About Us

Roodsafe was founded in the year 2000 by Managing Director, Simon Rood. We are a market leader in the height safety solutions industry by offering a range turnkey solutions, products and services including bespoke works designed to cater to our client’s requirements.

We encourage and value different ideas, perspectives, and styles of thinking. We need a mix of experiences and skills to develop the most innovative ideas to positively shape the impacts of our client's projects.
