ZIPPSAFE'S STORY

Improving the world of employee locker rooms with smart tech

Zippsafe’s smart soft storage locker technology replaces yesteryear’s rigid metal locker design with flexible, textile lockerbags that offer incredible space savings for companies in a variety of industries, including healthcare, manufacturing and retail. Zippsafe customers achieve up to three times more locker capacity, save up to 70% of floor space (thousands of square feet) and free up additional space by centralizing locker rooms.

A built-in ventilation system with an active carbon filter prevents odors and can even dry damp clothing being stored. This minimizes humidity and reduces the risk of contamination and the transmission of pathogens.

Zippsafe also makes locker management easy for companies with its Zippsafe Locker Management System that provides easy authorization and live monitoring. Cleaning is also simple for maintenance staff, as all Zippsafe products are able to be laundered or wiped down with wet cloths.

Unorthodox ventures’ impact

With decades of experience in expanding to new markets, we helped Zippsafe open its first American office and hire its first U.S. employee. Even before investing, we provided space at trade shows, passed along sales leads and made key introductions.
