It’s very close to the Festive season, the season to be jolly, and soon houses will be filled with celebration and cheer. There are of course, guests to tend to, the Christmas dinner to be prepped and cooked, and of course not forgetting the drinks to go round ( mines a bourbon please ).

All this requires a lot of work, and a little help will go a long way.
Tenura daily living aids can be used to open bottles, line trays to prevent food spillage, hold chopping boards, enhance grip on knives, you can put baking trays on it ( don’t forget to let that turkey rest! ) due to its heat resistance, as well as many other grip enhancing and anti slip solutions around the home. You can even kit out the dining table, our range of yellow, blue and red colours would enhance the festive cheer!

All of our daily living aids are non toxic, so can be used around food, whether prepping or eating, as we have met and exceeded all regulations to ensure the material is safe for use in all areas, for all ages.

Look out for a Christmas and New Year online offer coming to Facebook, Twitter, Google+ and the site itself.

At Tenura, we have a range of grip-enhancing daily living aids that at first glance seem to cater for more specific things than others.

Tenura anti slip grip rolls is simply a roll of grip-enhancing silicone! Offering a DIY approach to a grip or slip problem around the home. We offer many sizes of our grip rolls in two different colours, red or blue.

We have been trying the anti slip rolls out at home, and it simply is as versatile as we say it is! Any situation where we have been devoid from grip, we have simply cut out a piece of the roll, and either laid it on a surface or wrapped it around an object to increase grip and prevent slippage or spillage.

I personally have used the Tenura anti slip rolls as a draw liner, mat for a plate (I had just made soup and wasn’t prepared to let the bowl slip off the plate), grip enhancer on cutlery handles and tools. You can also increase the amount of Tenura anti-slip roll you use when wrapping around an object to increase grip and comfort without having to tighten your grip! Many people with arthritis are restricted in the amount of pressure and grip they can maintain. With the ability to increase the handle size rather than cause you pain and potential injury, this makes Tenura anti-slip grip rolls, in a sense, revolutionary!

There are literally too many applications the non slip rolls can be used for to list here, and some, no doubt many, we haven’t thought of yet!!

Feel free to let us know on our Facebook, Twitter and Instagram pages stating what you would, could or have used it the Tenura anti slip rolls for. Send us a picture if you have used it in a certain way.

We have been on Pinterest for some time, showing our followers our great daily living aid range. Pinterest is a social sharing site where you can share images along with information by ‘pinning’ them on to your virtual board. Like most social networks, people can follow you and vice versa, which is nothing new, but it is a great way of sharing information that is not only interesting but educational.

We ‘pin-up’ everything from inspirational images/memes to promotional offers from our website, you can see our Pinterest boards here.

If you aren’t familiar with Tenura, we design, manufacture, and sell daily living aids. Tenura products are a great addition to the home/workplace and can offer additional help during day-to-day tasks. They are suitable for everyone and great for disabled or elderly people, especially if they have impairments to their grip strength.

Pinterest also has a web browser add-on (please check for your web browser compatibility), so you can instantly pin anything you like while you are browsing the web, such as our innovative daily living aids. This makes it an efficient piece of networking kit, as you won’t waste time specifically searching for content, you can just pin it as you come across it!

It’s free to join, so sign-up, and check out Tenura’s Pinterest boards.

 

Tenura anti slip floor mats are a useful item to have around the home and clinical areas. When you have a disability, ailment or injury, movement is difficult, and you need all the stability you can get.

Silicone anti slip floor mats can assist in all these, giving you the stability you need when walking from one place to another, or simply standing up or sitting down, as the grip provided by these mats will remove the paranoia of losing your footing.

Tenura anti slip floor mats are not suitable for wet weather use ( please see Tenura bathroom stickers for this ), but hold very firm in dry conditions, as silicone as it’s own adhesive-like qualities, though will leave no residue when removed. As well as for use inside the home, they can be used as door mats, or even to simply place dirty shoes on to prevent your carpet or floor from getting dirty.

Right now, we are offering a staggering 28% off our floor mats, so now is a chance to pick one up!

You can visit our website, call or email us, and we will be happy to help you.

While Tenura daily living aids have been previously mentioned as really useful in domestic and clinical environments, they are not restricted to this, as they offer many different application uses in many different environments, anyone can find a use for them.

The office is one such area in which Tenura products can be utilised. In a fast-paced office environment or even a home office, Tenura daily living aids offer a quick-fire anti-slip solution to any desk, table or a situation that requires grip enhancement.

Laptops are a particularly prominent item in the workplace, as many people travel a lot during the day, so need to have the ability to take their work wherever they go. Laptops also have the only slight downside of getting hot when left on a flat, unventilated surface; this could cause damage to the surface it’s on.

