A-SAFE US To Showcase Revolutionary Industrial Safety Solutions at IMTS 2024 Amid Need for Increased Workplace Safety

A-SAFE, a global leader in workplace efficiency and safety solutions, is exhibiting at IMTS 2024 on September 9-14 in Chicago, IL, with its booth #135460 located in the East Building, Level 3 at the McCormick Place convention center.

All visitors to IMTS 2024 have the opportunity to see A-SAFE's state-of-the-art industrial safety solutions, including RackEye™, its IoT-powered device for always-on active racking management; the iFlex™ single- and double-traffic guardrails, and the next-generation Monoplex bollards.

James Smith, co-CEO at A-SAFE, commented: “We are pleased to be part of the world’s biggest industrial trade show alongside the largest innovators of manufacturing technology. The US market holds great strategic importance for A-SAFE right now, especially with the imminent opening of our Dallas office. We look forward to demonstrating to the American business world that our polymer-based solutions are the present and future of warehouse efficiency and safety.”

Currently celebrating its 40th anniversary, A-SAFE is the creator of the world's first industrial-strength polymer barrier safety system. This advanced material offers a longer lifecycle compared to other traditional materials thanks to its ability to absorb impact energies and reform, and considerably reduces downtimes thanks to its fast assembly and reduced maintenance requirements.

A-SAFE's latest workplace safety innovations integrate Internet of Things (IoT) technology and are revolutionizing industrial efficiency in warehouses, airports, and factories across over 65 countries. With the focus on supporting all its physical products with smart technology, A-SAFE's solutions help protect machinery, robotics and technology assets as well as provide data analytics for proactive maintenance, anticipated equipment failures, and recurring danger spots in warehouses.

Asad Afzal, Global Director of Transformation at A-SAFE said: “IMTS showcases the latest manufacturing technology, and acquiring this technology can require considerable investments by companies. These assets are usually located in busy and volatile warehouse environments, and therefore both workers and equipment need to be protected from safety hazards.”

Recent data released by the U.S. Bureau of Labor indicates that fatal occupational injuries in the United States went up by 5.7 percent in 2022 from the previous year, with three of the main causes stemming from transportation incidents, falls, slips, and trips; and contact with objects and equipment.

Afzal expanded on addressing this issue proactively: “A-SAFE's solutions not only enhance the safety of employees and warehouse assets, but also contribute to future-proofing and de-risking thanks to the actionable data they provide, enabling proactive maintenance and informed decision-making for improved safety and operational efficiency.”

A-SAFE welcomes all attendees to its booth #135460, East Building, Level 3, where Asad Afzal is available throughout the week to showcase the company’s wide range of cutting-edge safety solutions and provide all necessary information on the products driving innovation in manufacturing technology.
