Blackline Safety wins dual OH&S Magazine New Product of the Year awards
September 25 2018 - 4:18PM
Blackline Safey Corp. (“Blackline”) (TSXV: BLN) received two awards
from OH&S Magazine in the United States, recognizing leading
innovation delivered by its G7 Insight program. Replacing
traditional ‘beep-and-flash’ gas monitors with connected
technology, G7 Insight is the only standalone gas detector to
combine built-in cellular communication, plug-and-play gas sensor
cartridges, an online compliance dashboard and automated data
analytics.
“Manufacturers in this industry are developing better products
at a rapid clip, products that in many cases are connected, as well
as products that are more comfortable and more protective for their
customers' workers, as they compete in this fast-growing global
market,” said OH&S Editor Jerry Laws. “Informing our readers
and online audience about the best new products available to solve
their safety and health challenges has always been central to our
magazine’s mission, and this contest is an essential part of our
outreach to the industry.”
Businesses must ensure that their gas detection program meets
regulatory compliance standards, including proving that detectors
are used by employees and that the sensors of each detector are
regularly tested and calibrated. G7 Insight solves these problems
by integrating cellular communications into every G7 detector. When
in areas of connectivity, G7 detectors communicate all testing,
calibration, usage and alert data to the Blackline Safety Network,
automating regulatory compliance data collection and reporting.
“Most businesses that use gas detection equipment struggle to
account for the ongoing testing and calibration of gas sensors.
Labor-intensive manual processes take time to collect data from the
field, review it and report it to stakeholders,” said Sean Stinson,
VP Sales & Product Management. “While some competitors have
tried to solve this problem, their networked docking stations
cannot account for detectors that haven’t been recently tested or
calibrated. Only G7 Insight addresses this compliance gap directly,
leveraging turn-key cellular communications built into every
detector. With a few minutes of daily connectivity, each G7 gas
detector automatically uploads every test result to our online
software, powering an online compliance dashboard.”
Beyond regulatory compliance, G7 Insight location-enables gas
readings and alerts recorded by each employee’s G7 detector
throughout the day, uploading data to the Blackline Safety Network.
Second-generation Blackline Analytics software helps businesses
leverage data streamed from every G7 device, providing detailed
visualizations of gas reading heat maps, equipment utilization by
team and team member, gas sensor tests and calibrations, network
connectivity and more. G7 Insight is compatible with Blackline’s
suite of real-time safety services that include lone worker
monitoring and evacuation management.
Blackline’s innovation has been recognized by independent
OH&S Magazine judges, having won a total of six New Product of
the Year awards. To learn about Blackline Safety, visit
