Polar Hood
The Polar Hood is specifically designed to be worn with earmuffs, which ensures optimal attenuation for workers exposed to cold climates who also require hearing protection. In typical earmuff-hood configurations, the hood is worn over the earmuffs, which compromises temperature protection, or under the earmuffs, which compromises hearing protection. The Polar Hood has patented side panels to eliminate gaps between the earcup and ear, keeping the wearer warm and allowing a proper acoustic seal. Its weatherproof design provides warmth and protection, making it suitable for use by workers in construction, the oil/gas/petrochemical industry, food production, and other personnel exposed to cold weather. A seal around the face prevents further exposure, and the adjustable design includes a front zipper for ventilation and a foldaway visor. Its bright-green trim enhances visibility and safety outdoors. The Polar Hood is available in small/medium and large/extra large sizes.

A900 Series safety eyewear and A900 reader magnifiers
The design of A900 Series safety eyewear and A900 reader magnifiers takes inspiration from the latest trends in sunglasses, providing lightweight frames and a comfortable fit at an affordable price. These eyewear lines meet two different needs — one is appropriate for everyday tasks, and the other provides increased magnification for such tasks as reading, close-up inspections, and fine-detail work. A900 Series eyewear offers side coverage, with wraparound, distortion-free polycarbonate lenses in clear, gray or silver-mirror tints. It features padded temple tips, a nose bridge made from nonslip material, and either the manufacturer’s Fog-ban anti-fog coating or a scratch-resistant hardcoat. A900 Series reader magnifiers offer 180-deg. field of vision, as well as high-impact, hardcoat and UV protection. Lenses may be clear or tinted gray, and can provide +1.5, +2.0 or +2.5 magnification.
