Half of all UK water authorities choose Blackline Safety to
protect workers
Blackline Safety Corp. (TSX: BLN), a global leader in connected
safety technology, today announced a new water and wastewater
company in the United Kingdom has selected Blackline Safety’s
technology to protect its people and support its digital
transformation. This marks the sixth out of the UK’s 12 water and
wastewater companies to now use Blackline’s cloud-connected gas
detection products and services.
Blackline Safety’s technology was selected through a highly
competitive and rigorous tender process. The three-year award
includes an option to extend for an additional five years of
service, which would bring the total value to over $4.2 million.
The utility will replace their existing gas detection units with
over 2,600 Blackline Safety G7c wearable devices and associated
services.
“As one of Britain’s largest water companies with operations
across more than 100 sites, this water authority needed a flexible,
multifunctional safety solution to accommodate the diverse risks
and work situations their people face while supporting
data-informed decisions that drive safety towards zero reportable
incidents,” said Simon Rich, Sales Director - Europe, Blackline
Safety.
“The value of real-time cloud-connected data, paired with
scalable technology that adapts to changing work environments,
allows Blackline to continue to see strong adoption of our
connected safety solutions across the water and wastewater
industry.”
Blackline’s G7 lone worker and personal gas detection devices
are robust and intelligent connected wearables that accurately
detect gas hazards, instantly notifying both workers and managers
in real time, enabling contact tracing as well as corrective action
to be taken to mitigate future incidents. Supported by Blackline’s
professional 24/7 live monitoring service, they ensure maximum
worker protection with automated safety incident and health event
monitoring, including features such as no-motion and fall
detection, and missed check-ins.
