FIRE SAFETY STICK
The Fire Safety Stick – fire extinguishing device, is a simple and easy way to ensure that you are prepared in the event of a fire in your home, vehicle, caravan, or boat.
It weighs far less than a conventional fire extinguisher and can operate for much longer, is suitable for all fire types. And best of all, there is NO residue left behind after use.
Environmentally friendly and can safely be stored for easy access in an emergency. The Fire Safety Stick will help you to contain a fire, preventing it from becoming a threat to life or property. In fact, for enclosed fires (eg. within a caravan) you can activate the Fire Safety Stick, leave it inside to extinguish the fire, as you get out to safety.
Unlike any other conventional extinguisher, it needs no servicing, refilling, checks or maintenance and has no expiry date. No danger from pressurised containers which can explode or malfunction. Store the Fire Safety Stick in an easily accessible place. Strike the activator, point the nozzle at the base of the flames to smother the fire at its core.
Combining Woodway’s trusted name as a long-established supplier, and the long list of features and benefits of the Fire Stick it makes it the perfect combination in delivering the future of fire extinguishers to the Emergency Services Sector.
WHEELY SAFE
Wheely-Safe is a multi-award-winning suite of products for fleets, telematics providers and vehicle manufacturers. It combines the world’s first in-motion wheel loss detection system with advanced brake/hub temperature monitoring and an intelligent TPMS which is recognised by the DVSA.
Wheely-Safe provides an early warning system to notify you and your drivers immediately to Loosening Wheel Nuts, Brake & Hub Overheating, Tyre Underinflation, Rapid Pressure Loss and High Tyre Temperatures.
The detection system is unlike anything else on the market and is revolutionising how the commercial vehicle industry protects itself against the dangers of wheel loss, whether due to human or mechanical error. Uniquely, alerts are provided to loosening wheel nuts as the vehicle is in motion.
The TPMS is suitable for tyre inflation pressures up to 188psi – making them perfect for all vehicle types up to including any bus, coach, truck, or trailer.
Not only does this clever system speed up fleet inspections for workshop technicians or drivers, providing access to accurate tyre pressure readings in either Bar or PSI when held next to any Wheely-Safe TPMS sensor. All this, without the hassle of connecting a pressure gauge to the valve.
Woodway are excited to be appointed as the distributor for Wheely-Safe products within the Emergency Services Sector.
