SafetyLiftinGear are official partners of The Bloodhound Project. For those of you who are not aware, The Bloodhound Project, is based in Avonmouth, Bristol, and has been created by Richard Noble OBE, and current Land Speed Record holder Andy Green, not only attempt to break the current Land Speed Record, of 763.035mph set in 2007, but to inspire young people to get into science, engineering and mathematical fields.
The Bloodhound project has been on-going for 8 years and has involved over 350 companies and universities. And we, at SafetyLiftinGear are proud to say that we are amongst them supplying the Bloodhound project with various material handling products and lifting equipment to ensure that the Supersonic car has been built as safely as possible.
In London’s Canary wharf on the 23rd of September the Bloodhound SSC went on display showing just how this supersonic car has been built. Over 10,000 people queued to catch a glimpse of this piece of amazing engineering over the weekend.
The car will undergo 200 mph tests next year in Cornwall before attempting to break the land speed world record on 15 October 2016.
SafetyLiftinGear are proud to be a part of this truly amazing project.
