About us

When looking for workplace safety solutions, you’re always going to have two main priorities: safety and value for money. At SafetyBuyer, we understand that’s always going to be true, no matter the size of your business or organisation - and this is where we aim to help you.

Read on to find out more about who we are, our drive, and what sets us apart. On this page, we offer the warm smile and handshake you get from people who enjoy doing a good job, and who regularly go the extra mile to build lasting relationships.

Our history

SafetyBuyer was founded in 2012 by brothers Ian and Kevin Rowe, a pair of safety supply industry veterans who have spent a combined 40 years of their professional lives in warehouses, sales and marketing, production and purchasing. Taking a cue from some of the inspirational pros they’d worked with in the past, they decided to set up a safety supplies company of their own.

After investing more than 3,000 hours into building the site over a challenging 18-month period, safetybuyer.com launched in July 2013. Almost immediately, we received our first small order for a batch of safety signs - we were up and running.

Flash forward - we’ve now done business with more than 30,000 customers, from small businesses to nationwide conglomerates. Our growth has remained healthy and hard-earned since 2013, but we’ve never forgotten where we came from - we still receive monthly orders from our very first customer, and that’s something we really value.

Our principles

We understand that we’re far from the only company supplying the workplace safety market, so it is essential that we go that extra step. What marks us out from the rest is our ongoing commitment to providing you with a flexible, reactive and personalised service - which means listening carefully to what our customers are telling us.

We simply call it “the TPR effect” - by treating people right, we provide all of our customers with the kind of confidence and trust in our brand that can’t be won with gimmicks and empty promises. There’s nothing too fancy about what we offer at SafetyBuyer - just an ever-growing lineup of safety products, backed up by a consistent, reliable and value-focused service.

"We work hard at being easy people to do business with,
so please shop with us and shop with confidence."
