Cooling towel and helmet liner help workers combat heat
Last August, this company introduced a chemical-free cooling helmet liner with a nape cover and a cooling towel designed to shield wearers from harmful sun rays and sweltering heat. The helmet liner with attached nape cover and cooling towel feature long-lasting, chemical-free cooling technology with UPF-50 sun protection. Workers simply wet the garments with water thoroughly, wring out excess water, then snap or wave them to activate, helping workers stay cooler for up to 2 h per rinse. The accessories are composed of 92% polyester and 85 Spandex, and are machine washable. These accessories can be worn with the company’s SHK-1 and the SHK-1 Full-Brim safety helmets. The SHK-1 helmets feature Koroyd welded polymer tubes that are 95% comprised of air, which allows for greater airflow and sweat evaporation around the head. — Studson, Inc. Lake Oswego, Ore.
