MSA Safety
Fall protection solutions for working at height in the aviation industry
MSA has been in the business of safety at height since 1930. Today it is at the forefront in both the supply and the range of innovative fall protection products.
With a focus on aerospace and a partnership approach to developing solutions to meet customer needs within this sector, MSA’s engineers have worked closely with some of the major aircraft manufacturers and many other key players in the aviation industry.
