[Book a 15-minute demo](https://calendly.com/jen-jmarsolutions/15-min-meeting) ![A concrete crew in hi-vis shirts on a water break under a shade canopy, with orange water coolers](https://jmarsolutions.multisites.ai/_astro/crew-water-break.DBYz1uXS_lxSKi.webp) Construction crews lose water and salt through sweat all shift. Rapid Restoration Drops are a liquid electrolyte dietary supplement that replaces electrolytes lost in sweat and supports hydration. JMAR adds toolbox talks and coaching, so the drops fit your existing heat plan instead of replacing it. - ## Fits any jobsite drink Add a squirt to water or any beverage. One 4 oz bottle holds 48 servings. - ## No sugar, no dyes Unflavored, no sugar, no calories, vegan, non-GMO and gluten free. - ## Built for crews Concrete, landscaping, roofing, HVAC and road construction crews use the drops. - ## Support by phone A Keystone safety manager says JMAR support is there any time of day or any day of the week. ## Why is construction work so hard on hydration? Construction crews work outside, lift heavy loads and wear PPE. That combination drives sweat loss. The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics found that at least 99.5 percent of construction laborers, landscaping workers and firefighters were exposed to the outdoors on the job. NIOSH calls the mix of body heat, weather and PPE [heat stress](https://jmarsolutions.multisites.ai/glossary/heat-stress). Water, rest and shade come first. Read the [jobsite hydration plan](https://jmarsolutions.multisites.ai/guides/jobsite-hydration-plan) and the [heat stress prevention pillar](https://jmarsolutions.multisites.ai/heat-stress-prevention) to build that base. ## Where do Rapid Restoration Drops fit on a jobsite? Rapid Restoration Drops fill the gap after prevention. They are a liquid [electrolyte](https://jmarsolutions.multisites.ai/glossary/electrolyte) concentrate that replaces electrolytes lost in sweat and supports hydration. Add the label’s suggested amount to any drink. One 4 fl oz (120 mL) bottle holds 48 servings. JMAR says the drops are unflavored, with no sugar, no calories and no dyes. Learn how the [liquid electrolyte concentrate](https://jmarsolutions.multisites.ai/glossary/liquid-electrolyte-concentrate) works on the [drops pillar page](https://jmarsolutions.multisites.ai/liquid-electrolyte-drops).

JMAR serves concrete, landscaping, roofing, HVAC and road construction crews. Each trade faces its own heat load, from hot slabs to attics to asphalt. The drops ride along in a cooler, a truck or a pocket. Jared Douglas, President of Advent Air Conditioning, says: “The summer before we started implementing JMAR’s hydration products, we unfortunately had to pull one of our Techs out of a hot attic after passing out.” That is the kind of moment a heat plan must catch early. ## What does JMAR add besides the product? JMAR runs a Hydration Game Plan with three parts: Create, Educate and Achieve. JMAR works with your safety manager to build the plan. It then runs onsite toolbox talks with fresh, interactive hydration education. Ongoing hydration and wellness coaching follows. Start with the [hydration programs](https://jmarsolutions.multisites.ai/hydration-programs) page. Use the [heat toolbox talk guide](https://jmarsolutions.multisites.ai/guides/heat-toolbox-talk) to open your next crew meeting. Review [acclimatization](https://jmarsolutions.multisites.ai/glossary/acclimatization) for new hires. ## What if a worker shows signs of heat stroke? Call 911 and cool the worker right away. Confusion, slurred speech or unconsciousness are signs of heat stroke, according to OSHA. Rapid Restoration Drops are a dietary supplement. They are not medicine and not a substitute for emergency care. Review the [emergency protocol](https://jmarsolutions.multisites.ai/resources/emergency-protocol) before the season starts. ## Next step [Book a 15-minute demo](https://calendly.com/jen-jmarsolutions/15-min-meeting) with JMAR.

I purchased the electrolyte drops and the rehydration packs and distributed them to all of my projects, commercial and structural. We had a couple of cases of heat illnesses that almost required medical attention but were mitigated by the electrolyte solution. ... I have been with Keystone... **Joseph Esquivel**, Safety Manager, Keystone Concrete Placement Georgetown [More case studies](https://jmarsolutions.multisites.ai/results/case-studies) ## Questions crews and safety managers ask ### How do Rapid Restoration Drops differ from traditional hydration methods? The drops are a concentrated liquid, so one 4 oz bottle holds 48 servings and mixes into any beverage. JMAR says the formula has no sugar, no artificial additives and no dyes, so there is no sugar crash. Crews can also take a concentrated dose, then follow with fluids, as the label's suggested use describes. ### How quickly do heat-related symptoms appear, and what should a crew do? Heat illness can worsen quickly and can be fatal. OSHA says to cool the worker and call 911 when in doubt. Confusion, slurred speech or unconsciousness signal heat stroke, which is an emergency. The drops support hydration and are not a substitute for emergency care. ### What is the impact of heat stress beyond the workday? JMAR says dehydrated workers often get home exhausted, with little energy left for family, and that chronic dehydration can lead to long-term health issues and more sick days. Its view is that steady hydration helps workers keep energy through the shift. Ask your doctor about any health concern. ### How can I request a demonstration of Rapid Restoration Drops for my construction team? Book a free 15-minute live demo using the Calendly link on this page. JMAR will work with you on a hydration plan that fits your jobsite conditions and your workers' needs. You can also ask for a free sample or call (214) 632-7780. ### Is water enough for a construction crew, or do they need electrolytes? Water is the base. NIOSH says to drink 1 cup (8 oz) every 15 to 20 minutes during moderate work in the heat, and that if sweating lasts for several hours, workers should drink sports drinks with balanced electrolytes. Rapid Restoration Drops are one way to add electrolytes to water. ### What does JMAR say about the drops and heat cramps? NIOSH links heat cramps to salt and moisture lost through heavy sweat. JMAR says Rapid Restoration Drops are designed to help reduce muscle cramping due to dehydration and overactivity. The drops replace electrolytes lost in sweat. They do not replace rest, shade or medical care. ![Ironworkers silhouetted on a steel frame against a hot orange sunset](https://jmarsolutions.multisites.ai/_astro/sunset-steel.IhAMDca0_6wk53.webp) ## See it on your crew in 15 minutes Jennifer walks your safety team through the drops, the protocol and the numbers on a short live call.
