A Calgary safety technology company is helping secure the 2026 Winter Olympics in Italy. Blackline Safety has deployed connected gas and radiation detection systems with the Belluno Provincial Fire Brigade in the Milan-Cortina region. The specialized hazardous-materials unit is using wearable detectors and area monitors to identify nuclear, biological, chemical, and radiological threats during venue sweeps and live events.
The equipment delivers real-time alerts, enabling rapid response and coordinated evacuation if hazards are detected. CEO Cody Slater said the Olympics represent one of the world’s most challenging safety environments. The deployment shows industrial safety technology expanding into large public-event security.
