| Mitigating the inherent risks associated with mining is of primary concern to MSA, stemming right back to the company’s early beginnings in 1912 when the founders set out to design an electric cap lamp ( rather then open flame which was the norm in those days) which would eradicate the many fatal explosions underground caused by methane gas. Today, the company remains committed to protecting workers in the mining industry and offers a range of quality products for mining applications across the board. These include: - Fall Protection Systems - Gas Detection Instruments - Hearing Protection - Head Protection - Eye Protection - Respirators/ masks - Gloves A key element of MSA’s product line is the compatibility of the individual pieces. This integrated system allows MSA helmets to accommodate the simultaneous use of other supplementary protection. Training and ongoing support is the cornerstone to safety compliance and reduced injuries. MSA plays a pivotal role in the planning and implementation of training programmes for mining companies. The company’s philosophy to build long-term relationships with its customers is conducive to developing an in-depth understanding of specific needs and therefore enables MSA to tailor its service accordingly. The company’s under-pinning desire to make a difference is highlighted by its mission statement: that men and women may work in safety and that they, their families and their communities may live in health throughout the world. MSA’s vision is to the leading innovator and provider of quality products, related technologies and services that protect people’s health, safety and the environment in all key markets MSA serves. |
