Blackline Safety Corp., a global pioneer in connected safety technology, has announced that it has secured a $1.9 million deal with a South African energy company.

The deal is the largest in Blackline’s Middle East & Africa (MEA) region (Rest of World segment) and marks the company’s first significant contract in Africa. The energy company purchased approximately 500 G7c devices for their plant workers and almost 500 G6 devices to protect their contractors while they are on site. The company also purchased G7 and G6 Docks, Blackline’s simple solution to calibrating, bump testing, and charging their wearable devices.
