The Amazing New Auto-Retractable Yo-Yo is no Wind-Up

Safety knife manufacturer, Moving Edge, now part of the globally renowned COBA International group, has launched a new auto-retractable yo-yo for attaching to safety knives and PPE equipment.   This follows the success of its flexible coil lanyard for safety knives.

Still in its prototype stage, the Moving Edge Auto-Retracting Yo Yo is proving to be a winning safety knife accessory through and through. It is the culmination of innovation and Moving Edge philosophy to listen to customers’ requirements in product development.

Trials of this safety knife yoyo have underlined its importance in terms of efficiency, productivity and cost-savings.

These impartial trials in areas such as distribution centres, warehouses and especially crossdock locations, provide positive feedback to the Moving Edge Safety Knife Yo Yo.

Moving Edge Safety knife Account Manager, Colin Fawdingon says, “We are delighted with out initial trials of the auto retractable yo-yo.  While being operator friendly and efficient, the yo-yos assist in reducing the amount of knives used over a period of time, therefore saving money and reducing waste.  The safety knife yo-yos are certainly invaluable to operators on the move, such as those personnel working in a dock environment or a fork lift truck driver for example.  Our trial results were significant – in fact safety knife usage was halved over a six week period.”

The new Moving Edge Auto-Retracting Yo Yo has been specifically developed to work with a range of PPE equipment, especially safety knives.  Both connecting ends use simple wide mouth D-clips, allowing the YoYo to be attached easily and quickly to both the user and the equipment.   The smooth, free-flowing cord has a reach of 750 mm and the yoyo itself is extremely compact and lightweight for operator comfort and ease of use.

The Moving Edge Yo-Yo will soon be widely available and is very competitively priced at £4.40 (RRP).
