We have recently taken an enquiry from a new Father looking to baby proof his home.
Our recommendation was to use FR Handrail Protectors to cushion hard edges around the house that would cause potential danger to a toddler bumping into them. The product is self gripping so will stay securely on the edge to give peace of mind to new parents.

A recent trip to Watamu, Kenya by staff member Andy’s Parents has resulted in Protec offering to help some children.
Any much needed contributions will go towards helping what is a very poor school with some basic facilities.
The school doesn’t have any running water so the plan is to provide a tap and a small toilet.
A Big Thank You to everybody who can help this good cause.
