Forward Thinking From the Ground Up

SixAxis was launched by two sales-guys-turned-entrepreneurs who, in 2002 went out on their own because they felt they could do things better. Built quite literally from dirt floors up, the company has grown into a sustainable, integrated enterprise of innovative, market-facing brand solutions, all with safety and compliance in mind.

Our Mission

To provide superior quality, American-made products and services preferred by employers across vertical markets to help eliminate the leading cause of injury at work (slips, trips, and falls) while keeping operators safe and efficient and businesses productive and profitable.

Locations

We deliver high-quality fall protection solutions from each of our facilities to companies worldwide. The company has developed a portfolio of diverse brands and advanced products that increase safety, boost productivity, and ensure compliance.  We work to keep people safe every day.
