Tradies buddy up with bucket business

Tradesmen often find themselves in sticky situations when they need to empty heavy buckets on their own.

Even if you’re not familiar with the vagaries of a building site it’s clear that a bucket can be tricky to manoeuvre when it’s filled with something like wet cement.

There’s a product on the market called Bucket Buddy which, as the name suggests, offers users a helping hand when attempting to empty a bucket.

It is a support mechanism which attaches to buckets via heavy duty nylon straps to take the pressure off the user.

The product features a metal front buckle fastener which latches to the top of the bucket in addition to a size adjustable belt clip and a bucket rim hook that secures the straps and fits neatly under the lid of the bucket.

As more people attempt do-it-yourself projects around the house products or systems to help consumers complete their work more quickly are in strong demand, particularly among mature age home owners.

Bucket Buddy is a great example of a simple yet effective measure designed to make work sites safer.

What other ideas could be developed that appeal to worksite safety?
