Abatement Hazards Protect against contact. During demolition or remodeling, workers may be exposed to a variety of hazardous substances including corrosive, reactive and toxic chemicals in the form of dusts, fumes, fibers/solids, liquids, mists, gases and vapors, asbestos or lead, toxic welding fumes, solvent vapors and silica dust. Liquid & Chem-Resistant Gloves Honeywell Safety Products offers a full line of chemicalresistant gloves that are available in many different styles and polymers, both supported and unsupported, many of which additionally provide protection against abrasion, cuts, tears and punctures. Respiratory Protection The level of exposure and the specific asbestos work to be performed determine the type of respirator needed. Honeywell is a leading manufacturer of one of the broadest lines of respiratory protection products: Disposable respirators Reusable air purifying respirators Gas and vapor cartridges Powered air purifying respirators Protective Clothing Disposable coveralls should be used when workers come in contact with asbestos or other hazardous substances or fibers/solids. Workers must wear their respirators until the contaminated clothing is removed, bagged and sealed for disposal.
Welding Safety Keep cool with superior heat protection. During welding, brazing or cutting operations, the following factors can contribute to excessive heat: UV exposure, infrared radiation, welded materials, work environment, weather To combat this heat, Honeywell offers basic worker protection, including: Heat-resistant face covering to provide protection from spatter and sparks Darkened lens to protect the eyes from intense light Free consultation, hazard analysis, compliance reviews and wearer training assistance help you select the right protective equipment, ensuring the maximum return on your welding safety investment.

Environmen Hi-Vis Clothing High visibility outerwear and other PPE products help locate workers in inclement weather and other low-visibility locations. Electrical & Arc Safety A serious workplace hazard. Electricity is the second leading cause of death in Construction. However, with the adoption of appropriate safety equipment and procedures, electrical injuries and fatalities can be prevented. Fire-Retardant, Hi-Vis Clothing When workers are exposed to an arc, fire-retardant and flame-resistant clothing reduces the severity of injury. FR clothing with reflective material increases conspicuity in low visibility situations. Lockout/Tagout Many accidents are caused by the unexpected energization (start-up) of machines or equipment, or by the uncontrolled release of energy. Accidents can be prevented by following proper lockout/ tagout procedures. Devices placed over an energyisolating mechanism, maintaining the safe position, prevent equipment from being set in motion.
Noise-induced Hearing Loss Whether operating equipment or merely within earshot, workers need protection against prolonged exposure to excessive noise levels. Along with being protected, workers also need to hear in these environments, remain aware of their surroundings, and be able to communicate clearly. Burn Care General-purpose or specialty kits include the supplies needed to protect burned skin from contaminants, fire blankets to help extinguish flames or smoldering materials, and gels and sprays for pain relief and protection from infection. tal Hazards Head protection, enhanced.

In an emergency, every second counts. For construction sites, Honeywell highly recommends that first-aid programs and kits go beyond the minimal requirements, by keeping a bulk restocking supply of first-aid materials in a cabinet at a central location such as a site trailer. A hazard and risk assessment performed at regular intervals will help identify and update the specific needs of each worksite, and help employers determine which reasonably anticipated supplies should be made available as project and environmental conditions change. Eyewash Stations Where a worker s eyes may be exposed to corrosive materials or chemicals the employer must provide suitable facilities for quick drenching or flushing of the eyes. The eyewash must be in accessible locations that require no more than 10 seconds to reach. For environments that are extremely cold or experience seasonal weather changes, our Fendall 2000 Heated Accessory is the first of its kind, offering an innovative solution to the challenges presented by workplace environments. First Aid Kits and Stations Available in a variety of hard, soft, waterproof, or wall-mounted cases, first aid kits are stocked with the products needed to address the hazards and number of employees at your work site.
