SlateSafety Announces Official Partnership with SKC-West, Inc. 

SlateSafety is excited to announce its official partnership with SKC-West, Inc., a premier supplier for industrial hygiene, environmental and safety equipment in the western United States.

SKC-West, Inc. will be a reseller for SlateSafety’s award-winning physiological monitoring solution. The BAND V2 is an arm-worn, wearable monitor that tracks heart rate, exertion levels and core temperature in real-time to empower safety leaders to protect their teams and prevent injuries at work.

This partnership is an exciting step for SlateSafety to reach more teams and leaders within the OEHS community. Originally founded to serve the first responder community, SlateSafety has seen a sizable pull into the occupational safety sector. This partnership will provide greater opportunities for customers to interact with a trusted name and be introduced to advanced technology.

Since its founding in 1972 SKC-West has been a premier provider of occupational health and safety instrumentation. As an industry leader, SKC-West actively engages in the pursuit of novel and innovative solution providers for its customer base. 

“Our customers expect only the very best in instrumentation. We’re seeing an ever-increasing need for new technologies to solve problems in new ways,” said SKC-West President Beth Sackett. “Partnering with a technology-forward company like SlateSafety demonstrates the advancements of safety technology for our customers and we see incredible value in the increased awareness to safety this platform can provide.”

The SlateSafety platform enables workforces to know how and where their teams are in real-time via an arm-worn wearable device. The next-generation solution uses advanced analytics and sensor data from the worker to send alerts when they are susceptible to heat stress or overexertion. Safety leaders can make informed decisions in real time as well as drive behavioral change in their workforce. In the varied scenarios of industrial hygiene and industrial safety the solution has become an intricate part of providing insight for worker safety.

Chris Ward, VP of Growth at SlateSafety, expressed excitement about this new alliance. “This partnership provides the needed reach and expertise to our growing customer base on the West Coast. Top to bottom the SKC-West team is made up of highly experienced team members and we’re excited to augment the top-level SlateSafety technology with deep industry experience.”
