PROFILE SYSTEMS Even as machinery and equipment has become so much more complex and sophisticated in recent years still the essence of “safe operation” remains largely unchanged and therefore the most basic solutions to ensure safe operation are also largely unchanged.


Sophisticated machine control systems with built- in safety features are there to minimise risk and catastrophic consequences of machine error and failure, yet little of this can replace the essential function that modular aluminium profile systems from MiniTec are able to provide.


MiniTec are able to provide a wide range of standard and customised machine safety enclosures – machine guards and cages which must fulfil two basic functions:


• To protect staff from getting to close to dangerous machine operations


• To ensure that the consequences of a machine malfunction that could result in components or machine parts flying off and injuring staff are minimised.


The robust German engineered aluminium profile system can be customised to meet almost any requirement. What is essentially an industrial meccano kit of parts can be designed and assembled to carefully enclose the machine


NEW RANGE OF LADIES’


REDLION SAFETY SHOES Building on the unprecedented success of its breakthrough RedLion safety footwear range, U-Power is proud to launch four brand new styles specifically designed to fit the shape and contours of a woman’s foot.


The shoes are made on special lasts that perfectly match the form of the female foot – which differs in many ways from the male foot – so ensuring perfect fit and all-day comfort for ladies; increasing their health and wellbeing.


The attractive and sporty shoes feature revolutionary new mid-soles with Infinergy, one of the most exciting developments in the safety footwear industry. Infinergy’s, patented technology returns over 55% of positive energy to the wearer by making the insert spring back into its original shape immediately after impact, so helping


and safeguard against the two principal objectives outlined above.


The machine guard or cage will not only consist of the protective surround but can also be enhanced with other safety features such as door interlocks to protect against accidental opening of access points whilst the machine is in operation. In addition it is quite common for signal lights to be deployed to give clear visual signals on the actual machine status – in operation or inactive for example.

to maintain the wearer’s energy for longer periods than a conventional shoe. The RedLion dramatically reduces stress, pressure, fatigue, backache and other musculoskeletal disorders thanks to this amazing insert.


Produced in a range of desirable colours, all four ‘RedLioness’ styles – the Verok, Cherry, Lolly and Candy – are made exclusively for women, and feature U-Power’s Airtoe aluminium toe cap, pierce-, oil and slip-resistant soles and a breathable foodtbed. Available in sizes 2 to 8 (35 to 42), Verok, Cherry and Lolly are rated S1P, while the leather Candy is rated S3 owing to its water resistance.


Stuart Thorne, U-Power’s Managing Director, said: “The RedLion range is showing sensational growth – over 200,000 pairs have been sold since its launch earlier this year, far exceeding U-Power’s expectations, thanks in part to its mid-sole using Infinergy®. More than 40 unique styles are now available, and more are in development in response to demand.


“The RedLion ladies’ range could be the largest selling ladies’ range ever in the world of safety shoes. It gives unprecedented comfort, styling and performance, and is the perfect fit and shape for ladies. All styles boast one of the best anti-slip soles ever produced, giving exceptional grip. They also have a defined heel, so they can be safely used on stepladders.


“RedLion is going from strength to strength with new models coming out all the time. Keep an eye out for them.”
