About Close Safety Systems Ltd.

Building smarter, faster, and more transparent industrial safety.

The Founder

Close Safety Systems was founded by Dale Close, an aerospace engineer and industrial systems specialist. After years working on high-integrity rigs, test facilities, aircraft servicing and production environments, he saw the same problem everywhere: when an Emergency Stop is pressed, nobody knows which one. This slows investigations, disrupts operations, and leaves engineering teams blind.

Dale created Close Safety Systems to deliver a retrofit solution that works for every workshop, factory, and training centre — without rewiring or PLC changes.

Our Mission

To make industrial safety smarter, faster, and more transparent — with technology any facility can deploy in minutes.

We believe safety technology should be accessible, retrofit-friendly, and instantly deployable — without disrupting production.

Emergency Stops are pressed every day across factories, workshops, and training environments — but nobody knows which one triggered the stop. Existing diagnostic solutions are expensive, require rewiring, or rely on PLC integration that SMEs often cannot justify.

We solve this by providing instant E-Stop visibility, without modifying the safety circuit.
