High-vis padding for impact hazards

Safepad products are designed to reduce the likelihood of impact by the use of high visibility material and minimise the consequences of impact by covering the hazard with protective padding.

The company’s products include pads, tube-ends, cylinders and edge protection that are available in various sizes. All are built to function in heavy-duty industrial work environments, Safepad said.

Safepad’s products have flame-retardant and static-resistant materials that it says have been site-tested in offshore, corrosive and temperature extreme environments.

In the past, impact hazards were either painted or covered with old rags and duct tape, according to Safepad.
 

Safepad said impact hazards caused almost 25% of all work related injuries in Australia in 2009-2010 and that there were 157,300 separate incidents generating about $385m in treatment and downtime costs.
