How is RISSafety different?

As Australia’s leading height safety provider, here at RISSafety we develop and manufacture innovative solutions that protect people.

RISSafety is the only national manufacturer and installer of height safety systems. Unlike other companies, RIS manufactures and designs its own product range, ensuring full compliance with Australian Standards.

Protection isn’t just for people working in dangerous situations who rely on our installations and equipment to protect them. It extends to the boards and officers of the end-users of our height safety solutions, who are personally liable for WHS failures in their organisations. It also extends to every RISSafety employee to ensure that, when they are on the job, their wellbeing, and the well-being of those they are working with is a priority.

Our experienced team members provide practical solutions for any height safety, confined space or rope access application, regardless of the size of the project or the industry.

We offer clients a product and service portfolio that satisfies our industry’s stringent hierarchy of control. Our achievements include:

  • 20K+ sites serviced in Aus and NZ
  • 30K+ systems installed
  • 40K+ client safety accreditations
  • 5M+ assets inspected.

 

A deep understanding of changing urban landscapes

Given the complex nature of ever-changing urban landscapes it’s important to trust a height safety company well-versed in that evolution. From commercial and residential towers to stadiums and mine sites, RISSafety has developed compliant access solutions for all, backed by 55 years of experience. We also specialise in retrofit systems for existing structures, ensuring the highest levels of fall risk mitigation with a solution that’s manufactured and compliant with today’s standards.

Our success is evident in our long-standing relationships with clients for retrofit solutions and in the major tenders we have won for new builds and projects. We achieve this by:

  • Taking creative approaches to solving our clients’ height safety needs as well as how we run our own business
  • Showcasing the expertise of our capable and confident team, with deep technical knowledge of the height safety space
  • Fostering a climate that enables and demands that every one of our employees contributes to developing better solutions for our business
  • Being cautious and careful when it comes to designing and installing height safety systems; no shortcuts, ever.
  • A consistent approach in whatever work we do.

While some safety providers limit themselves to specialised niches, RISSafety is a comprehensive hub for everything related to height and confined space work. Our expertise spans across various sectors – HVAC installation, solar installation, building management, and facility management, to name a few.

Our client list includes names from oil and gas, mining, telecommunications, transport, infrastructure and even defence, including a collaboration with the Australian Defence Force.

 

Making Australia’s workplaces safer is in the details

Everything we do comes down to a drive to increase safety in workplaces across Australia – for our client’s staff and contractors, and for our own team. From design and manufacture to installation and inspection, our team are industry leaders in compliance, reliability and training.

RISSafety designs, manufactures and distributes an extensive range of tested and Standards-compliant products, including permanent anchor points, horizontal and vertical fall protection systems, aluminium and fiberglass ladders and walkway systems, fall arrest retractable blocks (inertia reels), tripods and winches for confined spaces.

We have a full range of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) available via our online shop specifically designed for Australian conditions .

Our comprehensive range of height safety solutions is made possible in our own engineering and fabrication workshop. RISSafety employs a team of talented and dedicated fabricators across a wide range of trades, so we can offer our clientele innovative, technical, bespoke solutions for individual site requirements. There is no height safety problem that we cannot solve, and this end-to-end manufacturing and installation process ensures a consistent high standard of quality and service.

We involve the client at every step of the process and do not complete a job until they are fully satisfied.

 

Fit-for-purpose PPE

 Our range of Standards-approved personal protective equipment (PPE) includes lanyards, height safety kits and suspension trauma straps. Our entire range of PPE is designed and tested to meet specific safety criteria to ensure it provides adequate protection. This helps reduce the risk of accidents and injuries when working at heights.

Importantly, our standards-approved PPE comes with clear instructions and guidelines for proper use and maintenance, reducing the risk of incorrect and unsafe use and ensuring that equipment stays in top condition.

Using products from our PPE range also helps business owners prove responsibility to their staff. In the event of an accident or injury, using standards-approved PPE can demonstrate that an employer took appropriate steps to protect their workers.

When it comes to working at heights or within confined spaces, RISSafety is the trusted name in safety. Our dedication to quality, innovation, and a comprehensive approach to height safety has solidified our position as a trusted name in the industry.
