![]() The 29th International Safety and Health Exhibition New products and technologies in the field of safety and health 'in one place' LED-applied mobile band, tarpaulin-EVA parking lot protector, various applications 2011/08 The latest safety products such as special gloves to protect hands from sharp objects such as knives and glass shards, industrial field breathalyzer, and multifunctional safety surveillance camera with telescope, digital camera, and camcorder were gathered together. The 29th Korea International Safety & Health Show (KISS 2011), hosted by the Korea Occupational Safety and Health Agency and organized by the Korea Protective Equipment Association, was held at the COEX Exhibition Center in Samseong-dong, Seoul, from April 4 to 7 last month. KISS is the largest and most comprehensive safety and health product exhibition in Korea, showcasing personal protective equipment (PPE) that protects workers' safety, as well as new technologies and products necessary for accident prevention in various fields such as firefighting, transportation, electricity, gas, living and working environment improvement. This year's exhibition, which was slightly smaller in scale, featured more than 150 exhibitors from 15 countries, including the United States, Japan, and Germany, showcasing nearly 10,000 pieces of the latest safety and health equipment and products. "We hope that this exhibition, which includes the latest products and devices related to safety and health in Korea, will provide useful information to the general public and serve as a meaningful venue to help promote industrial site safety and worker health," said an official from the complex. The following parking-related products participated in the exhibition Youngshin Safety, H-beam Corner Protector Youngshin Safety Trading Company, which specializes in manufacturing and selling construction materials and safety materials, has been handling safety facilities and materials for construction sites since its establishment in 1999. In order to protect the safety of workers from safety accidents caused by the increasing number of industrial accidents, the company developed and launched the H-beam corner protector in earnest. The H-beam corner protector (Utility Model Patent No. 20-0446548), unlike existing beam protectors, is made with a built-in super-strong magnet for easy installation. The shock-absorbing foam and 3m high-brightness reflective band provide excellent stability, and it is a shock-absorbing protector that ensures visibility even at night or in underground roads and prevents workers from unknowingly bumping into each other while working. It can be used for various purposes such as head protection and corner protection by changing the attachment method with foam backs. An official from Youngshin Safety & Trading said, "We made the fabric ourselves with a design that contrasts the black and yellow complementary colors often used in road traffic as a tarpaulin." "It is highly visible and has good cushion absorption, so it is used a lot at construction sites." Currently, it is installed at GS E&C's 917 subway site, Hyundai E&C's Ahn Cheol-soo Research Center construction site, and Daewoo E&C's Purgeo site in Geokseok-dong. Korea Top Safety, LED identification bands Ltd. (CEO Kim Tae-woon), which provides one-stop service from design to production and installation of safety facilities at construction sites, has launched a new product, 'LED identification band for seat belts' and 'safety LED tarpaulin', and is starting full-scale production. Previously, workers wore seat belts and reflective vests to be easily identified from a distance when working at night. However, it was too hot in summer and too cumbersome to wear over thick clothes in winter, so workers often did not wear them. Kim Tae-woon, CEO of Korea Top Safety, set out to develop safety products based on this, and acquired an item called a portable device from an LED company he visited by chance. After deciding on the application area as a seat belt that matches the eye level of a person, he began full-scale development and completed it in April. The LED identification band for seat belts is a tarpaulin that is illuminated by LEDs, making it highly visible. At night, you can check the status of the worker from 1 kilometer away. If the light stops, they can go to the work site to retrieve a discarded belt or rescue a fallen coworker. It is used at Incheon Subway, Wuyi New Light Rail, underground apartment sites, and nighttime work sites. The battery life is more than 1,500 hours, and the company is currently developing a product that can be used without a battery. "As the market for safety facilities continues to grow, we are busy working as a small business," said Kim, "but we want to continue to develop new products for safety facilities and contribute to a safer country." Charmstech, Parking Lot Corner Protector 'Pillagard' Charmtech (CEO Moon Sung-in) has introduced a parking lot corner protector brand 'Pillar Guard'. Compared to existing parking lot protectors, Pillar Guard has better shock absorption, easy construction, and non-toxicity, so it can be applied to other sites. To do this, the company used a newly developed thick and soft EVA (Ethylene Vinyl Acetate Copolymer, a material made from Ethylene and Vinyl Acetate (VA) and manufactured under high pressure of over 2,500 atmospheres) resin. The EVA resin is flexible and has high impact strength to protect the posts, vehicles, drivers, and pedestrians, and it is resistant to scratching the paintwork when a vehicle drives over the posts, so it can retain its shape after dozens of impacts. Therefore, Pillagard is a breakthrough product that goes beyond the concept of protecting the corners of columns in parking lots or buildings, preserving the value of the building and bringing safety and satisfaction to users. Various high-visibility colors can be applied to transform the dull parking lot atmosphere into a bright and fresh living space, and it can be washed with water to maintain cleanliness. In addition, it can be used to advertise the brand of the construction company and construction company, or insert photos and text according to the needs of the installation site. In addition to parking lots, it can also be installed in escalators, gymnasiums, kindergartens, industrial sites, and advertisements, and can indicate the name of the parking lot or building, the number of floors, and the designated number of the parking lot. And because silicone is used to attach to the pillars, it can be constructed without damaging the building. Especially for H-beams, the hard plastic is bonded inside and is removable, so construction is completed by simply inserting it without attachment bonds. |
