Winter work safety solutions

1. Prevent slip and falls with HeatTrak® Industrial Snow Melting Walkway Mats

HeatTrak® PRO commercial-grade Industrial Snow Melting Walkway Mats prevent slips and falls by keeping icy walkways in high-traffic areas clear and safe.

These industrial-strength heated sidewalk mats effectively melt snow and ice and are designed to be left outside for the entire winter season.

They offer tire-like durability for heavy traffic and excel in commercial walkways, stairs, and rooftops.

2. Avoid slipping on ice and snow with SureWerx K1 Series Mid-Sole Ice Cleats 

Though slips and falls occur year-round, outdoor work in winter poses additional hazards.

SureWerx K1 Series Mid-Sole Ice Cleats provide grip on icy and snowy surfaces, helping prevent slips while walking outside for work.

The K1 Series® Mid-Sole ice cleat is the one-size-fits-all winter traction solution. The ice-penetrating tungsten carbide spikes maximize grip while the rotatable design provides seamless transition when traction is not required. Features include:

• Available in Original, Low-Profile, and High-Profile styles to provide near-universal coverage of all footwear.
• Strategically placed ice-penetrating tungsten carbide spikes provide maximum traction on ice and snow.
• Black or hi-vis adjustable strap delivers a perfect fit regardless of shoe size
• Easy-to-use design rotates to the top of the foot to allow driving, climbing, and indoor use

3. Protect your extremities with TechNiche® Air Activated Hand Warmers

Working outside in the cold without proper protection can lead to some nasty injuries. Frostbite can occur on exposed skin in less than 30 minutes at a -27C wind chill.

In addition to using proper winter gloves and thermal socks, consider TechNiche® Air Activated Hand Warmers for added comfort.

• These fit perfectly with headwear or gloves and provide over 10 hours of warmth.
• Heating can be suspended at any time by resealing the inserts in an airtight container

4. Protect against harsh winds with an IFR Kermel® Knit Rib Balaclava

Standing outside with 50 km/h winds is not fun. But you don't have to suffer. Avoid getting dry skin and cold stress by layering on an IFR Kermel® Knit Rib Balaclava before you head outside.

These face and neck warmers are soft and comfortable, easily shielding you from strong winds. The inherently flame-resistant, dual-layer material offers reliable protection and long-lasting durability.
