We had a great turnout last week in Las Vegas with our lunch & learn at our newest distribution center: AES. A big shout out to the folks who were able to make it, like the Nevada state inspectors, elevator contractors, and of course, elevator consultants. A special thanks to the folks at AES for providing such a great facility in Las Vegas! Look out for another invite to AES's San Francisco facility next month. Now that elevator contractors are installing our product and requesting proposals, HydraSafe Brake has been told that we have been saving elevator contractors an average of $25K to $50K per elevator on previously quoted projects. Yes, per elevator! This has really helped their bottom line as we approach the end of the year. If any of you have projects already quoted or new projects and need help from HydraSafe Brake, please feel free to reach out as we have the product in stock. We will be in Ohio this week presenting to Toledo Elevator , as well as speaking to code on our product line for the state of Ohio and NAESA . We are looking forward to meeting some new inspectors and developing new long-term relationships. We haven't found an elevator we couldn't stop yet! As always, thank you for your support and have a safe day.

Had a fantastic week in NYC. HydraSafe Brake spoke at the ECNY event, which had a great turnout. Met new people, caught up with old friends, and grateful for the support and kindness from Greg DeCola and the board members . Big thanks to Don Gelestino and the team at Champion Elevator for hosting HydraSafe Brake at their office to showcase our product line. Impressed by the professionalism of the group! Visited various locations to assess our HydraSafe Brake product, and one elevator, in particular, reminded me of the Sears Tower days with its Westinghouse 3620 machine. A 10,000 lb. car at 1000 FPM, a perfect fit for the HydraSafe Brake, in one of the last buildings in the US with this machine. Kudos to Gary B , the resident maintenance tech onsite. Looking ahead to next week, mark your calendars for October 22nd when HydraSafe Brake will be in Las Vegas working with our partners AES (Access Elevator & Escalator Supply) to set up distribution. Join us for a live demo of our product line, food, drinks, discussions on sales, installation, and inspection procedures. Visit us at noon next Tuesday to explore AES's new products and meet the team. See you there! Wishing you a great weekend and stay safe.
