Studson has released a series of accessories to better protect workers from the effects of cold temperatures and working in dark and loud environments, inluding a fleece skull cap, a telescoping headlamp, and an earplug garage attachment, all purpose-built for use with the Studson SHK-1 series of ANSI Z89.1 Type II safety helmets.
“Outdoor workers exposed to cold and windy conditions are at risk of cold stress, and they require effective clothing accessories that will enable them to stay comfortable, safe, and productive,” said Ryan Barnes, Studson CEO. “Providing warm headwear specifically designed for the SHK-1 safety helmet enables workers to mitigate the effects of cold stress without sacrificing the effectiveness of their safety helmet. For example, wearing a hood under a safety helmet may keep a worker warm, but it can reduce the effectiveness of a safety helmet during a slip, trip, or fall.”
Fleece helmet liner
Studson’s fleece helmet liner is designed to fit snugly under any version of the SHK-1 safety helmet. The 97 per cent polyester and three per cent elastane fleece-lined cap provides a soft, insulating layer to keep workers warm, productive, and focused on the job, even in the harshest conditions.
Telescoping headlamp
Designed for industrial athletes and workers, the Studson SHK-1 telescoping headlamp is a multifunctional headlamp adaptable to various job site environments, ensuring superior visibility and flexibility during any task. Compatible with both the Studson SHK-1 full brim helmet and Studson SHK-1 standard brim helmet, this headlamp is built to enhance productivity in low-light conditions.
Earplug garage
The Studson earplug garage provides a practical solution, keeping ear protection accessible and within reach. Designed to integrate with all Studson helmets, this earplug holder offers a secure, durable fit for various earplug types while maintaining a sleek and low-profile design. Made from Grivory, a tough glass-fibre reinforced nylon, the earplug garage is built to withstand demanding environments.
