26.02.2024

As Cresto Group celebrates a remarkable 25 years of innovation, excellence, and safety, we stand on the cusp of some exciting new developments that promise to further our legacy and impact. Our journey thus far has been marked by significant milestones, strategic expansions, and a relentless commitment to protecting workers at heights. Yet, as we look forward, our sights are set on new ventures and innovations that will continue to define our leadership in the industry.

Anticipated Launches and Expansions 

  • The Launch of AAK Sweden: As our next milestone, the launch of AAK Safety Sweden represents a significant step forward in our mission. This new venture will merge the expertise and operations in Sweden, creating a new powerhouse of safety solutions tailored for the Swedish market. The AAK Safety brand, long established by our fantastic team in Norway, stands for a commitment to increase knowledge, improve standards, promote efficiency, and keep height-workers safe.
  • Innovative Solutions from Cresto Safety: The anticipation builds as Cresto Safety gears up to unveil brand new, innovative devices designed to revolutionise fall protection. The upcoming launch underscores our dedication to pushing the boundaries of technology and safety, ensuring that every worker at height is equipped with the best possible protection. Our excitement for these innovations reflects our belief in continuous improvement and the power of ingenuity to save lives.
  • UK Growth & New Specialist Training: Recognising the critical importance of knowledge and preparedness, Outreach Rescue is set to introduce new training specifically for emergency service workers in the UK. These courses aim to equip these vital personnel with advanced skills and techniques, ensuring they are prepared for any situation. Abtech Safety in the UK are also planning to expand its operations this year by relocating to new premises. These moves reaffirm our commitment to empowering workers and enhancing safety across all sectors.
  • Strategic Growth Through Market Expansion and Acquisitions: Our vision for the future is not limited to product innovation and training excellence. We are actively exploring opportunities to expand into new markets and grow through strategic acquisitions. This approach has been a cornerstone of our strategy, allowing us to extend our reach, diversify our solutions, and reinforce our position as industry leaders. As we venture into new territories and welcome new partners, we remain focused on our goal of creating safer work environments worldwide.

A Future Built on Safety, Innovation, and Growth 

"As Cresto Group embarks on these exciting new developments, our journey is fuelled by the same principles that have guided us for the past 25 years: innovation, safety, and a deep commitment to protecting lives.

As we stand on the brink of new beginnings and exciting innovations at Cresto Group, I am reminded of the journey that has brought us to this moment and the future we are building together.

The future of safety at heights is not just about the devices we create or the training we provide; it’s about weaving a fabric of trust, innovation, and sustainability into every solution we offer. My vision for Cresto Group is clear – to be the beacon of safety and rescue in the markets we serve, ensuring that every worker returns home safely.

Together, with our dedicated team, valued partners, and loyal customers, we will continue to push boundaries, challenge the status quo, and elevate safety standards to new heights. Here’s to a future where safety knows no limits.”
