Direct peers

• Ansell: Global manufacturer of hand and body protection (industrial gloves, protective apparel), directly competing with the Hytest, The Safety Zone and Microgard lines that Equipro distributes.
• MSA Safety: Manufacturer of safety equipment including fixed and portable gas detectors, fall protection, head and respiratory protection, directly overlapping with several of Equipro's core Dräger/Honeywell/3M product lines.
• Würth: Global industrial distribution group selling fasteners, PPE, tools and safety supplies directly to industrial workshops and manufacturers, mirroring Equipro's model of supplying manufacturers with PPE and consumables.
• Brady Corporation: Manufacturer of lockout/tagout, safety identification and facility safety products, overlapping directly with Equipro's Bloqueo y Etiquetado category where Master Lock Safety Solutions is also a competitor.

Broad incumbents

• Dräger: Global manufacturer of gas detection (Polytron series) and respiratory protection (PAS Colt, Xplore) equipment, directly overlapping with one of Equipro's core brand principals.
• W.W. Grainger: Largest U.S. MRO distributor of industrial equipment, safety products and PPE. Comparable as a broad-line safety/PPE distributor, but with vastly larger scale, broader catalog and pan-regional logistics that Equipro cannot match.
• Honeywell Safety Products: Industrial safety division of Honeywell that manufactures gas detection (Sensepoint, Polytron), respiratory and fall protection products that Equipro distributes under the same brand portfolio.
• Fastenal: Global industrial and safety supplies distributor serving manufacturing customers with fasteners, PPE, and MRO products. Comparable B2B distribution model focused on industrial workplaces, but with on-site vending, FMI programs and global scale.
• Master Lock / Master Lock Safety Solutions: Manufacturer of security padlocks and LOTO devices that Equipro distributes in the Dominican Republic under formal partnership; a directly comparable line of business and also a strategic brand principal.
• 3M Safety: Manufacturer of fall protection, respiratory and PPE solutions; Equipro is one of 3M Fall Protection's engineering channel partners in the Dominican Republic for customized fall protection systems.
