What Are The Main Causes of Injury for Construction Workers? 

Mar 4 2023

By nature of the activities involved on a construction site, construction workers are one of the highest risk groups of workers for injury, illness, or fatality due to their workplace environment.

However, it is not only the physical elements that can play a part in these statistics but also the mental strain and emotional factors involved in working on a busy construction site.

Creating a safe working environment for construction workers is much more complex than just providing PPE or workwear for operatives to undertake the tasks at hand.

In order to do this, let’s take a look at some of the individual measures in place to grow these partnerships:

What Does Good Quality Mean?

Sep 7 2022

The term “good quality” is used regularly in the safety market, especially when talking about hand protection. 

But what does it actually mean?

What Do The Colours Red & Green Mean To Us?

Jul 27 2022

RED and GREEN are universally recognised as the 2 main colours for traffic control on our highways and road systems - both throughout this country, and also the rest of the world.

That means that it's very easy and intuitive for drivers to recognise RED as STOP and GREEN as GO. That’s why we chose them when designing the Stop'N'Go range.

Auditory vs. Visual Communication

Jul 20 2022

As humans we developed and use a variety of different ways of communicating with each other and understanding what another is trying to say. 

Two of the main ways we communicate is auditory and visual. At Stop'N'Go these are the methods we’re most interested in, they’re the primary choices when directing traffic, vehicles and pedestrians on your sites or involved with your operations. 

What Are We Working On?

At Stop'N'Go we love developing new products to fit in our range of high-quality gloves. 

Developing and growing the Stop'N'Go range is central to providing our customers with the best protection they need and to introduce clearer communication to as many sectors and organisations as possible.

Unfortunately, the same pressures are affecting the safety market. In this blog post we take a look at why we have had to review our prices for 2022.
