The New Dragon Climber First Aid Kit
Important Extra’s For Tree Climbers
The need for a climber to have a first aid kit with them at all times is a strong recommendation of the HSE , but their standard recommended contents are not suitable for the types of injury climbers are likely to encounter.
The new Dragon first aid kit has been designed specifically for climbers and contains some important extras.
A standard wound dressing found in standard first aid kits is designed to be applied by a another person and is virtually impossible to apply correctly to your own arm. It has been replaced by a Traumafix bandage which is designed to be applied by yourself and it makes it easy to exert and maintain pressure on a large wound.
Eye irritation and injury is a common problem whilst climbing with saw dust etc blowing around visors and safety glasses. The Climbers kit includes a tube of sterile eye wash.
There is a whistle for attracting attention
Friction burns with ropes can occur and without a water supply it is impossible to take the heat out of a burn, the climbers first aid kit has a sachet of Reliburn which is a cooling burn gel. This will sooth the burn and absorb heat to help prevent blistering.

Yale LimeLite Climbing Rope
Yale LimeLite is a new 24-strand Climbing Line with a diameter of 11.7mm and an average tensile strength: 2950 lbs. LimeLite is a premium climbing line which has quickly become one of our most popular ropes. Its 11.7mm size is close enough to traditional 1/2" lines that footlockers have no problems hanging on. At the same time the slightly smaller size works well in most popular mechanical climbing devices. Lime Lite has a smaller size, less weight (96 g/m) but all the strength to climb with confidence. It also has better knotability as the internal core become quite firm when loaded and therefore behaves similar to traditional 16-strand line. It is available in 37 and 45 m hanks with or without a CE marked factory spliced eye.
LimeLite Climbing Rope with a Plain End and LimeLite Climbing Rope with an eye are available exlusively from Buxtons.
The Snow Is Coming, Get Ready For Winter!
Snow Blowers and Snow Shovels Available From Buxtons
Some parts of the UK have already had their first taste of this winter’s snows so you may have already had your first day of snow induced misery, if you were lucky then being prepared and having the right snow clearing equipment is becoming more and more important.
Buxtons have a range of snow blowers and shovels to help you to keep your disruption to a minimum. Keep your driveway clear and pathways safe with a combination of electric and petrol driven snow throwers or snow shovels.
Whether you choose the affordable and healthy option of a nice sturdy snow shovel or of you choose a snow thrower, we have the product for you.
Snow Throwers
Buxtons stock two types of snow throwers, namely one stage and two stage snow throwers.
The difference being that a singe stage thrower will use a single ‘impeller’ to scoop and force the snow out of a chute. A two stage machine will use two actions, one to scoop the snow and a second action to force the snow out the chute.
The difference to you is generally the type of snow that can be cleared and distance it can be sent from the chute.
The Stiga Snow Electric is a great affordable single stage electric snow thrower that is perfect for clearing paths where the snow isn’t too slushy or wet and hasn’t been walked on or compacted.
If you need an affordable petrol snow thrower then the Stiga Snow Rex Petrol Single Stage Snow Thrower is ideal for you. It has a 53cm width and is ideal for clearing larger areas like paths and driveways and of course, no need for extension cables.
If you need to clear compacted or wet snow or you have a larger area of snow then the Ariens ST22 Commercial Two Stage Petrol Snow Thrower is a good choice. It has a clearing width of 22 inches and a throwing distance of up to 40 feet. The deep winter tyres and bottom scraper gives the best possible finish even with compacted or slushy snow.
If you’re still not sure which of Buxtons Snow Thrower range is right for you then either give us a call on 01785 712 397 or pop into our large showroom on the A34 between Cannock and Stafford (Postcode ST19 5RP)
