Elevated Safety Systems (ESS) is an ISO 9001 Manufacturer and all third party testing is conducted by Underwriters Laboratory (UL). We strive to provide safe, secure, state of the art fall protection systems
that can be trusted. OSHA states, " Suspension in a fall arrest system can result in unconsciousness followed by death in less than 30 minutes." OSHA requires a response time to a suspended worker as quickly as possible and presumably in less than 10 minutes. Each year the number one OSHA violation in industry is for inadequate fall protection. Liability coverage for companies is a substantial cost. The experts advise to have a RESCUE PLAN, BUT THAT IS NOT ENOUGH! After a worker has become suspended by their safety harness, serious injury or death can occur within 5 to 30 minutes. If a Rescue Plan takes more than a few minutes to assemble equipment and personnel, that is not a Rescue Plan, that may be a Recovery Effort. The designs of Elevated Safety Systems gives industry workers and individuals the MEANS to implement a Self-Rescue Plan. To just have a Rescue Plan is not enough. You must have the MEANS to accomplish it and very quickly. With our designs, you can do just that. To rescue a person suspended in a harness or trapped in an elevated position, not only takes considerable time and equipment but it also puts those at risk who are performing the technical rescue. With products from Elevated Safety Systems, you are able to SELF-RESCUE in less time than it would take for someone to call 911 for help. The unique descending ability of all of our products are like nothing else on the market. Dr. Norman Wood, owner of ESS and the inventor of the Survivor™ Harness, FireEscape™ NFPA Harness, the FireEscape EDS™(Emergency Descent System), the Rescue One Emergency Descent System Harness, the SRT/TAC™ Harness, and the Bomb Technician™ Rescue Harness, has been awarded the following United States Patents for fall protection designs; #8,177,026, #8,651,235, #8,678,134, and #D684,845. From Home, Office, College Dorm, Construction and Utility Workers, Firefighters, EMS/Rescue, Military, Police/SRT, to Treestand Hunters and active people alike, our systems provide safety unlike no others with the unique ability to quickly and safely descend from 20 to several hundred feet. The Survivor™ Harness and the FireEscape™ NFPA Harness are for Firefighters to have an escape system that they can carry with them at all times. With both designs, they are able to do just that. These light weight, compact, easy to use designs fit in the Bunker Pants Cargo Pocket, on the ESS Truck Belt or on a hook. They are with the Firefighter at all times for instant use in an emergency. THESE SYSTEMS ARE THE FIRST OF THEIR KIND THAT CAN BE USED ON AN UNCONSCIOUS FIRE VICTIM OR INJURED FIREFIGHTER. The FireEscape EDS™ (Emergency Descent System) Harness, is a home, office, or dorm emergency fire escape system. It allows for you to escape a burning home or building by quickly and safely getting to the ground and away from the fire. The FireEscape EDS™ is for anyone who lives, sleeps or works in a two story building or higher. Models from 50 to 600 feet will allow you to safely get to the ground in an emergency. If you are trapped in a building fire, you may only have seconds to escape. The Industrial Rescue One EDS Harness eliminates the dangers of Suspension Trauma for construction and utility workers by allowing a suspended person to quickly lower themselves to the ground. The Industrial Rescue One EDS Harness has four models for 30, 60, 90 and 120 feet descents. It also has been certified for a 300 foot descent. Specialized models can be provided for your specific needs. The Hunter Rescue One EDS Harness has 32 feet of line and allows for a safe and confident hunt that you will be able to quickly and safely respond to any treestand fall emergency. "I will never go into a treestand without mine," Dr. Norman Wood. The SRT/TAC™ Harness is a "One Hand, or Hands Free" descending tactical harness that can be removed in approximately 5 seconds with ONE hand. Your weapon hand is ALWAYS FREE or both hands can be free during a hands free descent. The Bomb Technician™ Rescue Harness is worn underneath the blast suit. It provides the means of dragging a downed Technician away from danger. The Rescue Strap is adjustable to allow for it's positioning between the protective collar and helmet.
