product is carefully selected to meet real-world demands without compromising fit or dexterity.

For environments requiring single-use hand protection, MCR Safety's disposable gloves deliver. Options include vinyl gloves as a powder-free alternative to latex, plus chemical-resistant and all-purpose styles suited to a wide variety of tasks. And for those who work around heat, sparks, and molten metal, the brand's welding gloves offer dedicated protection. In any high-heat situation, high-quality PPE is essential to guard against molten metal splatter, radiation, sparks, and burns — hazards that can cause serious and long-lasting injuries. MCR Safety manufactures a full line of welding gear designed to protect against the dangers of welding environments.

Eye Protection and High-Visibility Gear

The former Crews Glasses brand — now fully integrated into MCR Safety — has long been recognized as a leader in protective eyewear. With a wide variety of glasses and goggles available for any application, styles and lens coatings include anti-fog, mirror, polarized, bifocal, ballistic, and more. MCR Safety's safety glasses are built to ANSI standards, combining genuine optical clarity with all-day wearability — because gear workers actually want to wear is gear that keeps them safer.

Rounding out the lineup, the River City Garments legacy lives on in MCR Safety's high-visibility apparel. MCR Safety can outfit workers head to toe in protective clothing, with hi-vis vests, rain and chemical gear, footwear, outerwear, aprons, and disposable clothing all among their staples. Their highway safety vests meet ANSI/ISEA visibility standards and are designed for workers on job sites, roadways, and anywhere being seen is a matter of life and safety.

A Manufacturer You Can Count On

Today, MCR Safety manufactures PPE directly in North America and distributes it through an extensive network of authorized global distributors. Their leadership team actively engages with industry associations such as ISEA, NSC, and ASSP, contributing to the creation of industry guidelines and safety standards. When you choose MCR Safety, you're choosing a brand that doesn't just sell safety — it helps define it.
