Hand Warmers: Take the Warmth With You

It is cold in most parts of the U.S. Some areas of the country are more susceptible to severe cold weather than others. Also, some types of outdoor jobs require extra effort to stay warm. These areas include wilderness, parks and forest services, conservation and environmental industry, construction, petroleum and chemical industry, meatpacking, fishing and fish processing, and farming.

Are you working long hours outside? We recommend wearing gloves, hats, and jackets specifically designed for cold weather to protect yourself from frostbite. What if you have all this clothing on, but are still freezing? Consider getting express warming heat packs! What are these little inserts for? If you activate them and put them into your gloves or shoes you will get an instant warming effect for at least 8 hours! Here are a few suggestions: PIP Heat Packs and Occunomix Hot Rods. Their technical characteristics are very similar and they both work wonders by making your hands and feet warm again in a matter of minutes. They come conveniently packed and are easy-to-activate.
