Lightweight kneepad
16 October 2014
A new knee pad for pocketed work trousers, which incorporates a ‘direction of force’ design that crucially protects the wearer’s knees and the rest of the body from the potential dangers of impact through continuous kneeling, has been introduced by Redbacks Cushioning.
The new kneepad is 20% lighter than its predecessor allowing greater ease of movement. A thicker grade of spacer fabric provides added comfort. The product also feature a soft and flexible TPE (Thermo Plastic Elastomer) leaf-spring, now with increased durability, which is set within a honeycomb matrix.
Redbacks knee protectors are ergonomically designed knee pads tuned with patented leaf spring technology. Scientifically proven to absorb impact and reduce shock on knees, back and neck, this design provides a ‘floating-on- air’ feel along with the highest level of protection and maximum comfort.
