P specialists Cooper Pegler are introducing padded straps to its Classic and Series 2000 models to heighten operator comfort and limit body strain during use .

Many of the go-to knapsack models across the popular brand include ergonomically tailored harnesses to channel loading forces in a way that limits stresses on the body .
The latest advance from manufacturer Hozelock-Exel , which follows extensive trialling , further enhances operator safety and protection to include cushioned strapping on Cooper Pegler ’ s Classic and Series 2000 knapsack models .
“ This is a global initiative ,” says Allan
Wainwright , Hozelock-Exel ’ s UK Sales Manager , “ which aims to make our knapsack brands fully inclusive for all spray operatives .”
The cushioned strapping is introduced at a time when more sports venues and amenity sites are reducing the quantity of treatment liquids they apply in a bid to improve their green credentials .
