Although it’s still summer, it’s important to prepare for the unpredictable months of winter weather. To this end, Ergodyne has announced an expansion of its N-Ferno line of Tenacious Work Gear. The line is part of a larger campaign focused on educating safety managers and work crews on the keys to preventing, identifying and treating cold-related illnesses.
The extremes of last winter really pushed work crews, and their gear, to the limit,” said Alsie Nelson, senior product manager, Ergodyne. “These new solutions have been largely driven by worker feedback and demand.”
Versatility becomes paramount in winter work gear as the weather gets less and less predictable, and the new 6838 Solar-Activated Balaclava gives workers a variety of options for wear to adapt to changing forecasts and personal preference. Advanced Heaterex technology uses solar rays to create an exothermic warming reaction, amplifying the warming effect of the material up to 15° F (10° C). The result: More warmth, less bulk.
Additionally, the N-Ferno 6802 Zippered Trapper Hat with Bump Cap Insert gives a cold-weather classic a boost in utility. It can be worn alone or combined with Ergodyne’s popular 8945 Universal Bump Cap Insert to protect against bumps, scrapes, bruises, and other minor head injuries. The patent-pending design features a zippered compartment on the top that opens to fit the insert.
“Being productive through the winter months isn’t about toughing it out,” said Tom Votel, president & CEO, Ergodyne. “It’s about planning ahead, taking regular breaks to get warm, and layering up in the right gear. Preparation is key, and our mission is making sure workers have what they need to be ready for whatever this winter has in store.”
