Fuquay-Varina, NC (PRWEB) September 10, 2014 -- A-Safe, Inc. Settles into Fuquay-Varina; Advanced Manufacturing Firm Expanding Production

U.K.-based manufacturing firm A-Safe, Inc., an advanced manufacturing firm best known for its safety barrier systems, has expended its footprint into southern Wake County. A-Safe, Inc. will lease 10,000 square feet of flex-industrial warehouse establishing the Company’s corporate, administrative, warehousing and assembly operations. The Company has planned a second phase to their project that includes constructing a 120,000 to 150,000 sf manufacturing and distribution facility that will be home to the Company’s North American headquarters, sales, administrative and customer service divisions. Once completed, A-Safe, Inc. will bring their total US investment to $19 million and is expected to result in the creation of 130 full time jobs.

“Global companies like A-Safe recognize that Wake County and the Fuquay-Varina business community is a great place for businesses to thrive because of the quality of the local workforce, access to an innovative and growing customer market place and proven quality infrastructure,” stated Paul Katsirubas, A-Safe’s President and Managing Director. “With three decades of dedication to innovation, product development and manufacturing, A-Safe, Inc. is looking forward to expanding its product line and we are confident that our products will continue to exceed and meet the safety industry standards as our Company aims to become a lead manufacturer in the US. Our US location has already been successful in new markets including Latin America, South America, Canada and the Caribbean.”

Founded by David Smith in the United Kingdom in 1984 as a small polythene manufacturing company, A-Safe, Inc. has become one of the industry leaders in safety barrier systems having equipped and installed their safety barrier systems for companies such as Kimberly Clark, DHL, Coca-Cola General Motors, BMW, Airbus and Toyota. The Company’s clients also include major international airports such as Paris’s Charles de Gaulle Airport, Dublin Airport, Dubai and London’s Heathrow and Gatwick Airports. As of 2010, A-Safe, Inc. has 10 global offices around the world that includes offices in the US, France, Italy,
Scandinavia, Australia, Germany and Malaysia.

“I am very proud to have A-Safe, Inc. as one of Fuquay-Varina’s newest companies. Our community continues to be a top choice for manufacturing firms looking to expand into the Triangle Region,” said John W. Byrne, Mayor of Fuquay-Varina. “A-Safe, Inc. is a first rate quality employer that will add greatly to the quality of life for Fuquay-Varina’s residents and businesses. I thank Mr. Katsirubas for his commitment to Fuquay-Varina and will see to it that the Town helps him in becoming a local business leader.”

The timing of A-Safe’s second phase of expansion that includes constructing a new 140,000 square-feet manufacturing facility that will create 130 jobs has not yet been finalized. Fuquay-Varina is on the short list for final consideration.

"The Town of Fuquay-Varina is excited about the growth opportunities that exist for Mr. Katsirubas and the A-Safe corporation and is committed to aid in the company's efforts to transition its headquarters permanently to Fuquay-Varina," stated Town Manager Adam Mitchell. The Town stands ready to be a partner in facilitating A-Safe's long-term development plans."

“Recruitment of a company of this caliber is very competitive,” said Jim Seymour, Economic Development Director for the Town of Fuquay-Varina. “I look forward to working with my counter parts at the county and state to assist the Company in its future expansion plans that will preserve Fuquay-Varina’s place on the map as a destination for advanced manufacturing firms looking to expand into our region.”
