Hey! They like PIG® Sheet!

I’m talking about the independent judges who chose the 2010 New Products of the Year for Occupational Health & Safety Magazine.This second annual contest attracted a new high of 42 products in 17 award categories.

“Our New Product of the Year contest recognizes innovation, quality, and excellence in customer service by many leading manufacturers in the safety and health industry” said OH & S Editor Jerry Laws

Yeah, baby! We’re honored.

Here’s more info about our latest award winner:

PIG® Sheet allows a user to form custom liquid control and containment devices for areas where space is awkward or limiting. The steel mesh core is coated with pliable PVC that can be reshaped without cracking to provide the moldability of metal and the corrosion resistance of plastic. PIG® Sheet can attach to magnets for connection to metal surfaces.

Yuck. Roof leaks dumped salty, rusty water onto classic cars at a recent major exhibition.

I feel bad for everyone involved:

• Car owners who spend countless hours and dollars restoring and detailing their cars
• Show sponsors and managers who had to cope with an ugly situation: disgruntled exhibitors, attendees, bad word-of-mouth …
• Maintenance staff at the aging facility, who apparently face challenging limits
• Local officials who come from different perspectives on what steps to take

But I also need to put on my company hat and say: PIG® Leak Diverters might come in really handy here. They’re specifically designed to catch and divert water from roof leaks to drains or out-of-the-way collection units. They’re not tarps that will overflow (as seems to have happened here); they don’t let water pool. They’re guaranteed to keep leaking liquids away from floors, fixtures, products and classic cars.
