Safe Light – Visible Safety at Bamako (Mali) Airport

Safe Light has recently completed delivery of a significant project Bamako International Airport in Mali, West Africa. The Airport handling is managed by ASAM SA, a Malian company.

Safe Light has to comply with strict safety guidelines within the framework of an airport management and international safety regulations, as stipulated by such organisations as ISO, leading to certification as EN471, EN345 EN388. The reason for so much compliance and certification? - One thing; Ultimate Passenger Safety.

The project was awarded to Safe Light on the basis of its ability to meet all the safety criteria and to guarantee timely delivery. The project included the production and delivery of visible safety products as well as other equipment for the airport ground personnel, including air handling, cargo and general ground staff.

The High Visibility Waistcoats were all stamped with the ASAM logo. Other equipment included anti-static, non-slip safety foot wear, ear protection; full body wet weather protection and safety gloves. All equipment having arrived quickly and without damage or loss, the Safe Light team were congratulated by the client.

It is ironic that Safe Light was awarded the contract in the region where much of its initial product testing was carried out. As one member of the test team stated " we came to test 500 kits in the region and sold 15,000."

SafeLight produce a range of practical visibility and emergency lighting products including the versatile TravelSafe Kit which will protect you on the roadside day or night, and provide light in a moment in any situation.

Safe Light - MarineSafe Kit a success at Norec

UK Euro Partner the Uk distributor for Safe Light was recently awarded its first contact with Norec for the supply of six of its new MarineSafe Kits. The function of the MarineSafe Kit is to provide light in an emergency situation aboard smaller boats say 18-55 foot. The system will provide light within the boat as well as clearly marking Port and Starboard from stern and bow. The system also allows the clear marking of each crew member with a Safe Light Baton and Safety Cord, being water proof the units are pruposefull even in the event a crew member falls overboard.
As the MarineSafe Kit carries its instructions on the case exterior printed on to a waterproof vinyl label it is even easier to use in an emergency. For the novice; Port & Starboard are clearly marked on the case.
All things considered the MarineSafe Kit represents excellent value when considering it costs and average of £7.44 per crew member. Not expensive when considering the protection of life.
To be able to see and be seen clearly in adverse conditions is a true benefit to anyone at sea and to be able to access this benefit quickly and feel safe in the knowledge one has relaible equipment at ones side provides warm relief in most situations.
MarineSafe Kit is one of a range of products produced by Safe Light. To see all their products go to www.uk-euro-partner.co.uk

Safe Light DriverSafe Kit, a star at BSIF

UK Euro Partner, the UK representative of Safe Light of Switzerland, has been accredited with membership of the British Safety Industry Federation - BSIF. Safe Light is an innovator in the Visible Safety industry, having recently caused a minor sensation at the SHE-NEC with its new High Visibility Waistcoat employing Dual Light Technology (DLT08). This means the wearer no longer has to depend on an external light source to be available to make a High Visibility Waistcoat visible at night or in the dark.
Dual Light Technology means the wearer can be seen in any dark situation by anyone, both from the front and the back, clearly making those around you aware of your presence - a critical safety factor.
Safe Light has also recently upgraded its Safe Light Pod, which radiates a dome of indicative light and seems to be the preferred method of indication for some of the UK's leading Fire & Rescue services. With its unique HTA 3mm adhesive pad the Safe Light Pod will adhere to almost any reasonably flat, dry surface.
Being proactive in the safety industry is marked by Safe Lights new research programme aimed to have all its products certified under ATEX to EN1127 for Zones 1+2 within the next 3 months making it the most intrinsically safe non-electrical safety light product on the market.
As a member of the BSIF and through the medium of UKEP, Safe Light hopes to improve the lobby for safer work place environment as well as safer conditions on the road for school children.

Safe Light - High Visibility Waistcoat gets Dual Light Technology

UK Euro Partner will be the first organisation in the Euro Partner Network to receive and market the new high visibility wasistcoats employing Safe Light's new safety feature 'Dual Light Technology (DLT008).

By using this technology the wearer of the waistcoat greatly improves the safety value. This is because the waistcoat will now provide safety illumination whether or not there is an external light source. All other high visibility waistcoats will only offer protection if there is an external light source present.

Safe Light methodology means you get a waistcoat with 2/2 banding and Dual Light Technology for the same price you might expect to pay for the most basic visibility waistcoat.

Safe Light develops safety products to better serve the safety of workers and the general public ans as a result of their efforts are leading the way for visible safety in Europe.
