Safety Products Global (SPG), a global leader in safety cutting solutions, is strengthening its operating model across Europe—combining the scale, innovation, and capabilities of its global organization with dedicated local teams positioned closer to customers and distribution partners.
By more closely integrating its U.S. operations, brands, and product innovation with its expanding European organization, SPG will be able to respond faster to regional market needs while providing customers and partners with the resources, expertise, and product portfolio of a global manufacturer.
“By bringing our global strengths closer to our regional teams, we can move faster for our customers and partners while unlocking the next phase of growth together,” said Jarrod Streng, President & CEO of Safety Products Global.
Through a partnership with Safety Products Global, industrial customers gain access to three leading safety cutting brands—Klever, Slice, and PHC—providing a comprehensive portfolio that enables organizations to standardize safety cutting solutions, reduce workplace laceration risk, and drive greater productivity and cost savings across their operations.
SPG is also expanding the reach of Slice through retail channels, bringing its innovative finger-friendly cutting technology beyond the workplace and into homes around the world.
Supporting this next phase of international growth is an expanded leadership and commercial organization. Katharina Batz, CFO, will help lead SPG’s European finance and operations, while Bryan Mason assumes the newly created role of Head of International Sales, leading the company's expanded commercial team across EMEA and APAC. Tom Glady also joins the organization to support sales across the DACH region, providing customers and distribution partners with dedicated, application-focused expertise directly in the market.
The strengthened European organization represents another step in SPG’s strategy to operate as one global company with strong local execution—bringing decision-making, expertise, and customer support closer to the markets it serves while leveraging the full capabilities of Safety Products Global.
