In a first for the UK Construction Industry, Roofspace Solutions have invested in Rombit’s innovative wearables to provide state of the art safety and support for its workforce, putting worker welfare at the forefront of its operations.
Roofspace & Net4 (Rombit’s official UK partner) have worked closely on deploying the lone worker solution to their Contracts Managers and after care team. The solution provides immediate alerts if a worker is in distress, suffers a shock or fall as well as alerting if they become motionless. It is also possible to remotely check if a worker is safe, providing proactive safety measures. By weaving the technology into its H&S practices the wearable provides Roofspace’s employees with increased protection, with the knowledge that an alarm will be raised in the event of an incident.
The devices are connected via the mobile network, which enables UK wide coverage and are battery powered to provide all day use. By utilising the latest positioning technology and various sensors, alarms are triggered automatically. They can be worn on a wrist, arm or ankle and provide haptic feedback to the user as well as flashing LEDs.
Mike Corless, Construction Manager
“At Roofspace Solutions we take the health and safety of our colleagues, contractors and customers very seriously. We are always looking at ways we can improve safety within our business, especially for those who work alone. The introduction of the wearables is a big step forward in ensuring our team are safe at all times and in the unlikely event of an accident, that we can ensure medical assistance is available as quickly as possible.”
Mike Corless, Construction Manager

The Rombit Wearable gives companies the ability to surround their employees with a network of IoT-driven solutions that improve their wellbeing and lower the risk for injuries. With solutions such as lone worker support, driver behaviour, collision avoidance, evacuation and others, any worker will be fully connected.
With this connectivity, the devices update workers in real-time for upcoming danger. All devices can communicate with each other and with the Rombit platform. If there is any incident, the live location of the worker in question will be shared with colleagues on the platform. This way, the worker can be located quickly, and reaction time is shortened considerably.

Associated British Ports (ABP) is the first UK ports group to invest in innovative wearable safety devices. The wearables are designed by the leading safety solutions company Rombit. ABP’s IT innovation team worked closely with Rombit and Rombit’s official UK partner Net4 on this trial. Although the wearables had been extensively tested in busy mainland European ports, like Antwerp, their use by ABP is a first for any organisation in the UK.
ABP’s extensive work to optimise safety across its ports resulted in the lowest number ever of Lost Time Accidents in 2021, and continuous improvement in workplace safety is a core value shared by ABP and Rombit. Building on the existing PPE (high visibility clothing, eye protection, safety helmets, protective boots and gloves), this new technology provides connected workers with a new level of protection. Following a successful trial of the Rombit safety devices at ABP’s Port of Garston, Liverpool, the design was refined to adapt to ABP’s specific requirements and will be rolled out further.
The new safety devices, which are worn on the wrist, arm or ankle, and attached to machinery, have a wide range of uses including lone worker support, collision avoidance and evacuation in case of emergency. For example, when a vehicle fitted with the Rombit anchor and a port operative with a Rombit wearable are too close to each other, the devices will vibrate and light up, alerting both the driver and the pedestrian to avoid a potential collision.
The speed of reaction to lone workers in an incident is critical to minimising the danger. In case of an emergency, a lone worker can use the device to request help. Similarly, the device can alert the system if the lone worker has a fall or shock, or if no motion is detected at all for a specified period of time. This enables a swift assessment and reaction to a situation helping to minimise risk.
As Mike McCartain, ABP’s Group Director of Safety, Engineering & Marine said,
“At ABP, we put safety at the heart of everything we do, and we continuously invest in innovative ways to sustain our exemplary safety record and the confidence of our staff. We are delighted to be the first company in the UK to work in partnership with Rombit and trial these cutting-edge new safety gadgets in our ports, supporting the development of this useful technology.”
Evert Bulcke, CEO of Rombit said,
“Cocreation is at the heart of operational success. In working with Rombit, and steering the product to meet port logistics requirements, ABP proved a very valuable partner. The result is an IoT safety solution that saves lives while minimising false positives and negatives.”
