Real Safety’s green transition journey
Real Safety recently spoke to a film crew sent by the Danish Business Authority about our approach to the green transition and sustainability. That resulted in a great article – and video case.

“The goal is to be number one in the world for sustainability in our industry”
Until recently, Real Safety in Esbjerg had not had a structured approach to the green transition and sustainability, as it had not really been a priority for customers. The expectation is, however, that an increasing focus on sustainability will give companies with a clear green profile competitive advantages, and this has made it interesting for Real Safety to set concrete sustainability initiatives in motion.
Torben Farup founded Real Safety in 2007. He had been able to ascertain that a large part (approx. 33% – of all workplace accidents), happen because people slip, fall or trip on a surface. He has made it his mission to try to reduce this number.

Real Safety supplies anti-slip solutions to companies and organizations both in Denmark and abroad. And it certainly hasn’t escaped Torben Farup’s attention, just how much sustainability has started to come up in the general debate – along with increased reporting requirements in connection with ESG.
