Here at SafetyLiftinGear, we love versatile products with multiple uses, and one of the best examples from our own range is our four-panel safety barrier. With a high-visibility design and a lightweight folding frame that makes it easy to transport, this product is a superb all-purpose safety solution that can be used practically anywhere.

Here are some examples of situations in which our safety barrier might come in handy:

• Working underground? Use our safety barrier to cordon off the entrance and prevent others from falling in or dropping items down the hole.
  
  
• Working at height? The safety barrier can be used to prevent people from entering the area directly beneath you (where they may be at risk from falling objects).
  
  
• Working on a road? Our safety barrier is ideal for roadwork zones - its hi-viz design will ensure that everyone sees it right away!
  
  
• Cleaning up a spill hazard? Prevent the public from slips and falls by erecting a barrier between them and the spill while you clean it up.

Our safety barrier has the words "DANGER - NO ENTRY" printed on each panel, and multiple barriers can be connected to form a single, extra-long barrier if necessary. Click here to see more information and purchase your safety barrier now!

If there's one quality that all height safety equipment should have, it's reliability. When you put on a safety harness or attach yourself to a fall arrest block, you're effectively entrusting your life to that bit of gear, so it's really not a good idea to skimp on quality.

With that in mind, we'd like to introduce the latest addition to SafetyLiftinGear's height safety range: Petzl Fall Protection & Rope Access Equipment! French manufacturers Petzl are among the most trusted in the industry, and the products we've sourced from them truly are the best of the best. Fall protection equipment doesn't get any more top-of-the-range than this!

Our Petzl collection is made up of many different products, including safety harnesses, headtorches, helmets, karabiners, tool bags, descenders, progress capture pulleys, and more. We also have a selection of fall protection gear for children, so if your little ones frequently engage in risky activities, you know who to call!

We sell a variety of lifting slings here at SafetyLiftinGear, but our polyester webbing slings are, without a doubt, our most popular range. Today, we're going to take an in-depth look at why that is.

Material

Polyester is the most common choice of material for lifting slings, and with good reason: it's flexible, it's lightweight, and yet it's capable of bearing exceptionally heavy loads without any difficulty whatsoever. It's also very shock-absorbent, which is good news if you don't want your goods to get damaged while they're being lifted and transported!

Cost

Our webbing slings are very cost-effective, starting from just £1.85 each (and that's including VAT!) The more heavy-duty slings are slightly dearer, of course, but no matter what kind of load you're lifting, you're guaranteed to get great value for money with our polyester slings.

Weight Capacity

Another reason for the popularity of our webbing slings is the fact that we really do have one for any task. Maximum weight capacity ranges from 1 tonne to 20 tonnes; better still, we also sell sling hooks, which are colour-coded to help you get the right hook for your webbing sling!

For example, both this sling and the matching hook are capable of lifting up to 1 tonne.

Last week, the SafetyLiftinGear team attended the ABTT Theatre Show at Alexandra Palace in London. We think it's safe to say that the event went terrifically well - not only did we meet lots of new clients and interesting people, we actually came away from Alexandra Palace with a new trophy for the SLG cabinet!

Our Duke DCH battery-powered chain hoist was chosen as ABTT's Widget of the Year 2015, which is an award for the most useful product at the show. The trophy we received is pictured above alongside the prize-winning hoist itself (thanks to Meg and Lucy for their modelling skills!)

Here's what the ABTT judges had to say about the Duke DCH:

"The judges were very impressed with this product, and expect to see them in numerous applications and in the hands of many technicians soon, especially considering the budget conscious price tag. The benefits of a lightweight battery-powered motor capable of lifting 250kg or 500kg are huge. This is exactly the type of tool that will help solve many of the problems that working technicians have to deal with daily, offering a safe way to haul without needing large power and control infrastructure."

We were thrilled to receive this award from the Association of British Theatre Technicians, and we hope that everyone else enjoyed this year's show as much as we did!
