Durable marker poles

Imhotep has launched the Visibilistix range of marker poles. They are constructed from a thermoplastic composite with fibreglass reinforcement. The outer coating is welded to the core, which the Nottingham-based firm says prevents splinters and adds durability. The markers, which cost from 27p each, incorporate ultraviolet stabilisers to reduce colour fade. They are available in 8 mm and 10 mm diameters, and range from 0.5 m to 2.4 m in length. Custom-made markers of different lengths are also available, as are fluorescent, glow-in-the-dark and heat-sensitive options.

Infrared hand basin

Relcross has launched an infrared hand basin that is powered by photovoltaic cells. The 鈥渘dite technology鈥� range of handwashing units uses the cells to convert the available light in a room into electricity. This means that the basin鈥檚 infrared sensors need neither mains nor battery power to operate. The units are made from Terreon, a polyester blend that Relcross says resembles marble. The firm says the material is easy to clean and inexpensive to repair.

Safer warehouse lights

Parmer Distribution has upgraded its range of Hilux High Bay light fittings for warehouse and factory units. The double-envelope lamp designs mean the light can be handled before the bulb is completely cool. It also bypasses the need for a protective glass screen, as the lamp will contain any breakages. The lights are suitable for indoor applications where the ceiling height exceeds 15 ft. They are available at 400 W and 250 W.
