For those of you who are not aware, The Bloodhound Project, is based in Avonmouth, Bristol, and has been created by Richard Noble OBE, and current Land Speed Record holder Andy Green, not only attempt to break the current Land Speed Record, of 763.035mph set in 2007, but to inspire young people to get into science, engineering and mathematical fields.

The Bloodhound project has been on-going for 8 years and has involved over 350 companies and universities.  And we, at SafetyLiftinGear are proud to say that we are amongst them supplying the Bloodhound project with various material handling products and lifting equipment to ensure that the Supersonic car has been built as safely as possible.

In London’s Canary wharf on the 23rd of September the Bloodhound SSC went on display showing just how this supersonic car has been built. Over 10,000 people queued to catch a glimpse of this piece of amazing engineering over the weekend.

The car will undergo 200 mph tests next year in Cornwall before attempting to break the land speed world record on 15 October 2016.

SafetyLiftinGear are proud to be a part of this truly amazing project.

Save money on high-quality lifting equipment

If you're a regular visitor to the SafetyLiftinGear website, you may have noticed a new feature on our product pages.

That's right - our vast range of lifting equipment and safety gear is now available to hire as well as to buy! This is great news if:

• Your current brief requires a specific piece of equipment that you're unlikely to use again
• Your project's budget does not allow you to purchase the necessary equipment outright
• You don't have room to store your work equipment long-term

We get a lot of enquiries from people looking to hire our products, and so, to make our equipment hire service as straightforward and as accessible as possible, SafetyLiftinGear customers can now specify products and request an equipment hire quotation through our website. Here's what to do:

1. Find the product you wish to hire. Try starting in our Lifting Equipment department, or perhaps our Height Safety section.
   
   
2. Instead of clicking 'Add to Basket' on the product page, click 'Hire Me' instead. This will add the item to your Hire Basket, which is separate from the normal shopping basket.
   
   
3. Go back to step 1 and repeat until all the products you need are in your Hire Basket.
   
   
4. Once you've found everything you need, go to the Basket page and check that everything's present and correct.
   
   
5. Click the 'Enquire' button and enter your details on the enquiry form.
   
   
6. Click 'Proceed' to send your request to the SLG team.

Once we've received your equipment hire enquiry, we'll get back to you ASAP with a quotation. After that, you'll be able to collect the specified equipment at your nearest SafetyLiftinGear depot - we have locations in Bristol, Bridgwater, Cardiff, Leeds, and both East and West London, so no matter where you're based, you shouldn't have too far to travel!
