This past March the safety industry lost a legend with the passing of George MacKay. With over 40 years in the industry, MacKay was the founder of Uni-Hoist, Fall Soft and the GD MacKay Co Ltd, as well as a pioneer in the confined space fall protection market. Safehold Ltd is honoured to announce that the MacKay family and executors reached an agreement on 1st September 2022 to sell the company assets to Safehold Ltd. Oliver Auston, CEO of Safehold Ltd had been a friend and business associate of MacKay’s for over 20 years.
Safehold and Auston feel the continuation of the business and future product development will be in honour of MacKay’s legacy.There is no change to the product quality or availability. All products will continue to be manufactured and distributed via our existing domestic partners in the US and Canada. Lorraine MacKay, George’s daughter, will remain with Safehold as a Consultant Product Specialist and will support the transition. All new orders and enquiries should be sent to Loraine at lmk@safe-hold.com.
