As part of ProDriven Global Brands' broader strategy, the center serves as its latest innovation hub while furthering Werner's capabilities in Austin to support the continued growth of its height safety business.
“Expanding our height safety platform is a key strategic initiative for ProDriven Global Brands,” said Gary Scott, chief executive officer, ProDriven Global Brands. “One way we are supporting that growth is through innovation hubs that bring talent, customers and expertise together to respond to evolving market needs, accelerate innovation and leverage opportunities across our global business.”
Scott said the Werner Height Safety Center in Austin is the latest example of that commitment, expanding the company’s efforts to deliver hands-on training and education directly to customers.
Height safety continues to be a strategic growth platform for Werner as customers increasingly seek comprehensive solutions that extend beyond products to include expertise, education, and trusted partnership.
“Werner has earned strong end-user preference in access and fall protection, and we see a meaningful opportunity to continue elevating the Werner brand as a leader in height safety solutions,” said Brian Kagen, president, North America, ProDriven Global Brands. “The Werner Height Safety Center supports that strategy by helping us continue to grow our Height Safety platform across construction safety, post-construction safety and industrial engineered applications.
Within the Werner Height Safety Center, customers, distributors, safety professionals and Werner teams can collaborate, experience solutions firsthand and participate in immersive learning designed to help people work safely at height.
In addition, they can engage directly with Werner experts and provide feedback that helps to shape future solutions.
"Innovation moves faster when the people developing products are working side by side with the professionals who use them," said Eric Miller, vice president and general manager, Werner Fall Protection. "The Werner Height Safety Center allows us to listen, collaborate and respond with greater speed, bringing together engineering, product development, manufacturing and distribution to transform customer insights into market-leading solutions more quickly.”
