1. The "Three Point Balancing System" keeps the worker vertical (both in fall and retrieval situations). The fallen worker is kept in a straight up and down position rather than a slumped over position. Our competition's tie off D-rings are able to slip to the middle of the back causing a head first or slumped over position. This action alone could potentially prevent thousands of serious injuries and deaths each year.

 

 

2. There is a shorter fall distance while still complying with OSHA and ANSI standards. The competition's lanyards extend up to an additional 36 to 42 inches to the fall of a worker. That means our harness can stop a worker's fall up to 3.5 feet shorter in falling distance.

3. There is radically less Shock to the body and a significantly reduced hazardous slamming effect. Our harness achieves this through the absorption of downward inertia by the bungee Shock absorbers at the end of the fall.

 

So unique is this design, that the U.S. Patent office has approved patent application for copyright protection. Compared to the closest competitive product today, the Dennington Safety Harness is "State of the Art".

When incorporated into a comprehensive fall protection program, we are convinced that this product will significantly reduce the number and severity of worker compensation claims, reduce serious injuries and deaths, and save money in all types of industry. Besides the human and financial costs, federal requirements mandated by OSHA provide additional incentives for businesses to develop and implement fall protection programs.
