HAVS management

Posted on Friday 1 January 2010

A new addition to the Master Tool Services range is an effective, affordable vibration management system that targets personal protective equipment (PPE) for Hand Arm Vibration Syndrome (HAVS).

Master is a major UK distributor for Curotec Team, the manufacturer of this innovative system.

In the UK alone there are over 300,000 people reported as suffering from HAVS and two million at risk. As a result, litigation claims are on the increase. Curotec’s system has been developed to accurately collect and monitor vibration exposure levels, actively reducing the risk of contracting HAVS and identifying areas needing preventative action. With no known cure for the disease, the Curo can become a vital part of employees PPE, helping to prevent and protect them from HAVS.

The HSE regulations have forced the industry to re-evaluate the threat of over-exposure to vibration in order to keep its employees safe. As a result, the ‘Curo’ fits well into Master’s comprehensive range of services, complementing the HAV tool testing offer with an affordable, effective, easy-to-use vibration management system.

Master’s technical team can provide support, training and installation free of charge.
