FLI Products Safety Hub
Safety Hub
Welcome to the FLI Products Safety Hub — your resource for product safety guides, best practices, and expert tips to help you use our products safely and effectively.
INTRODUCTION
Most household accidents and electrical failures happen in places people don’t think about — like the point where two extension cords meet, or the way knives are stored in a drawer.
At FLI Products, we believe prevention matters first. Our Safety Hub explains common risks and the simple tools that help prevent them.
This page is your central resource for understanding everyday safety hazards and how to protect yourself, your home, and your family.

ELECTRICAL SAFETY: KEEPING OUTDOOR POWER SAFE
When you plug devices outdoors — for holiday lights, patio heaters, power tools, or garden equipment — the connection point between extension cords is the weakest part of the system.
Moisture, dirt, and temperature changes can create:
-
Short circuits
-
Corrosion
-
Electrical arcing
-
Shock hazards
That’s why protecting the connection is essential.
CordSafe Plus Connection Protectors create a weather-resistant seal around plug connections to prevent moisture intrusion and reduce electrical risk.

KITCHEN SAFETY: PROTECT HANDS AND BLADES
Loose knives in drawers or bags account for many kitchen accidents and damaged blades. Most injuries happen when reaching into storage or during transport.
Blade guards cover the cutting edge, protecting both:
-
The user
-
The knife’s sharpness
Blade Guards are available in multiple sizes to fit most kitchen knives and make storage safer.

FAQs — SAFETY HUB EDITION
What safety risks should I think about in my home?
Many risks occur where we don’t usually think about safety — such as electrical plug connections or how knives are stored. Understanding common risk scenarios is the first step toward prevention.
Are purpose-built safety tools really worth it?
Yes. Tools like connection protectors and blade guards are specifically designed to manage hazards that improvised solutions (like tape or plastic bags) cannot reliably prevent.
Where can I learn more about safety best practices?
Our blog section covers specific safety topics with research links and practical tips for real-world scenarios.
