We are featuring products that can aid in common occurrences after disasters. Below are several of these occurrences and the products to help you navigate the challenges you may face.
Power Outages
Power outages are common, especially when natural disasters bring harsh weather near you. To help provide relief for outages, Kimball Midwest can supply you with lighting, batteries and extension cords.
The best heavy-duty lighting options in case of a power outage include the Heavy-Duty Industrial Flashlight and the 6 Volt Safety Lantern, which can float.
To keep your flashlights and other miscellaneous items powered, Kimball Midwest suggests the ProCell Alkaline, Rayovac Ultra Pro and Duracell Lantern Batteries in case of outages.
If you can have an additional power source to use on an as needed basis in case of an outage, extension cords are essential. The Kim-Cords are extreme extension cords providing you with extra length for connecting the power source to your equipment.
Cleanup
The cleanup process after a disaster can seem like a daunting task. Debris and damage need to be handled with care as a safety precaution. There are many cleanup products Kimball Midwest can provide to aid in time of disaster. These include brooms, trash bags and tape to start the cleanup process.
For larger debris and damage, pry bars, saw blades and other bladed tools might be needed to clear a space, and Kimball Midwest has you covered to tackle anything.
Once all the debris has been cleared, cleaning chemicals are needed to finish off the process. Kimball Midwest has an extensive list of cleanup chemicals to ensure your workspace can get back to production as quickly and safely as possible.
Personal Safety
Throughout the cleanup process, it’s important to make sure you are protected from any debris or other safety hazards after a disaster. Wearing the proper gloves, eye protection and a hard hat are essential. The Mil Nitrile Gloves, V-Maxx Safety Goggles and Yellow Ratcheting Suspension Hard Hat are perfect for personal safety against debris.
