MSA has focused on safety for more than a century
The abbreviation “MSA” stands for “Mine Safety Appliances”. It can immediately be deduced that the company has its origins in protective equipment for mining. After a major mining disaster in 1912, John T. Ryan Sr., a mining engineer, came up with the idea of creating an electric mining lamp so that the risk of an explosion could be minimized. To achieve this, he joined forces with Thomas Edison, among others. Two years later, the first electric mining lamp was a fact. This not only marked the beginning of MSA as a company, but also a reduction in the number of mine explosions by as much as 75 percent. Shortly thereafter, MSA committed to more ways to protect miners, and the company from Cranberry, a suburb of Pittsburgh, quickly became a household name around the world.
More than a hundred years after MSA was founded, the American company's personal protective equipment is available in no fewer than 140 countries around the world. These are no longer just electric lamps. In fact, over the years the company has increasingly focused on protecting your head and face. MSA safety helmets are very popular, but that is not the only thing. MSA makes various ear muffs and safety glasses that can be attached to their helmets, but also models that can be worn separately. There are also various MSA hats for under the helmet on the market. These can protect you in several ways.
