Helmet – Your first line of defense

If you think a helmet is just an accessory to a uniform, think again. This is basic equipment that protects the head from falling objects, blows and injuries. Simply, it is necessary.

Safety glasses – See clearly, work safely

Dust, small parts and sparks can easily damage your eyes. That’s why safety glasses are a key part of the equipment. Seeing clearly means working more safely and efficiently. In addition, the glasses protect the eyes from UV radiation during outdoor work.

Hearing protection – Save your hearing

Construction machinery can be extremely noisy. Prolonged exposure to noise can permanently damage your hearing. Use earplugs or protective headphones to reduce the risk of hearing loss. Wear hearing protection and preserve your hearing to enjoy your favorite music after work.

Protective gloves – Protect your hands

Your hands are your most important tool. Protective gloves protect against cuts, burns and chemical substances. Whether you’re cutting, drilling or operating heavy machinery, always wear gloves.

Work shoes – Stability and protection

Quality work boots with protection protect your feet from injury. They provide you with stability on uneven terrain and protect against heavy objects that may fall on your foot.

Safety belt – Saves lives at height

Working at height is part of everyday life on construction sites. A seat belt can be the difference between life and death. Always strap in properly and check equipment before use.

SmartGuard – A revolution in protective equipment

Nobody wants downtime. As a professional, you know the risks and your responsibility to use the best protective equipment. If you really mean business, now you can take more control of it with SmartGuard – a range of equipment that helps you work more responsibly and efficiently.

Husqvarna is committed to helping operators take more responsibility for their safety, and SmartGuard is another important step.

The SmartGuard range is designed to give you more confidence and freedom to do what you do best. Take as much pride in your protection as you do in your work – like all professionals.

SmartGuard Helmet – Robust and lightweight

If you’ve ever experienced chainsaw kickback, you’ll know why you should wear a SmartGuard helmet. The special design and features are based on extensive expertise and knowledge in the development and production of electric saws. The helmet is robust but light and provides optimal protection and comfort.

SmartGuard Jacket

The SmartGuard jacket uses reinforced fabric to protect exposed areas. It allows you to maintain comfort and mobility, so you can work more efficiently.

The combination of high visibility and reinforcement contributes to your overall operational safety. For example, a worker in Kragujevac escaped injury when a broken part of the wall bounced against a reinforced jacket, providing him with protection and safety.

SmartGuard Blade Cover

The SmartGuard blade cover emphasizes proper technique and guides you to the right cutting zone. By covering the critical part of the rotating blade, it is less exposed and in the event of a cutter kickback, the risk of serious injury is reduced. Operators have reported reduced injuries and increased operational efficiency thanks to this innovative cover.

Together for safety

The mission of CP SRB PNEUMATIC is not only to give you provide the best Husqvarna machines and service, but also to ensure that every worker on the construction site is safe. The right protective equipment can save lives and prevent serious injuries.

Don’t skimp on your own safety – use the right equipment and follow all safety procedures.

Safety is not only the responsibility of employers, but also of every individual on the construction site. Become the hero of your workplace – wear protective equipment, be careful and protect yourself and your colleagues.
