products Safety has never been more comfortable Skellerup has taken comfort and performance to the next level with the introduction of the Quatro Non-Insulated Safety Gumboot. These new, fully-waterproof, hand-built rubber safety boots feature an ergonomic design which locks the foot in place, enhancing fit and preventing slippage, as well as an energy- absorbing heel and a cushioned rubber midsole (with arch support), quick- drying anti-bacterial lining and odour-resistant, moisture-wicking innersole. Although lightweight, these new boots are certified to the highest standards and specifications and come with a Quatro ComfortForm steel toecap, a penetration- resistant midsole and added protection across the forefoot. Skellerup, www.skellerup.co.nz, 0800 475 355 Weiss launches intelligent extractor fan Weiss has just launched the Intelli-Flow Bathroom Extraction System. Thanks to a humidity control function that constantly monitors the bathroom environment, the fan operates by itself as needed and even speeds up or slows down depending on humidity levels. The one model is suitable for most bathroom applications and is programmed to cope where both extra-low and extra-high airflows are required. The automatic Constant Trickle Extraction uses very little power, yet continually maintains air quality in the bathroom for a better bathroom experience. Installation only requires a power outlet in the ceiling cavity. Once installed and powered up, the system automatically calibrates and works out average humidity levels in the bathroom, extraction thereafter being fully automatic.
