Why flexible foot protection?
With TENTE’s foot protection system, you can prevent workplace accidents and ensure maximum occupational safety. The special feature: The flexible rubber guards can be used even on uneven floors and ramps, allowing for smooth transport without interruptions.
Safety meets flexibility
- Prevents contusions: The flexible rubber guards compress inwards towards the wheel when they come into contact with a foot, providing reliable protection against injury.
- Overcomes uneven surfaces: Perfect for industrial environments – no snagging or blocking on grooves, ramps, or edges. Even raised manhole covers or tripping hazards at freight lifts are no longer a problem. Suitable for crossing ramps and barriers with an incline of up to 15°.
- All-round protection: The foot guard provides not only frontal but also lateral protection, also around the wheel axle. A side-mounted, rigid steel guide rail ensures the foot is safely guided past the wheel. Even the wheel axles no longer pose an injury risk.
- Reduced downtime and resulting costs: Foot injuries caused by wheels are among the most common workplace accidents. Our flexible foot guards significantly reduce this risk – and thus your downtime and associated costs.
Tailored to your application

- Also available pre-assembled: No additional assembly or adjustment needed.
