Triax Technologies Receives ‘Health & Safety Solution of the Year’ from New York City Construction Awards

NORWALK, Conn. (April 2, 2018) –  Triax Technologies Inc. announced that it has been named Health and Safety Solution of the Year from the New York City Construction Awards (NYCCA), held in conjunction with the New York Build Expo. 

“We’re proud to be recognized by the NYCCA for our contribution to bringing innovative safety technology to the construction industry,” said Chad Hollingsworth, chief executive officer (CEO) and co-founder, Triax Technologies. “We built Spot-r to give workers and contractors the tools and data they need to build safer and smarter, and it’s rewarding to see our system adding real value.”

Spot-r’s proprietary mesh network and sensor technology gives general contractors and safety personnel total digital visibility into worker and equipment location, activity and safety. The Spot-r Clip, worn by every worker on a project, automatically picks up the Spot-r network on site, documenting time-in and time-out and location. The system sends automatic fall event, unauthorized equipment operator or worker-generated notifications to designated supervisors, helping to improve injury response time by up to 91 percent.

In an event that requires evacuation, superintendents can activate an evacuation alarm to each worker’s wearable device, which can be amplified by 100-decibel, flashing Spot-r EvacTags placed around the jobsite.
