New Pig Corporation, the leader in helping facilities create cleaner, safer and more productive environments, introduces PIG Grippy Carpeted Entrance Mat, the world’s first adhesive-backed carpeted mat. This latest addition to the Grippy Mat product line provides a stylish new solution to risky and outdated rubber-backed entrance mats that shift, slide and create tripping hazards.
Slip resistance testing is a complex process, and an effective slip test machine needs to control and measure a number of key criteria reproducing the critical factors relating to slip when walking. ASTM F2913-11 provides a quantitative assessment of the safety of footwear for the U.S. market.
The Walk Zone Safety Report could be a good resource for your next training session on walking-working surface safety. Many organizations underestimate floor safety risks and are unaware of high-risk walk zones in their buildings, according to a survey conducted by New Pig.
Slips and falls to the same level are the second leading cause of lost worktime injuries, and the cause of 171 employee deaths in 2014, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
One way to help prevent slips, trips and falls is to make sure shoe covers provide as much traction and slip resistance as possible. Kimtech Pure A8 Unitrax Shoe Covers from Kimberly-Clark Professional do this by delivering four times more grip than competitive products.
The MAGNATTACK™ Magnetic Mat controls the transfer of ferrous metal into sensitive areas, such as production rooms and offices. Strong RE80™ rare earth magnets are utilized in the 35” x 27” mat that features a lift-off top mat to release the metal fragments, allowing for easy cleaning and removal of collected metals.
Superior Manufacturing Group, the industry-leading makers of NoTrax®, Akro™, APEX™, and HomeTrax Designs™ floor matting products, has added new updated designs to the Safety Message Mat product line.
