Winter-Ready Workplaces: Best Heating, Lighting & Safety Supplies

Below are practical ways to make your workplace winter-ready — with direct links to heating, lighting, and safety products you can purchase today on GoVets.com.

Stay Warm: Heaters for Offices, Shops & Warehouses

Keeping indoor areas at safe, comfortable temperatures is essential for worker well-being and productivity. GoVets offers a wide range of electric heaters for offices, workshops, and industrial spaces. 

Portable Heaters for Offices & Small Rooms

For personal offices, cubicles, and small rooms, portable electric heaters are easy to deploy where you need them most:

Shop & Facility Heaters

Larger shops, service bays, and facilities need more robust solutions:

Pro tip: Combine proper heating with draft control, door seals, and simple insulation upgrades to get more out of every watt of heat.

Light the Way: Winter-Ready Indoor & Outdoor Lighting

With winter, daylight hours shrink — which means workers arrive and leave in the dark more often, and tasks get done under artificial light. Good lighting helps prevent accidents, improves visibility, and enhances security.

Outdoor & Perimeter Lighting

Keep parking lots, walkways, and building exteriors well lit for employees, visitors, and drivers:

Equip crews with portable lights they can move from task to task, whether they’re working in a mechanical room, at an outdoor panel, or under a vehicle.

Fight Ice & Snow: Walkway Safety & Ice Melt

Slips and falls are one of the biggest winter hazards. Keeping entrances, loading docks, and walkways clear is crucial.

Ice Melt & Rock Salt

GoVets offers a full range of ice melt options designed for sidewalks, parking lots, and driveways:

Use these products proactively before storms and re-apply as needed to keep surfaces safe and reduce slip risk.

Personal Winter Safety Gear: Gloves, Boots & Hi-Vis Apparel

Beyond facility upgrades, personal protective equipment (PPE) helps workers stay safe and productive outdoors and in unheated spaces.

Insulated & Winter Work Gloves

Slip-Resistant & Waterproof Work Boots
