Envelope of Safety® - Our Commitment to Excellence
Since 1969, TOMAR has been dedicated to a singular mission: providing reliable emergency equipment that protects lives and property. To uphold this commitment while delivering tangible value to communities and agencies worldwide, we developed the Envelope of Safety®—a framework that defines our approach to safety, innovation, and performance.
This framework is built on seven core elements, each representing a fundamental way TOMAR enhances operational effectiveness for those entrusted with public safety. Every product and solution we engineer is intentionally designed with these principles in mind, ensuring uncompromising reliability, superior performance, and maximum protection for responders and the communities they serve.
Envelope of Safety® - A Holistic Approach to Safety and Innovation
At TOMAR, we recognize that true safety extends beyond individual products—it is a comprehensive framework that ensures protection at every stage of an emergency. The Envelope of Safety® represents our commitment to delivering advanced, integrated solutions that enhance response times, mitigate risks, and protect both responders and the public.
Each of its seven core elements is purposefully engineered into every TOMAR product, reinforcing our mission to safeguard lives and infrastructure while supporting municipalities, government agencies, and emergency service leaders in their critical roles.
Private Citizens and the Public in Immediate Risk.
The first priority of the Envelope of Safety® is safeguarding those at imminent risk—whether private citizens, employees in high-hazard industries, or communities facing emergencies. TOMAR’s industrial signaling and initiating devices provide critical early warnings, preventing injury, mitigating damage, and ultimately saving lives.
