From the Archives: A New Glove and Boot Dryer

Thursday, December 27, 2012 Posted by Brian Phillips
As part of our centennial-year celebration and throwback series, let's take a look into the LG&E and KU archives. In 1953, the company implemented a new technique to dry gloves and boots, allowing 30 gloves to dry in 15 minutes. Previously, the items took one hour to dry.

Safety is a top priority for us, and the article below (from our employee publication at the time) walks the reader through the process of cleaning and checking the integrity of the equipment to ensure the well-being of employees wearing it while working in the field.
