Knee and body protection from Redbacks Cushioning

11 February 2020

Redbacks Cushioning, developer of award-winning, ‘Leaf-Spring’ cushioning technology offers products that help protect the knees and body from damage caused by kneeling.

The Redbacks Pocket Kneepad, designed to fit work trousers, features a flexible leaf-spring held within a thermoplastic honeycomb matrix which ensures a high compression rate and 100% recovery to its original shape. 

This combination and the inherent ‘memory’ aspect gives controlled weight distribution; the deceleration of pressure protects both the knees and body from potentially damaging impact forces and gives long lasting, anti-fatigue support. Redbacks says traditional foam or gel solutions create point-pressure which focus the force or energy to a point which is then transmitted back into the knee joint and beyond.

Easy to slide in, and curved to fit comfortably around the knee, the water-resistant pads conform to CE EN14404 Type 2 Level 1 and help to protect against possible injury from sharp objects, wick away sweat and provide  thermal protection from warm or cold surfaces. They are machine washable at 30°C and 100% recyclable.
