Reflection on Legacy and Transformation

At a Town Hall event on May 7, 2025, Safetech took a moment to reflect on its journey and recent strides in integration with the Jebsen & Jessen Group.

More than four decades after starting as a family-run business with just four founders, Safetech has evolved into a national brand employing over 170 people. Managing Director of Safetech Equipment, Australia - Material Handling Chris White likened Safetech’s transformation to that of a luxury brand shifting into a high-performance Formula 1 team—streamlining internal systems without slowing down.

Integration has gained traction since the acquisition of Safetech as a Jebsen & Jessen member last year. The company’s ERP and CRM system rollouts were recently celebrated, alongside key engineering and product milestones.

Notable project highlights included the installation of large-scale gantry cranes for Western Australia’s new desalination plant and the development of stainless steel-lined freight hoists for the Sydney Fish Market.

Meanwhile, Managing Director of Safetech Service & MHE Equipment, Australia - Material Handling Vince Di Costanzo announced the upcoming merger of the EMS team into Safetech, effective July 1, 2025, further strengthening installation and service capabilities.

With deep appreciation for its staff, Safetech remains committed to building on its legacy and experience for a more agile, connected future alongside its wider Jebsen & Jessen family.
