About Shakeel & Sons

Built by Craftsmen. Trusted by Industry, Since 1998.

What started as a small leatherworking unit in Sialkot has grown into a full-scale export manufacturer of premium safety gloves, leather aprons, and scaffolding gear. Every product that leaves our facility carries the same standard we started with — hand-checked stitching, compliance-tested materials, and a promise that it will hold up on the job site.

Today, we manufacture entirely in-house — from raw hide selection to final export packaging — supplying distributors, traders, and OEM buyers across 60+ countries.

Our Mission

Protect Every Pair of Hands at Work.

To manufacture safety gear that never fails the person wearing it — engineering every glove, apron, and scaffolding bag to meet real workplace conditions, not just paperwork standards.

Our Vision

A Global Standard, Made in Sialkot.

To be recognized as the benchmark leather safety manufacturer from Pakistan — expanding our reach, certifications, and production capacity while keeping craftsmanship at the center of everything we ship.

Our Promise

Quality That Ships On Time, Every Time.

No shortcuts on materials, no delays on delivery. Every order is inspected against ISO, CE, EN388, and ANSI compliance before it leaves the facility.

What We Stand On

The Values Behind Every Stitch.

Nearly three decades of manufacturing has taught us what actually matters to the buyers who depend on us.

01

Craftsmanship

In-house cutting, stitching, and finishing — nothing outsourced, nothing compromised on the details.

02

Compliance

ISO 9001:2015 certified facility with product lines tested to CE, EN388, and ANSI safety standards.

03

Reliability

10,590+ orders delivered and 147 clients served — with punctual shipping distributors can plan around.

04

Partnership

OEM and private-label support handled directly by our team, from sample to full production run.

"We didn't set out to be the biggest glove manufacturer — we set out to be the one buyers never had to double-check."

Leather and fabric sourced from vetted local suppliers, with waste-cut offcuts reused in smaller product lines.

Fair Labor Practices

In-house workforce employed directly — not subcontracted — with fair wages and safe working conditions.

Reduced Waste Packaging

Export packaging designed to minimize material use while still protecting product quality in transit.

Long-Life Products

Reinforced stitching and durable materials mean fewer replacements — better for buyers and for waste reduction.

Innovation & Development

New Materials. Tested Before They Ship.

We don't just manufacture to spec — we develop, test, and refine before a product ever reaches production volume.

01

Custom Product Development

Buyer-specific glove and workwear designs built from sample to final spec, with in-house pattern making.

02

Material Testing

New leather grades and reinforcement fabrics are tested for abrasion, tear strength, and grip before adoption.

03

Iterative Sampling

Multiple sample rounds with buyer feedback before bulk production begins, reducing costly rework later.

04

Compliance-Led Design

Every new product line is designed around ISO, CE, EN388, and ANSI requirements from the first sketch.
