Our History

KAC was founded in 1972 and now manufactures on average over 2 million call points per year.

As pioneers of emergency evacuation safety, we innovated the modern “break glass” device concept, revolutionising the industry and creating the platform now used by all manufacturers. Since then, we have consistently set the bar for call point and AV safety product innovation.

Our ethos is to not only meet market needs but set the industry standard for call point and AV product innovation, and this is a commitment we have honoured for over 40 years.

We started as a one-man operation and have grown into an international business, employing 170 people at our state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in Redditch.
