Prevent knee injury

Posted on Friday 1 January 2010

An award winning, non-foam based, pocketed safety kneepad which maintains its maximum cushioning effect throughout consecutive or prolonged use, can help prevent down time and loss of earnings through knee injury in the workplace.

The claim comes from Cliff Lockyer, CEO of CL-7, manufacturer of the new, UK designed, ‘Redbacks’ cushioning kneepads, which won the ‘2012 SATRA Best Innovation in Occupational PPE Award’.

The kneepads feature a soft and flexible TPE (Thermo Plastic Elastomer) leaf-spring, set within a specially designed ‘honeycomb’ matrix. Body weight is distributed evenly, elevating the knees to relieve back pain and reduce pressure on knee, leg, ankle and foot joints. Risk of possible injury from sharp or penetrating objects is also minimised.
