About Us
In 1989, the British Columbia Research and Development Institute, an internationally recognized Government research facility, located at the University of British Columbia, developed the Safe Solution for Mr. Don Dafoe, President of Global Safe Technologies Inc.
The company has operated locally in British Columbia for several years before decided to move Canada wide and finally to expand internationally. Now it is also represented in the Australia, New Zealand and Pacific islands, US and soon will be in several Asian and European countries.
The Australian operations have started in December 2003 and since that date the company has gone from strength to strength. Today it operates in all states of Australia and caters for hundreds of clients varying from small domestic to large international companies.
The Australian operation works in a franchise system and has several dealers servicing all states and territories.
The company every year since its inception has introduced new products and systems to the market and today is the leading supplier of floor safety products and services. Today we can non slip treat about 85 to 90 percent of all floor types of floor surfaces. We can also provide our clients with superior penetrating sealers and surface enhancers.
Being part of a large International Floor Safety Network we can ensure that our clients can experience the same outstanding service across countries and continents.
In Australia as per 2005 NOSI statistics workplaces had in excess of 28,000 slip-fall injuries, several of which requiring hospital care and or long and costly rehabilitation. Slip falls in Australia estimated to cost the Australian community a staggering 3 billion dollars annually and growing at a very rapid rate due to our aging population. Above 65 years age it is the leading cause of accidental death and disability, higher than automobile accidents.
