About ZoneSafe
Over 20 years of innovation in every system. Creating a safer workplace with ZoneSafe, part of Avonwood Developments.
Building on a legacy of technical innovation, UK manufacturer Avonwood Developments Ltd has developed ZoneSafe, a range of proximity warning systems designed to help prevent collisions between vehicles, pedestrians, and infrastructure on busy worksites. Using advanced RFID technology, the system creates dynamic 360° detection zones that trigger real-time audible, visual, and vibration alerts when hazards are detected.
For over 20 years, ZoneSafe has helped organisations reduce collision risk, improve situational awareness and create safer workplaces across a wide range of industries.
Our mission: Creating a safer workplace
At ZoneSafe, we believe that everyone has the right to work without fear of accidents. We understand the challenges of managing busy industrial sites where vehicles, people and machinery operate in close proximity.
True safety isn’t just about avoiding incidents – it’s about creating a culture where awareness and prevention are built into everyday operations. That’s why we develop advanced proximity warning systems designed to help organisations reduce risk, protect their people and operate with confidence.
About ZoneSafe – Our story
Our journey began over 20 years ago, in 2003, when we started developing safety systems to prevent the tampering of refuse lorries as part of Avonwood Developments.
During this work, we realised the technology had far greater potential – helping prevent serious accidents in busy industrial environments.
This led us to develop advanced RFID-based proximity warning systems designed to prevent collisions between vehicles and pedestrians. From this innovation, the ZoneSafe brand was created.
