HOT NEW PRODUCTS - Editor's Choice
360° Static Discharge and Cleaning for Moving Surfaces
CINCINNATI, OH: EXAIR's new Super Ion Air Wipe provides a uniform 360° ionized airstream that clamps around a continuously moving part to eliminate static electricity and contaminants. It is ideal for removing dust, particulates and shocks on pipe, cable, extruded shapes, hose, wire and more.
The Super Ion Air Wipe uses a small amount of compressed air to entrain high volumes of room air. Two shockless ionizing points powered by a UL Listed 5kV power supply fills the airstream with static eliminating ions. That airflow attaches itself to the surface of the material running through the air wipe and is effective for many feet away from where it is mounted. The force of the wiping action can be controlled with an optional pressure regulator. 5 PSIG will produce effective static neutralization. Higher pressure produces a more forceful wiping action and is most effective for high speed processes and over long distances. --- EXAIR Corp.

Recycled Glass Shows Floors in A Whole New Light
MAPLE SHADE, NJ: Recycled glass aggregate forms the base of Stonhard's Stonclad GR flooring system. When mixed with an epoxy resin, amine curing agent and rapidly renewable, soy-based additives, the result is a long-lasting, seamless, easy to maintain, abrasion, chemical and wear resistant floor that is suitable for application in various settings, including manufacturing, food and beverage, retail, educational and public spaces. Because it incorporates both recycled and rapidly renewable materials, Stonclad GR can help projects accumulate points as they pursue LEED certification. Twelve standard colors and the option for custom shades expand the limits of design possibility. And, the Stonclad GR system can be further customized, with coatings, waterproofing, cove bases and fiberglass reinforcement, to meet the specific needs of each application. --- Stonhard

U.S. Workers Taking Chances with Safety by not Wearing PPE
U.S. workers are risking workplace injuries by not complying with important safety procedures, according to a survey by Kimberly-Clark Professional. The survey found that 89 percent of safety professionals polled at the 2008 National Safety Council (NSC) Congress have observed workers failing to wear personal protective equipment (PPE) when they should have been. "We find it disheartening that people continue to put themselves at risk by failing to wear PPE when undertaking hazardous tasks," said Randy Kates, general manager of the safety business for Kimberly-Clark Professional. "Despite the importance of PPE, there is still an unacceptably high rate of noncompliance in the workplace." This is the third consecutive year that the Kimberly-Clark survey has revealed a high rate of PPE noncompliance. In 2007, 87 percent of respondents said they had observed PPE noncompliance in the workplace, while 85 percent answered yes to this question in 2006.
