INUTEQ and PVS Take Center Stage at Safety Expo 2026: Strong Interest in Professional Cooling Apparel

Innovation in workplace safety also involves heat management. At Safety Expo 2026, held on September 16 and 17 at the Bergamo Exhibition Center, PVS S.p.A. presented INUTEQ’s cooling apparel solutions, generating strong interest in technologies designed to ensure thermal comfort and protect workers exposed to high temperatures.

The event provided an important opportunity to present a range of innovative solutions—designed to help manage heat stress in the workplace—to safety professionals, HSE managers, companies, and distributors.

During the two-day Safety Expo, at the PVS booth in Hall A, Aisle A1, Booth 46, INUTEQ’s cooling apparel was among the new products presented to visitors.

The growing focus on preventing risks associated with high temperatures makes it increasingly important to identify practical solutions for improving working conditions, especially in sectors where exposure to heat is a daily challenge.

INUTEQ’s cooling technologies address this need through wearable cooling systems designed to provide thermal comfort during work activities.

Participating in Safety Expo allowed PVS to showcase these solutions, highlighting their features and various applications in professional settings.

How does INUTEQ cooling apparel work?

INUTEQ H2O – Evaporative Cooling

A technology that uses water evaporation to facilitate heat dissipation. The system is activated by soaking the vest in water for about two minutes and can provide a cooling effect for up to 8 hours, depending on environmental conditions.

INUTEQ DRY – Cooling without getting your clothes wet

The system uses evaporative technology that keeps the clothing underneath dry. It activates with about 500 ml of water and can provide a cooling effect for 8 to 72 hours, depending on the conditions of use.

INUTEQ PCM – Phase-Change Technology

PCM systems use phase-change cooling elements to absorb body heat and help maintain thermal comfort. They are particularly useful in professional applications where evaporative cooling is less effective.

INUTEQ HYBRID – Combined Cooling

HYBRID technology combines different cooling systems to offer a versatile solution that can be adapted to various operating and environmental conditions.

Heat Stress in the Workplace: Why Is Prevention Becoming Increasingly Important?

Prolonged exposure to high temperatures can affect workers’ well-being, concentration, and performance. In severe cases, heat stress can contribute to the onset of health conditions that pose a risk.

This risk affects numerous professional sectors, including manufacturing, logistics, construction, maintenance, agriculture, and outdoor work.

The use of cooling clothing can serve as a complementary measure within a broader heat-related risk prevention strategy, along with proper hydration, ventilation, scheduled breaks, and the organization of work activities.

The choice of refrigeration technology must always take into account the environmental conditions and the risk assessment for the specific activity.

PVS and INUTEQ: Innovation in the Service of Workplace Safety
