What Code Red Safety does
Code Red Safety is a U.S. industrial safety services company founded in 1995 and headquartered in Hammond, Indiana (with its corporate office in Valparaiso, Indiana). The company delivers a comprehensive suite of safety services to enterprise customers in refining, petrochemical, construction, power/utilities, steel, and related industrial markets, including turnaround solutions, OSHA- and NFPA-trained rescue teams, safety staffing from a database of 15,000+ certified professionals, fire services, and OSHA/NFPA/ANSI training. It also operates the Critical 2-Way Communications division for Motorola radio rentals and the Turnaround Logistics division, which supplies blast resistant shelters and portable buildings in partnership with Dynamic Air Shelters.
Its core proprietary product is RED i/O Confined Space Monitoring, an integrated hardware-and-software system that combines 4K infrared cameras, AI-driven computer vision (PPE detection, personnel tracking, hazard identification), atmospheric gas monitoring, electronic badge access control, and two-way communications inside a mobile command center. Equipment offerings span Motorola radios, breathing air systems, fall protection, respiratory protection (3M Scott and MSA), gas detection, and PPE from leading manufacturers. In July 2023 the company acquired Detection & Measurement Systems (DMS) of Houston, adding specialized instrumentation, analyzers, and alarm products.
Code Red Safety generates revenue through a mix of professional services (staffing, rescue, turnaround execution, training), equipment rentals (described as quote-based with multi-year contracts), equipment sales, and increasingly proprietary technology deployments. Go-to-market is enterprise field sales backed by eight U.S. branch offices in the Gulf Coast, Midwest, and West Coast, with 24/7 emergency response and direct job-site delivery. The company is privately held by Hastings Equity Partners as part of the Coyote Industrial Holdings platform formed in July 2019.
