Different work, different heat
Concrete radiates. Warehouses have no breeze. Highway crews can't leave the lane. Find the trade below for what's specified, what we'd put on the crew, and where ZIPPKOOL doesn't belong.
Road & Highway
Lane closures, night paving, and no shade in a work zone. Class 3 is specified for traffic-proximate work, and a shift can run past ten hours, longer than any ice pack lasts.
See Road & Highway →Construction
Concrete and steel soak up sun all morning and radiate it back all afternoon. Class 2 for most sites, Class 3 near traffic, worn over a full-body harness, with the dorsal D-ring passing through.

No sun, but no breeze either. Indoor heat builds through the shift with nowhere to vent, and the back dock is the assignment nobody wants. Class 2 covers most facilities.

Process heat doesn't stop when the weather cools. Airflow where the plant has none, with one rule: fans off near rotating machinery, and not for hot work or FR-required areas.
See Manufacturing →Landscaping & Grounds
Full sun, all day, moving between sites. No cooler on the truck and no outlet at the job, but a battery charged overnight covers the route.
See Landscaping & Grounds →Utilities & Energy
Long shifts at remote sites with no freezer for miles, so a spare battery beats a cooler. Check requirements first: ZIPPKOOL is not FR-rated and not intrinsically safe.