Feet can also catch power leads and, while some laptops have preventive measures in place, some don’t so that urgent report could be delayed due to your laptop being knocked onto the floor. Tenura silicone rubber non slip mats and non slip fabric can prevent these, due to their anti slip qualities, which will prevent the item being dragged to the floor, and their heat resistance, will prevent the surface being possibly blemished, and in particular, with the non-slip fabric, offers a bit more ventilation.

You can essentially ‘kit out’ your whole desk with Tenura daily living aids, with a non-slip coaster for your morning cup of tea or coffee, and one to go under your vase of flowers, or a similar item of convenience on your desk.

Tenura anti-slip grip strips are also useful for people who struggle to grip pens, as wrapping a grip strip around will increase grip and comfort for the user.

Should you have a footrest under your desk, then another mat may come in handy, as not all of them have an effective anti-slip surface. Many people I know like to take their shoes off while they are sat at their desks, and the mat would insulate better, keeping your feet a lot warmer than the cold plastic of a footrest would normally.

Tenura daily living aids can be integrated effectively into a working environment, in most cases to increase efficiency and comfort in the workplace. You can explore the whole Tenura daily living aid range by viewing our products page.

So, my colleagues have just returned from Rehacare, telling us tales of the great place that is Germany, the sights, the sounds, the smells…. but that is not what this blog post is for.

After visiting Rehacare last year, we knew that this year was a great opportunity to fully present Tenura to another international audience, especially after the success of AOTA in Indianapolis, and Salon Autonomic in Paris, we knew we couldn’t miss out.

Rehacare International is an annual expo based in Dusseldorf, Germany, and it ran from the 10th until the 13th of October, with six halls of exhibitors for businesses and the general public.

With confidence ( as always ) in the product, and some excellent signage and POS setup on the stand, from start to finish, Mathew and Gerard where bombarded with enquiries from many companies from around the globe, some we hope to announce as Tenura retailers in the future, but for now, they must remain nameless.

Many thanks to everyone who assisted Mathew and Gerard in getting us to Rehacare, and to each and every one of you that visited the stand.

We are at Rehacare International from today until the 13th, and during that time, we are offering all of our UK customers 20% off their next order.

Once it’s gone it’s gone, and there wont be another one for a while, so take advantage of the savings while you can!

Rehacare is a massive International trade fair for companies who manufacture and sell independent living products. ( A blog post will expand on this next week )

We hope you can take advantage of the offer, and we look forward to seeing your orders come in!!

Here at Tenura, we are constantly developing current and new daily living aids to improve their performance for the user, as customers are our priority. We want to create a range of products that people will come to first and foremost to get the job done.

This is our specialty, and while we are knowledgeable on the aspects of conditions like arthritis, we have created daily living aids to help combat daily challenges associated with having arthritis, there are also many other organisations who specialise on providing the knowledge you need to help deal with impairing conditions, such as arthritis, and together we all hope to make daily living easier for you.

We have created a resources page to ensure that you get to the information you need, and hopefully make use of our products while you are on your journey. This ensures that you not only get the help you need but the advice too.

Please visit our resource page to gain extra information that you require.

If any companies would like to be considered for listing on our resources page, they can contact us by email

Join Tenura in the growing conversation surrounding Arthritis and independent living via our social platforms; Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.

 

Are you looking for a soft anti-slip material?

Tenura has created a non-slip fabric designed to be just that, as it is soft, anti-slip and has the added benefit of being waterproof too. Tenura non-slip fabric is excellent when used as a cushioned material to place items on. It can protect the surface as well as the object placed in it. Due to its soft and flexible design, it can be used all around the home.

Tenura non-slip fabric comes in rolls of black, beige or white, which can be cut to size easily to suit the various places around your home or office. Many of our customers have used Tenura non-slip fabric to use as a draw or shelf liner, a non-slip base for a vase or other delicate, expensive ornaments. It helps to keep your belongings safe when you may experience unwanted movement. Such as when you are travelling with a motorhome and you need to keep your crockery intact for the journey.

A great technique to help your crockery arrive safely is by making makeshift placemats. Another great use of Tenura non-slip fabric is as a car drape for a mechanic. The possibilities are virtually endless.

As mentioned, Tenura non-slip fabric is also waterproof, so it can be used on boats as a non-slip surface near water.

Tenura non-slip fabric is machine washable, so if it becomes dirty, it can be cleaned in the washing machine and will come out as good as new.

Tenura non-slip fabric rolls are available in sizes of 50.8cm x 182cm and are available to buy from the Tenura website.
