PIP Cooling towelSince Summer has arrived, heat protection must be on the forefront of workers’ minds. Succumbing to heat stress or exhaustion can happen quickly, so it is important for workers to be ahead of the curve with the right cooling accessories.

United Tool and Fastener offers a myriad of accessories to keep workers from succumbing to heat while working in hot environments such as construction, automotive, mining, farming, medical, emergency services, food service, oil rigging, and industrial sites or attending sporting events.

EZ-Cool® Evaporative Cooling Neck Wrap is part of a series of cooling accessories by PIP to help protect workers from heat stress.
