Collection: About Novarlo

OUR STORY

Created when X1 Safety + Metron Branding joined forces, Novarlo is the new name for a commitment to safety, comfort, and protection that stretches back three generations.

In the days when the grandfather of Novarlo co-founders’ (Garth and Kurt Ivory) set up business, the idea of looking after workers was a bit revolutionary.

Their grandfather, however, saw a desperate need for respiratory protection for people operating in challenging industries; including factories and foundries.

From there, the company took it to the next level. Thinking about ways to increase the comfort, confidence, and performance of people using the product. And, ultimately, embracing the new technology that made them world leaders in their field. 

Still focused on worker well-being, the brothers teamed up with other shareholders who have been delivering quality branded apparel to American workers for over a decade. They all share a passion for serving their fellow man.

Today, Novarlo combines world-leading specialist protective equipment, PPE and apparel.

The company is dedicated to delivering excellence, and going above and beyond to ensure satisfaction. Carefully thought-through programs provide an exceptional user experience, and bring people in a company together, through custom branding that communicates shared values, and equal respect for everyone on the team.
