Our Values
Do the Right Thing.
At the core of our culture is a single ambition: Do the Right Thing. Simply put, this means to always make decisions and take actions which are of mutual benefit to our organization and our customers. A strong set of key values guides us in this practice.
The Safewaze Difference
To be fall protection’s most responsive partner, we push boundaries, challenging the traditional fall protection provider experience. A set of value-added services gives us the tools to deliver on that promise.
Our Fall Arrest System FAQ page has answers to some of the most common questions we get.
Safewaze proved they could challenge us with innovative ideas, provide access to engineers and change designs to increase comfort and performance.

We have customers that need made-to-order product in two days. The only company in the US that could possibly do that is Safewaze: they are small enough to have flexibility and can manufacture on the spot.

Manufacturing & Innovation
Building a Stronger Safewaze
With renovations completed in 2021, our 100,000 square foot state-of-the-art plant is a major milestone on our journey to build an enduring company.
The plant reflects our commitment to manufacturing in the USA and to making Safewaze an employer of choice. It further strengthens our advantage in responding with speed and flexibility to customer needs through expanded capacity and streamlined production, as well as a dedicated R&D and engineering center, testing laboratory, training room and SRL repair department.

Our Team
Our talented, diverse team of 100 employees brings decades of related experience.
Our History
In 1994, as OSHA standards changed, Safewaze co-founders and industrial product veterans Gene Verble and Darrell Hagler saw an opportunity to create both a safer workplace and a different type of company.
By pushing the boundaries of responsiveness, flexible solutions and expert advice, Safewaze challenged the traditional fall protection provider experience. Why? Because lives were on the line and worksite demands required a nimble, hard-working safety partner.
Technology and tools have evolved over the years. Our DNA is the same. We remain 100% committed to redefining the customer experience in the fall protection industry. With a new manufacturing facility, investment in digital tools and mission-focused team, we deepen our capabilities to serve our customers – just the way they want.
Safewaze is a beacon of light in a dark landscape of manufacturing. It’s nice to know there are companies out there still hustling to be responsive.
