U-Power introduces new Red-Up High-Rebound safety shoe

Sponsored content
Open-access content Monday 1st April 2019
From the archive:  Just so you know, this article is more than 3 years old.

U-Power Introduces New Red-Up High-Rebound Safety Shoe

Innovative technology has enabled the use of High Rebound Elastopan®, a new material from BASF, in the PU intersole of the Red-Up. This pioneering technology ensures a return of over 40% of energy to the wearer over the entire surface of the foot.

Energy is regenerated and given back to the wearer to ensure better performance over time. The high-rebound, affordable, RedUp is also extremely flexible and lightweight, reducing fatigue and improving both posture and productivity.

Perfectly suited to industrial areas, the RedUp shoe comes as ESD, and features Elastopan® memory foam insoles, which take the shape of the foot and improve weight distribution and relieve pressure points, as standard.

Three styles also feature the ground-breaking revolutionary Hypertex Putek® technology, a breathable and water-repellent material that is 20 times more abrasion-resistant than traditional materials.

The Red-Up range of 25 different styles boasts all the high-quality protective and safety features that come with a U-Power product, offering excellent shock absorption, an aluminium safety toe cap and a non-metal pierce-resistant midsole. In addition, the Red-Up's slip-resistance far exceeds the requirements of the European Standards.

U-Power's Managing Director, Stuart Thorne, said: "The blend of softness, comfort, lightness, breathability and protection of the Red-Up shoe, plus the return of so much energy to the wearer, ensures a feeling of total wellbeing. Tiredness and fatigue are diminished, posture is improved, and productivity in the workplace boosted."

 DriveWise reduces risk through better data assessment and training

Wednesday 3rd April 2019
A key aim for all fleet managers is minimising the number of incidents involving their drivers. Key to this is assessing their exposure or attitude to risk. Online driver assessments have been on the scene for a number of years. However it’s a time consuming business for both driver and assessor. And, with the best will in the world, there can be a tendency for the driver to provide the answer that they think will give them a better ‘score’.
