Leading Finnish renewable fuels and oil company selects ALTAIR io™ 4 for efficient management of hundreds of gas detectors and improved safety compliance
In a challenging work environment, with many employees using gas detectors throughout their shifts, the company faced a series of complex issues:
- ·Managing and assigning hundreds of gas detectors to a large workforce was increasingly challenging and demanded significant resources.
- ·The fast-paced, variable conditions at operational sites necessitated an agile and responsive approach to safety monitoring.
- ·Rapid and accurate analysis of safety incidents was essential for immediate action and developing long-term preventative strategies.
Acknowledging these challenges, the company looked for an innovative solution that would not only meet their immediate safety and operational requirements but also offer strategic insights for ongoing enhancement. The integration of the Connected Work platform driven by the ALTAIR io™ 4 Connected Gas Detector and MSA Grid marked a significant advancement in safety management.
Premaire Combination Airline Escape: Available with G1 Mask and M1 LGDV
We often discuss with customers the complexity of maintaining different products, various spare parts, product fitness training, and services. To mitigate this, we aim to provide economical solutions to address these challenges, resulting in a lower total cost of ownership.

By building the G1 Mask-based total respiratory product platform, significant cost reductions can be achieved, empowering you to make financially wise decisions for your operations. The G1 Full facemask seamlessly adapts to any MSA breathing apparatus or supplied air system from the EN range, ensuring compatibility and ease of use, simplifying your decision-making process.

V-Gard® Winter Liners: Certified Protection with Standout Style
Working outdoors while wearing hard hats?
Stay warm and compliant as temperatures plummet by with essential accessories for harsh winters: the V-Gard Winter Liners will provide you with superior under-the-helmet warmth and protection.

You can choose from four models, including the V-Gard Supreme, which offers three layers of flame resistance and resistance to arc exposure, or the best-selling V-Gard knit cap.
Best safety practice advice: Personal seasonal protection should not be worn under the safety helmet, as it may compromise the hard hat’s positioning and fit on the head, resulting in the safety helmet losing its expected protection performance.
The V-Gard Winter Liners have been tested and certified with the V-Gard family of hard hats. This helps to make sure they will not compromise the expected protection performance of MSA’s industrial safety helmets. Have you noticed that these winter liners are listed in the EN certificates for our hard hats?
