HealthySole Plus 8-Second UVC eradicates pathogens on soles of footwear, helping reduce pathogens in and around the station.

When the Los Angeles, California, Police Department (LAPD) faced increased workforce lost hours due to cases of MRSA, Hepatitis-A, and typhoid after foot patrols through homeless encampments, they turned to HealthySole as part of the solution. In an effort to reduce the station bioburden inadvertently brought in on shoes and boots, the LAPD looked at HealthySole’s germicidal UVC to eradicate bacteria, viruses, and mold spores known to cause potential infection. Placed at station entrances, near desks, and in briefing rooms for shift change, the HealthySole PLUS units have become part of the infection prevention and wellness effort at over 38 different precinct locations.


HealthySole is the leading provider of affordable germicidal UVC technology to help eradicate inadvertent shoeborne transmission of pathogens known to potentially cause illness. Used in hospitals, long-term care facilities, public administration buildings, and food handling and manufacturing sites around the world, HealthySole’s proven technology enables law enforcement, fire, and EMS to quickly and thoroughly reduce the environmental bioburden in one simple 8-second step, without added chemicals or gasses like ozone. Simple. Fast. Effective. Smart. HealthySole UVC-powered disinfection for the soles of footwear.

Handcuffs for the 21st Century

Handcuffs have not fundamentally changed in over 100 years, yet the scrutiny, accountability, and dangers for law enforcement have increased exponentially over that time. Spidercuff’s revolutionary handcuff technology enables today’s officers to meet these demands. Our extendable Model 01 allows detainees to be restrained quicker and safer by extending up to 14 inches, thus “stopping the struggle” sooner. Stopping the struggle faster removes everyone from harm’s way sooner and reduces potential injury to officers and detainees. The ergonomic grip provides excellent control while applying and once applied, the cuff ratchets back to a chain handcuff automatically. All Spidercuff handcuffs also have a patented automatic double lock (ADL). The ADL is an internal mechanism that activates when the handcuff is applied, stopping forward movement of the bail…automatically. The ADL reduces potential for wrist injuries and the resultant complaints and liability.


Spidercuff USA is a U.S.-based company that is dedicated to making the fulfillment of law enforcement’s mission safer for officers and more humane for the public. We believe our technologies will become the new standard in handcuffs by supplying the functionality required for 21st century policing. All Spidercuff handcuffs are assembled and shipped from our facility in Massachusetts.
