Ergonomic Safety Tools that are Cleaner, Healthier, and Safer

Turtle Plastics products are designed for ergonomics and injury prevention in fire/rescue and industrial settings. Our products save lives, reduce injuries, and create a cleaner, healthier, safer work environment:

  • Dura Crib® Cribbing & Blocking: Interlocking façade cribbing blocks and pads such as the Slab® and Slab Pad. This brand of products are designed as stabilizing “active loads” for safely working around and under equipment and proper lock out tag out of hazardous energy created by pneumatic or hydraulic tools or even the energy created by gravity when lifting – the safer alternative to wood.
  • Dura Stat®: Smooth profile products are desired for “static” loads and are not intended with any stacking/cribbing capabilities. Examples include the Turtle Trax®, portable rail crossings and the Turtle Tube Gen 2 Grain Rescue Sleeve®.
  • Dura Blend Lumber™:  Engineered, smooth surface blocks used for single-layer applications -never use as cribbing any “active load” and are recommended only for indoor/outdoor material storage or holding up small items such as batteries off the floor. Our most popular product is the Frame Master- material storage solution.
  • Fire & Rescue Kits:  Engine kits with a variety of Dura Crib®/Dura Stat® brand of products are designed for task and space efficiency while promoting quicker, safer vehicle stabilizing during rescue and extrication.
  • Industrial Equipment Kits: Dura Crib®/Dura Stat® component kits are assembled for maximum task requirements during repair and maintenance of industrial vehicles and equipment. We even have Fleet Maintenance Kits for fire apparatus equipment.
  • Turtle Tile® Flooring & Matting: Ergonomic, anti-fatigue safety mats for commercial, rescue, and industrial use; the original cushion tile, made in the USA and odor-free.
