Supporting you, contributing to society
Open Safety is part of Deep Life
Group. All Group companies are operating fully,
supporting customers around the world with their security, medical
diagnostic and PPE needs. We are shipping on time in
full volume.
Open Safety was one of the earliest
companies to initiate measures to protect clients and staff
from the coronavirus. To enable us to contribute positively
during the crisis, on 20th January 2020 we separated staff into
isolated small teams, each with their own spaces, facilities and
entrances, completing these building works and readiness by
mid-February, six weeks prior to lockdowns starting. Our
whole business group could then focus on serving our customers
during the crisis and continues to do so.
For
meetings, we offer Zoom, Skype, WhatsApp or can provide full viral
screening and PPE when engaging directly.
Helping us all mitigate the effects
Our Group companies addressed the
detection, protection and security aspects of the pandemic as our
contribution to society to mitigate and limit its effects.
We avoided the rush to develop new
ventilators - it was our judgement from the outset that these
would do more harm than good - better to increase production of
certified product. Instead we focused on the following
beneficial activities:

Continued support to our military and law enforcement
customers with equipment and training, helping them to
maintain their fight against terrorism, piracy, kidnapping,
and avoid regional instability in these tumultuous times.
As oil prices tumble, our commercial diving rebreather
continues to be available to order, enabling dive service
operators to reduce cost while improving safety.
We offered 200,000 CPAP masks from stock. More remain

Contagion Controls Ltd
Relaunched the AVM mask, developed for the original
SARS-1 outbreak in 2002/2003, it provides 100%
respiratory protection from viruses in a format that is
comfortable for medical staff to wear all day, every
day. The AVM mask uses a combination of electrostatic
filtering with a nano-silver coated molecular sieve that
captures particles in the 60nm to 180nm range and
neutralises them. The AVM mask is unique in providing
this protection in a compact mask.
Contagion Controls also produce in its facilities FFP3
masks, coveralls and a wide range of conventional clinical
PPE, fully certified.
