Twiceme Technology has announced its partnership with LIFT Safety. The collaboration focuses on upgrading the LIFT RADIX Type II Safety Helmet.
The upgraded RADIX helmet will feature an embedded Twiceme near-field communications (NFC) chip under the shell to add a new level of safety and preparedness to everyday wear.
The RADIX launched in the fall of 2022 as the company’s first Type II safety helmet offering. The RADIX features a four-point LUX Suspension system, which allows the helmet to fit securely on the head. Additionally, a magnetic quick-lock and adjustable chinstrap support individuals working at height or on the ground. Its ventilated outer shell protects against jobsite impact hazards. Two years later, the company is innovating the interior with Twiceme technology.
Twiceme's Help the Helpers (HTH) technology, embedded in the shell of a helmet and accessible via smartphone, supports workplace safety by providing information to first responders.
Twiceme technology enables workers and bystanders to alert authorities, locate the injured and provide identification details that each wearer can upload via the Twiceme mobile application.
"The original RADIX helmet features cutting-edge design, but as part of our mission to continuously innovate, we saw room to add new technology to keep industrial workers on the front line as safe as possible,” said Rory Craig, senior industrial designer, LIFT Safety. “Twiceme’s safety technology will empower workers in emergency scenarios and also help them ingrain safety in their daily routines via self-guided daily equipment health checks."
Twiceme’s Equipment Health feature provides a way for workers to self-inspect equipment regularly. It allows safety managers to continuously monitor the workforce for compromised safety equipment and expiration dates of old equipment by empowering employees to regularly self-inspect their personal protective equipment (PPE), per the Occupational Safety and Health Administration’s (OSHA) recommendations on properly evaluating head protection.

"In pursuit of spreading Twiceme’s culture of safety, we are continuously looking for new PPE brands that share a similar sentiment,” said Christian Connolly, CEO of Twiceme.
“The partnership with LIFT Safety was a natural fit given the company’s joint focus on design and innovation. By adding our state-of-the-art safety technology into LIFT’s RADIX helmets, we enable general contractors and other industrial segments like mining and oil and gas to take a digital approach to establishing safety in their daily operations."
