Vibrotect™ was coined following a HAVS diagnosis in a family member who had spent their career working with vibrating tools. When searching for ways to manage the condition, he was unable to find a suitable solution that worked for him and could be applied in his workplace. Determined to make a difference, we developed Vibrotect™ - an innovative safety device designed to reduce the risk of Hand-Arm Vibration Syndrome (HAVS). Vibrotect™ aims to protect workers and improve workplace well-being, ensuring that no one has to compromise their health for their job.
Hand-Arm Vibration Syndrome (HAVS), commonly referred to as Vibration White Finger, is an irreversible condition which arises in the fingers and hands of individuals who are regularly exposed to vibrations from equipment and machinery.
The individual may experience tingling and a lack of strength in their fingers over time and in colder weather the fingertips will begin to turn white. If not acted upon, these symptoms will gradually deteriorate with the fingers turning blue, and in extreme cases a total loss of grip strength in the hands. Once the damage is done, it‘s permanent.
Here at Vibrotect™, we can provide you with a user-friendly vibration monitoring system, that can be seamlessly integrated into your workplace, keeping both you and your workforce safe from the effects of HAVS.
