ERGODYNE ADDS CANVAS PRODUCTS TO ITS ARSENAL® LINE
ST. PAUL, Minn. (February 12, 2008)—Ergodyne today announces the addition of canvas tool and equipment bags, canvas bags and accessories, lineman buckets, aprons and pouches to its Arsenal® equipment storage systems line. Ergodyne first introduced the Arsenal tool storage line in fall 2006 offering synthetic then leather tool belts, tool bags and accessories.
“Forget the year of the rat. Ergodyne’s declared 2008 the year of canvas,” said Tom Votel, president and CEO, Ergodyne. “Adding this full line of tough-as-nails canvas organization products rounds out our soft-sided tool storage collection. And I think it’s a great example of Ergodyne’s ability to constantly innovate and deliver safety, style and performance to workers.”
Traditionally used by masons, concrete workers, electrical linemen and others, canvas tool and equipment bags are becoming must-haves across many job sites. From the bottom of their leather bases to the top of their rugged handles and straps, Ergodyne’s canvas tool and equipment bag series includes small, medium, large and long leather-bottom bags made of heavy-duty 16 oz. canvas with steel frame mouths, interior pockets, leather straps with buckles, and shoulder straps. Also included in this series are more traditional masonry bags in small, medium, large and long sizes. Perfect for organizing tools of any size, these bags are made of 16 oz. canvas with a strong PVC/synthetic leather bottom, steel frame mouths, leather straps with buckles and stitched/riveted leather handles.
Canvas Bags and Accessories
Ideal for workers at elevated heights, the Arsenal canvas bags are equipped with the strength and performance features workers demand, like rugged 18 oz. canvas exteriors, leather reinforced stress points, heavy-gauge bionic stitch work, molded plastic base and top rings.
The tripod rope-handled buckets provide even further stability with rope handles and nickel-plated swivel snaps for safe transport. Unique to the Ergodyne canvas line are the 22-, 14- and 13-pocket oval bucket bags with handles and the canvas tool and wrench roll-up accessories, which provide workers an extra level of organization. Other canvas accessories include glove bags, aerial hooks and zipper bags.
Canvas Lineman Bucket Series
Designed to handle heavy loads, the Arsenal canvas lineman buckets are made of heavy-duty 18 or 20 oz. canvas, include super-tough leather- or molded plastic-reinforced bases and rugged woven rope handles. Ready to pull their weight and last over the long haul, the bucket series incorporates strategically placed leather accents at key stress points, nickel-plated, abrasion- and corrosion-resistant hardware, and six- and twelve-ply nylon stitching. Options in this line include high or wide tops, multiple sizes and varying interior pocket configurations.
The Arsenal canvas tripod rope-handled buckets and the lineman buckets ensure aerial workers keep both hands free and both feet free, allowing for at least three points of contact while ascending or descending ladders. Workers are able to keep both eyes – and one hand – on their work, important for elevated, intricate jobs where grip is critical.
Canvas Apron and Pouch Series
This highly detailed, heavy-duty canvas apron and pouch series includes a number of nut and bolt pouches with varying interior and exterior pocket options. Strap or loop attachment configurations allow attachment to fall protection devices or to tool rigs. Models include an electrode pouch; heavy-duty, canvas split-leather reinforced waist apron; and economy canvas waist apron.
