Award Winning Knee Pads save Injury,
Time and Money
For those who spend any amount of
time kneeling in their work, an award
winning, non-foam based, worktrouser pocketed safety kneepad
which maintains its maximum
cushioning effect throughout
consecutive or prolonged use, can
help avoid osteoarthritis or even knee
replacement.
Cliff Lockyer, CEO of CL-7 Limited,
the Daventry, Northamptonshire
based manufacturers of the UK
designed, ‘Redbacks’ cushioning
kneepads says: “With over 90,000
registered knee replacement
operations by the NHS and 60%
of injuries resulting from soft
tissue ‘wear and tear’, it is vital to
have the correct knee protection
in the workplace in order to avoid
long-term pain and discomfort and
prevent expensive down time loss of
earnings”.
The kneepads, which are winners of
the ‘2012 SATRA Best Innovation
in Occupational PPE Award’ and
nominated for ‘top product’ awards
by leading UK trade media for
2014, feature a soft and flexible
TPE (Thermo Plastic Elastomer)
leaf-spring set within a unique
honeycomb matrix.
This unique ‘Redbacks Cushioning
Technology’ distributes body weight
evenly, elevating the knees to relieve
back pain and reduce pressure on
knee, leg, ankle and foot joints, whilst
minimising the risk of possible injury
from sharp or penetrating objects.
