"Our vision is to build the next generation of safety and survivability technologies and we believe this new brand represents that vision,” Mirabile said. “We are very excited to share our new technologies with our customers."
Formerly known as USSC Group, the company decided to change its name as part of an effort to more closely align with its goal of building the next generation of safety and survivability technologies.
The brand launch includes a new company logo, website, and social media presence.

United Safety partnered with The Brownstein Group, a Philadelphia-based branding agency, to complete the transition efforts.
