June 19, 2015 – Capital Safety announced it has acquired Python Safety Inc., a Woodstock, Ga.-based company that provides “dropped-object prevention solutions” for tools and equipment.

This deal enables us to bring a broader range of solutions to our customer base and helps them keep their employees safe.”
