With 3M’s acquisition of Capital Safety, two of the industry's leaders in personal protective equipment and fall protection products have joined forces. Bringing together a history of innovation and excellence, 3M Fall Protection can now offer its customers access to the quality products, people and service of the trusted DBI-SALA® and Protecta® brands. 3M Fall Protection can help elevate your employees’ safety and comfort to new heights..
For over 75 years, at-height workers around the world have trusted DBI-SALA® products to help them get the job done well and get home safely. Today, 3M proudly carries on that tradition, delivering premier DBI-SALA® fall protection solutions that enable workers to do their best work safely and comfortably.
Every at-height worker deserves to be safe, no matter the size or nature of the job. That’s why Protecta® has become the choice of safety managers looking for reliable fall protection solutions that comply with safety regulations and help their workers get the job done. Now, as a part of a global and trusted brand in safety, 3M™ Protecta® solutions are the industry’s choice for fall protection that’s both practical and reliable.
In August 2015, 3M completed its acquisition of Capital Safety, a leading global provider of fall protection equipment. As a result, Capital Safety became part of 3M's Personal Safety Division and will be known in the future as 3M Fall Protection.

“Lighten up.” It’s what at-height workers have been trying to do for decades. That’s why we created the DBI-SALA® ExoFit™ Strata™ safety harness. It features a first-of-its-kind load distribution system that literally takes the weight off workers’ shoulders, resulting in a harness that is more comfortable, cooler and lighter to wear.
Climb ladder safety systems with ease and confidence. It’s simple with the new DBI-SALA® Lad-Saf™ X3 3/8" (9.5mm) detachable cable sleeve. This portable connection device connects the worker's harness to the ladder cable and glides freely up and down the cable as the worker climbs.
When seconds matter, you need a fall rescue plan that’s fast and effective—all while minimizing risk for others. Make self-rescue your first option with the DBI-SALA® Self-Rescue. It easily connects to your current safety harness and provides a way of escape from suspension. Coming soon.
3M’s Capital Safety will host fall protection demonstrations throughout the U.S. May 2-6, 2016, during OSHA’s National Safety Stand-Down.
For all objects at height - including humans - the focus always should be on preventing things from falling rather than on catching objects, or on limited the damage after they fall.
Now through November 2016, training classes are available on select dates in the Chicago Metro in Orland Park. Get comprehensive training, with practical, hands-on experience meeting OSHA and ANSI standards.
