Repurposing existing space will increase company’s production
capacity by 30 to 50%
With global demand for its industry-leading connected safety
wearables at an all-time high, Blackline Safety Corp. (TSX: BLN)
has announced that it has expanded its manufacturing capacity at
its Calgary, AB headquarters. The expansion – which is poised to
increase Blackline’s production capacity by 30 to 50% – was
achieved by repurposing the company’s existing space.
The announcement comes on the heels of a milestone year which
saw the company’s global customer base climb to 1,800, with 150,000
workers protected by the company’s game-changing safety wearables
across North America, Europe, Middle East, Australia and New
Zealand.
Over the last year, global demand for Blackline’s real-time
connected safety technology grew an average of 30%, while product
rentals rose 214% and the company’s cartridge line saw 165%
growth.
“Amid the rising demand for our products, the expansion enables
us to assemble increased volumes of products onsite and maintain
Blackline’s industry-best lead times for order fulfillment,” said
Kevin Meyers, Blackline Safety COO. “Our customers depend on
Blackline to keep their workers safe, and we are committed to
ensuring product availability and reliability to meet the needs of
our growing user base as we transform the industrial workplace
through state-of-the-art technology.”
Blackline’s expanded manufacturing area now spans more than
11,850 square feet on the main floor of its headquarters – a 49%
increase in space. The repurposing was made possible due to space
being freed up as a result of more employees choosing a hybrid work
model, and by moving the company’s development facilities to the
building’s second floor.
Blackline’s breakthrough technology is cloud-based, featuring
GPS-enabled safety sensors and devices that leverage the Internet
of Things (IoT) to connect workers to live monitoring. The platform
includes high-performance emergency response and evacuation
management capabilities as well as contract tracing. It connects
employees with software that pinpoints their location, enables
back-and-forth information sharing and collects vital data, making
it possible to detect the exact location of a gas leak or determine
how often workers are travelling through high-risk areas. The
company’s wearables are offered in two robust models — one
connected via a cellular network and another via satellite.
