ProKnee specialises in knee injury prevention

PROKNEE says it offers a full line of knee protection to suit all comfort levels with the Model 0714/0714E custom fit kneepad, the AP16 all-purpose kneepad and newest to the lineup, the ProKnee Bomber Pad. Each offers varying degrees of protection that relate to the amount of time the user is on their knees, it adds.

‘The Model 0714/0714E custom fit kneepad is backed by an industry-leading 11 patents and offers unmatched benefits with its shin support system that spreads weight across the length of the shins.

‘This even weight distribution creates a center of balance at the midpoint of the shins (rather than directly on the knees), which reduces pressure on the knee joint and forces the wearer to use proper kneeling techniques that reconditions, and preserves worn out knees.

‘Additionally, this kneepad model comes in 18 lengths and two knee seat widths (standard and wide) to provide the wearer with a personalised fit that offers optimal comfort and performance. Typically the Model 0714 with 1in cushions is used by flooring installers or other tradesmen that are either: on their knees for more than eight hours a day, have existing knee problems or have undergone knee surgery, weigh more than 90kg or who seek the maximum protection ProKnee brand kneepads has to offer.’

The company continues: ‘The AP16 All Purpose kneepad was created for DIYers and fitters looking for a more compact kneepad that still offers superior protection, comfort and longevity. The AP16 holds up to daily six-to-eight hour use and stays true to ProKnee’s fit, form and function principles by utilising the same iconic knee pocket shape and flat bottom design that the 0714 utilises.

‘These features help support the meniscus by stabilising the area around the knee joint from excessive movement as weight is applied, which reduces joint wear-out and knee burn pain: the key to happy, healthy knees. Like the 0714, molded in frame components make replacing parts easy, fast and economical as all parts are completely replaceable to extend the life of your pads.’

Unlike the 0714 and AP16 kneepads, the Bomber Pad offers standard untethered protection for easy mobility without the bulk of a full kneepad, says ProKnee. ‘Made from the same top-grade cushion and liner materials as used on the 0714 and AP16 kneepads, the ProKnee Bomber Pad is a great strapless option when it comes to knee protection. ProKnee’s cushions offer consistent compression spring-back, which enable it to perform like new for years, rather than a few short months, while absorbing shock out of day-to-day wear and tear from kneeling.’

Concludes the company: ‘So no matter what your knees’ needs are, ProKnee has them covered with their full range of knee protection from fully supported ergonomic integration to light weight drop and go function.
