Capital Safety, the world leading provider of safety solutions for workers at height has announced the acquisition of specialist manufacturer of tool drop prevention equipment, Python Safety, Inc.<\/p>\n

Capital Safety’s industry-leading products, which include harnesses, lanyards, self-retracting lifelines, engineered systems and rescue devices, are sold through the globally recognised brands DBI-SALA\u00ae and PROTECTA\u00ae.<\/p>\n

The addition of Python Safety to the portfolio will support Capital Safety\u2019s mission to bring every worker at height home safely by focusing on eliminating accidents from dropped tools.<\/p>\n

Falling objects are a leading cause of injury for workers. According to DROPS, the Dropped Objects Prevention Scheme, more than 850 incidents have been recorded in the oil and gas industry alone since 2010, with predicted incidents on the rise*. Ensuring employers are focused on providing a total safety solution to protect workers at height, as well as those on the ground, from dropped objects is paramount to reducing and ultimately eliminating these incidents.<\/p>\n

Nate Damro, President – Europe, Middle East and Africa at Capital Safety, commented: \u201cWe are very excited to have Python Safety become part of Capital Safety. This acquisition is a natural extension for us and in line with our continued commitment to bringing workers home safely.<\/p>\n

\u201cStruck-by falling objects is a leading cause of injury for workers and Python Safety\u2019s portfolio of products are designed to prevent tools and equipment from falling. This deal enables us to bring a broader range of solutions to our customer base and helps them keep their employees safe.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mark Caldwell, CEO of Python Safety, added, \u201cWe are delighted to join Capital Safety. As a combined organisation, we will be able to leverage Capital Safety\u2019s global organisation and distribution channels with our core strength in drop prevention to broaden our reach and bring even more innovative solutions to a larger customer base. It will also allow us a better opportunity to expand the definition of fall protection to include tools and equipment.\u201d<\/p>\n

Capital Safety will be launching the premium range of dropped object prevention products for tools and equipment – including tool holsters and pouches, attachment points and lanyards \u2013 at the upcoming Safety & Health Expo. Taking place on 16-18 June 2015 at the ExCel exhibition centre in London, the event will offer delegates access to Capital Safety experts who will be available to discuss specific application challenges and solutions for workers at height.
