Key tool
The Coleman Green Key tool is the first step in making empty single-use propane cylinders recyclable. The Coleman Company Inc. enables consumers to be sure their propane cylinders are completely empty before they are discarded along with regular household
trash or recycled. The Green Key tool is inserted into the top of the cylinder, where it will remain permanently lodged. After
two minutes, individuals can discard or recycle the steel cylinder, confident in knowing that the presence of the bright green
device indicates the cylinder is open and empty. The tool is packaged inside the cap of most Coleman-branded propane cylinders.

Fall protection
SafeRack LLC is a provider of truck and railcar loading-rack and fall-protection equipment. The company offers the Permacable Horizontal

up to 200 feet apart. The system's pass-through device allows workers to walk past intermediate supports without having to
disconnect their lifeline. Despite its light weight, Permacable has a tensile strength of 16,000 pounds and is weather-, chemical-
and corrosion-resistant. The cable is bright orange, but when it wears it turns a bright red, alerting the operator that it
needs to be replaced.
