Get The Right Gear for the Right Elements Extreme Cold Weather Gear

As temperatures plummet, cold settings can make it difficult for workers to perform jobs effectively. As body heat escapes through the extremities, conditions can go from uncomfortable to unsafe, with frostbite and hypothermia being concerns. A thermal barrier that holds in body heat and blocks out the extreme cold becomes very important.

MDS Associates offers an extensive line of wholesale industrial cold weather gear to combat the harshest weather conditions for construction, wood working, refineries, delivery service, landscaping, cold storage/warehousing, water maintenance, drilling/mining, farming, snowmobiling, commercial fishing, search & rescue, DEC, forestry, snow removal and more.

PIP's New Hand Warmer Heat Packs are perfect for generating portable heat when worn within cold weather PPE such as headwear, snow boots and gloves. Generating over 8 hours of warmth, they reach temperature in 2-5 minutes and can be paused at any time by resealing the inserts in an airtight container when on break or lunch.  Hot Rods™ Hand Warmer and Hot Rods™ Toe Warmer Packs heat up within 2 minutes and last for 8 hours. The Toe Warming packs can be used with sneakers, boots and shoes and feature an adhesive backing to stay on the foot.

Winter Helmet Liners & Knit Caps

For extreme cold conditions, check out the N-Ferno® Balaclavas w/ Hot Rox™.  This balaclava is a technologically advanced high-performance cold weather face mask with a built-in heat exchanger. In extreme conditions, the heat exchanger combats the damaging effects of cold air by providing warm air during inhalation and controls moisture to keep the face dry and warm.

Head liners feature an adjustable chin strap, elastic face gathering,  insulated ear warmer pockets and a reflective stripe on the back to increase safety in low light conditions.
