June is National Safety Month, and there is no better time to focus on protecting yourself and your crew on the job site. Whether you're framing houses, pouring concrete, or handling daily maintenance work, safety should always be a top priority. At AWP, we believe safety is more than just compliance, it's about staying productive, efficient, and protected day in and day out.
Professionals know that small details make a big difference when it comes to job site safety. The right gear doesn't just help you work smarter, it helps you stay safe. AWP Gear is built with safety, durability, and performance in mind, and this month we're highlighting three product categories that can seriously upgrade your on-site protection: knee pads, work gloves, and TrapJaw storage solutions.
Protect Your Knees:Â
If your job requires frequent kneeling, whether it's laying flooring, working with low framing, or handling installations, your knees take the brunt of the impact. Over time, that constant pressure can lead to joint damage, chronic pain, and missed days on the job.
AWP knee pads are engineered for serious protection and comfort. Designed with professionals in mind, our knee pads feature gel/foam padding and durable outer shells that absorb impact and keep you comfortable through long shifts.
Why Knee Pads Matter for Safety:
- Reduce long-term wear and injury to joints
- Prevent puncture wounds and abrasions from rough surfaces
- Improve balance and stability while kneeling
Don't underestimate the toll that daily kneeling can take. Investing in high-quality knee protection is a simple and effective way to protect your body.
Keep Your Hands Covered:
Your hands are your most valuable tools on the job site. Whether you're cutting, lifting, hammering, or hauling, a hand injury can shut you down fast. Gloves are your first line of defense.
AWP work gloves are built to take a beating while keeping your hands safe. From heavy-duty impact protection to cut-resistant materials, our gloves are made to meet the real-world demands of tradespeople. They offer durability without sacrificing flexibility, so you never lose grip or dexterity while on the job.
How AWP Gloves Support Safety:
- Protect from cuts, abrasions, and impact injuries
- Maintain grip in wet or oily conditions
- Enhance dexterity for precision work
Wearing the right gloves doesn't just reduce the risk of injury, it helps you do your job more confidently and effectively.
Stay Organized and Focused:
Jobsite safety isn't just about PPE. Clutter, misplaced tools, and constant bending or searching for gear can create tripping hazards and distractions that lead to injury. That's where AWP TrapJaw Tool Storage solutions come in.
From pouches to full tool rigs, TrapJaw products are designed with a patented spring-loaded mechanism that keeps pockets open when you need them and snapped shut when you don't. That means faster access to your tools and less time searching.
Why Organization = Safety
- Reduce trip hazards by keeping tools off the ground
- Minizime time spent searching for gear
- Maintain better posture and reduce strain
With TrapJaw™, your tools stay exactly where you need them, when you need them. It’s a better way to work, and a safer one, too.
Make Safety a Daily HabitÂ
National Safety Month is a great reminder, but safety isn’t a once-a-year checklist—it’s a mindset. Every time you gear up with the right equipment, every time you stay organized, every time you protect your knees and hands, you’re investing in your future as a professional.
At AWP, we’re proud to support the pros who build, maintain, and power our world. Our gear is designed to stand up to real job site demands because when it comes to safety, there’s no room to cut corners.
This June, take a moment to evaluate your gear. Replace worn-out gloves, upgrade your knee protection, and get your tool storage dialed in. A safer job site starts with the right tools, and AWP has you covered.
