Safe Light - High Visibility Waistcoat DLT08 meets EN471

UK Euro Partner is pleased to confirm the advanced High Visibility Waistcoat designed by Safe Light of Switzerland, and as mentioned in our article on 03 June 2008, has been fully tested and approved by SATRA giving it the certification of EN471:2003 class 2. This makes the Safe Light High Visibility Waistcoat probably the most advance visible safety product on the market.

Dual Light Technology DLT08 is based on logic. The standard High Visibility Waistcoat is only truly visible at night when an external light source is available. Take this away and the waistcoats visibility is negligible. The logic; do not wait for an external light source, create your own. This is exactly what Safe Light has done using an insert in the rear of the waistcoat to insert a Safe Light Pod. The Pod device is warranted to illuminate for up to 8 hours and has the benefit of using no batteries or bulbs, is non-toxic, shockproof and water proof.

The new Dual Light Technology DLT08 means improved safety whether at the road side or working on a building site or industrial production. An added benefit of the technology is that non-luminous inserts can be downloaded direct from www.uk-euro-partner.co.uk site, these inserts allowing identification of the wearer at a distance. The wearer really can be seen and be safe!

Safe Light - Fire Marshals come to town

Two of UK Euro Partners leading executives completed their Fire Marshal training course this week. Putting aside other work and issues both men agreed it was sensible and logical for them to be trained as Fire Marshals so understanding better the needs of clients under pressure.

It became clear during the course, run under Fire Protection Association guidelines, that the Fire Marshal Kit is a particularly relevent product for this market sector. However as a result of the questions raised during the course and forwarded back to Safe Light research, it is now likely the Fire Marshal Kit will be upgraded with a Red Fire Marshal Baseball Cap with the rear insert for the Pod Bright and labeled at the front with the words Fire Marshal. This means that the Fire Marshal will become more visible more easily to more people. Including the Pod Bright means the increased visibility is continued in the dark.

Ensuring the rapid exit of people in a controlled manner constitutes part of the anti-panic programme. The simple Fire Marshal Kit gives people an immediate sense of authority, in turn helping to drive down the stress of fear and panic. This really is the essence of Personal Protection Equipment.

Safe Light - UKEP accredited to British Safety Council

UK Euro Partner the Safe Light distributor has been accredited to membership of the British Safety Council. This is further recognition of UKEP's commitment to progressing the quality and efficieny of its safety programmes.
UKEP is preparing a set of instructional courses to be presented to BSC for review and approval prior to releasing the Safety Instruction Programme for general use. The purpose of the review is to ensure the method and content of the SIP meet with BSC standards.
The courses will include instruction and guidelines for how, where and why to use visibility equipment when at work or travelling; an introduction to the D-CAT:2007 system, alcohol breath test. Companies and individuals desiring to book a place on one of the new courses will be able to do so probably after October 2008.
