Tingley Rubber had an awesome time at Safety 2018. They brought their latest innovations in safety with them, including their high performance personal protective equipment products. Among the displays in their booth was a "boot cake" showcasing their comprehensive line of protective footwear in a variety of materials to suit your safety requirements. Their latest boot offerings include improved Premier G2 and Profile brand PVC knee boots, as well as their Boot Saver disposable shoe covers. Safety 2018 attendees saw how stretchy and flexible Boot Savers are when they were stretched over the Tingley mannequin's head!
Tingley also displayed a variety of pieces from their SYNC System, which lets you mix and match between Workreation and Job Sight jacket pieces, allowing you to wear a high visibility shell to work and unzip it to wear your regular outerwear when you leave the job.
