If you’ve ever wondered how two people can clear pounds of heavy, wet snow from a car frame in ten seconds or less, you’d best be on the lookout for the Hint Snow Sleeve Snow Removal Device, a new creation that helped Epping-based Hunter IdeaNeT capture the New Hampshire Business Resource Center’s “Innovation Rocks!” award for the month of October.
 Manufactured in the Granite State, the Snow Sleeve is a quick and easy way for one or two people to remove snow from vehicles. It slips over the user’s arm and can also be used as a “fabric plow” for heavier snow while also being available for use by two people with the aid of included extension straps. The sleeve’s heavyweight water resistant fabric is safe for all vehicle surfaces and the apparatus is perfect for all types and depths of snow.
“With the rapid approach of winter, Hunter IdeaNeT has created a product that makes snow removal from vehicles so much easier,” said New Hampshire Division of Economic Development Interim Director Roy Duddy. “The Snow Sleeve is a perfect example of a New Hampshire innovation that saves time and energy. It’s a godsend for anyone approaching a snowy morning.”

The development of a modular pistol that allows the shooter to change caliber and size at will has earned Sig Sauer the New Hampshire Business Resource Center’s “Innovation Rocks!” Award for the month of September.
 Exeter-based Sig Sauer’s P250 was designed specifically to address the future needs of the military, law enforcement and civilian shooters and features six different ergonomic combinations to accommodate varying hand sizes. Hailed by Gun World as “a pistol for all seasons,” the P250 is also renowned for having 30-40 percent fewer parts than a traditional semi-automatic pistol.
“Sig Sauer has created a product that truly revolutionizes our nation’s defense efforts,” said New Hampshire Division of Economic Development Interim Director Roy Duddy. “Sig Sauer weapons created right here in New Hampshire are being used to protect our President as well as to protect the United State’s interests abroad. The P250 is just another in a long line of outstanding innovations by this world class company.”

By crafting a 4.5 pound “green” tent that can withstand 40 mile per hour winds, Nemo Equipment, Inc. has earned the New Hampshire Business Resource Center’s “Innovation Rocks!” Award for the month of August.
 Nashua-based Nemo Equipment’s Nano OZ is a durable two-person backpacking tent made almost entirely of recycled materials. Recycled, post-consumer plastic is used for the fabrics, guylines, even the zipper tape. Comprised of 90% recycled and recyclable materials, more than any other tent currently on the market, the Nano OZ was hailed by Backpacker Magazine for designing a “rock-solid structure” that withstood blasting 40-mph winds in Wales’s Snowdonia National Park.
“Nemo has not only created a tremendous product, it has also put great emphasis on being environmentally friendly,” said New Hampshire Division of Economic Development Interim Director Roy Duddy. “This type of innovation is setting the pace in the outdoor equipment industry and is testament to the type of creative thinking that New Hampshire is known for.”

For some people, the thought of a “green” haircut conjures up visions of Halloween or punk music. However, the type of “green” hairstyling that takes place at a local business has led to Acorn Organic Salon being named the “Innovation Rocks!” Award winner by the New Hampshire Division of Economic Development’s Business Resource Center for the month of July.
 Operated by Dover natives Laura MacKay and Allison Degan, Acorn Organic Salon emphasizes environmental responsibility in every aspect of their operation from renovations and products to waste management and consumer education. In addition to vetting all hair care and body products for toxicity, safety and organic ingredients, Acorn reuses shopping bags when processing hair color and promotes onsite book and magazine recycling and swapping.
“Innovation isn’t just about creating a new product, it’s about finding a way to do business differently for the betterment of your customers and your community,” said New Hampshire Division of Economic Development Interim Director Roy Duddy. “Not only is Acorn Organic Salon providing great hairstyling to their customers, they’ve incorporated environmental friendliness and community service into their business model. This sends a tremendous message to other businesses who are wondering how they can do their part for the environment.”
Acorn Organic Salon has partnered with Matter of Trust, a company that uses hair clippings to soak up the more than 2,600 oil spills that happened across the globe in just the past year alone. All of Acorn’s hair clippings are shipped to Matter of Trust on a monthly basis.

When the U.S. Food and Drug Administration informed the Center for Disease Control about multiple samples of pistachio nuts being contaminated with Salmonella three months ago, a New Hampshire company sprung into action and worked to stop the spread of the infection. As a result of the development of a new durable shield that monitors temperatures of oil roasting nuts, MadgeTech has been named the “Innovation Rocks!” Award winner by the New Hampshire Division of Economic Development’s Business Resource Center for the month of June.
The Contoocook-based company, a global data logging device manufacturer, recently unveiled a shield that can withstand temperatures up to 250 degrees Celsius, making it ideal for monitoring and recording the high temperature of oil roasting nuts. Although this product was created for the nut industry, its versatility allows it to be used in other applications such as food processing and conveyor oven monitoring. It can also be placed directly in oil to validate deep frying processes.
“MadgeTech has truly created a product that is ensuring the health of not only New Hampshire citizens, but people around the globe,” said New Hampshire Division of Economic Development Interim Director Roy Duddy. “Their ingenuity and creativity is saving lives and ensuring that the food we’re eating is safe for consumption.”
