Later this year, former pilot Andy Green will attempt to break the world land speed record by going 1,000mph in the Bloodhound SSC, a supersonic car that is currently being built in Bristol.

SafetyLiftinGear is an official partner of The Bloodhound Project, which has been set up not only to break the record but also to inspire a new generation of scientists, engineers, technicians and mathematicians to take an interest in these fields. SLG are providing a range of material handling products and lifting equipment for the project, ensuring that the Bloodhound is constructed as safely as possible.

We've been extremely busy here at SLG of late - between the Executive Hire Show and a constant barrage of orders from our customers throughout the world, there's scarcely been a quiet moment since January!

Still, we thought we'd take a moment to let you all know what's been going on here this month...

New Faces!

We'd like to extend a warm welcome to Alistair Ross (pictured above), who is now running SafetyLiftinGear's hire operation. This new service allows customers to rent, rather than buy, our various products - this means that our entire range is now available for hire (click here to return to our homepage and browse our products). Alistair is the man in charge of this rental service, and we wish him the very best of luck in this new role.

Sean Small is another new starter - he will be managing our new West London depot when that opens later this year. Welcome and good luck to Sean, too!

New Trucks!

As mentioned above, we've been getting a lot of orders lately, and so we've brought in another 2 pick-up trucks to cope with the growing demand for deliveries. As you can see, both are fully branded with the SafetyLiftinGear name and logo; one will be kept at our Bristol depot, while the other is for our London location. Full details for all 5 SLG depots can be found on our Contact page.

Before anything else, we'd like to wish all of our customers a very Happy New Year! We hope that you all enjoyed the festive period, and that you're looking forward to all that 2015 has to offer.

With this in mind, we are thrilled to introduce you to our quartet of newly-appointed depot managers...
