Building on the huge success of its innovative, mix-and-match Tool Systems range, Carl Kammerling International - major supplier of quality tools for professional trades - has extended its 25-strong collection of ground-breaking C.K tools vests, belts, bags and totes with the introduction of four functional and extremely durable sets of knee pads.
This high quality, professional range, comprises two premium sets of Gel knee pads, both tested according to EN14404 and considered true safety devices; whilst the two sets of Foam knee pads in C.K tools’ specialised range have been designed specifically for comfort whilst kneeling.
The innovative C.K Gel Extreme Knee Pads feature a unique ribbed gel cushion with an integral air cell for maximum comfort and a puncture resistant layer for increased protection. The rugged all-terrain design provides both durability and increased stability whilst working on uneven surfaces, whilst the detachable, heavy-duty cap makes these groundbreaking knee pads ideal for both internal and external applications.
Where freedom of movement on the job is essential, the C.K Gel FreeStyle Knee Pads will provide great flexibility. Practical memory foam cushions with an internal air cell keeps knees fully protected, whilst large, smooth swivel caps allow for easy movement taking the pain out of prolonged installation work.
The C.K Pro-Shell Knee Pads feature a rigid Nylon shell with a large flat surface for essential stability when working on uneven and rough surfaces, whilst durable foam pads, with soft, breathable inner lining ensure complete comfort. For added convenience, twin elasticised straps with hook and loop fasteners provide the best possible fit for individual needs.
To reduce discomfort whilst kneeling the C.K Pro-Foam Knee Pads offer soft, thick, breathable inner padding under an extremely durable foam pad. Ideal for most internal applications and light outdoor work such as gardening, these comfortable pads also feature adjustable straps with hook and loop fasteners for the perfect fit.
In answer to tradesmen’s ailing knees, C.K tools has developed this hard-wearing range of knee pads in an attempt to help reduce the number of work-related musculoskeletal disorders, which accounted for 9.3 million lost working days during 2008/2009, a significantly high proportion of which came from the construction industry[i].
These robust knee pads join the full C.K Tool System range, which has been designed to work together as a ‘mix and match’ package for tradesmen to create their own personally designed tool system to suit their individual requirements.
Supporting Retailers
Stockists can also benefit from free eye-catching POS solutions, allowing them to prominently display the Knee Pads to encourage sell-through. The POS is completely flexible, allowing retailers to place the Knee Pads on the counter in full view of customers for incremental sales, or can be wall mounted to free up often limited counter space.
