Ansell Launches Innovative AXIS Centers for Future Safety Solutions

On October 22, 2025, Ansell Limited, a leader in safety solutions globally, announced the opening of its first Ansell Xperience & Innovation Studio, known as AXIS, in Alpharetta, Georgia. This initiative comes at a time when safety requirements are rapidly changing due to emerging risks, advancements in technology, and evolving standards across industries. AXIS has been conceived as Ansell's proactive strategy to help businesses stay ahead of these changes and ensure a safer work environment.

AXIS is more than just a physical location; it functions as an immersive and collaborative space where the challenges of tomorrow’s safety landscape can be addressed. The studio aims to facilitate education, experimentation, and co-creation among its partners and the community. Key features of this innovative center include:

1. Expert-Led Education

Visitors to AXIS will benefit from sessions led by safety and technical specialists who will provide insights into best practices as well as the latest tools available. This educational component is designed to assist individuals and organizations in understanding and adapting to evolving safety standards, ultimately helping to mitigate risks present in today’s workplaces.

2. Live Demonstrations and Tests

Within the AXIS studios, participants have the opportunity to engage with cutting-edge innovations through hands-on experiences. Onsite labs are equipped to simulate real-world scenarios, allowing guests to see firsthand how various safety products perform under different hazardous conditions. This practical approach builds confidence in the effectiveness of safety solutions.

3. Collaborative Development

A cornerstone of AXIS’s mission is to foster collaboration. By working closely with partners and stakeholders, Ansell aims to identify existing safety challenges and develop tailored solutions that are not only effective but also scalable. This co-creation process emphasizes practical application and significant impact within the safety landscape.

Neil Salmon, Ansell's Chief Executive Officer, emphasized the significance of AXIS in the company’s mission during the launch. He stated, "The launch of AXIS marks an important step in advancing our mission to lead the world to a safer future. By creating spaces where our partners can collaborate with us, we're not only addressing immediate safety challenges but also driving the insights and innovations that will define protection for years to come."

With a rich heritage of over 130 years in personal protection, Ansell continues to solidify its status as a trusted partner for businesses grappling with complex safety issues. Following the Alpharetta launch, Ansell has plans to open its next AXIS center in Coimbra, Portugal, in the upcoming year, thereby enhancing its global presence and enabling more professionals to engage in safety innovation and training.

The AXIS center is open to invited guests and partners. For those interested in visiting the Alpharetta location, inquiries can be made through their Ansell representatives or distribution channels.
