Safe Life has acquired AEDMAX.PL, a Poland-based company specializing in automated external defibrillators (AEDs), first aid equipment, and first aid training.

AEDMAX.PL is Safe Life’s first acquisition in Poland. It grows the company’s footprint in Europe further, following on yesterday’s announcement the company had bought Switzerland-based AED provider resQshock.

AEDMAX.PL focuses on the availability of rescue equipment—including AEDs and first aid kits to stop bleeding—and training in CPR and first aid. To date, the company has delivered more than 25,000 AEDs and trained over 200,000 people.

The company will keep operating and further strengthening its brands, while benefiting from Safe Life’s international reach and scale.

“Welcoming AEDMAX.PL into Safe Life is an honor and a privilege, and marks an important step on our expansion journey,” said Jimmy Eriksson, CEO of Safe Life. “Their success to date builds on strengths in market position, team and product & service portfolio, and I see fantastic opportunities ahead when marrying those to the platform and depth of expertise we have across Safe Life. Poland is a very large and bustling market, and we are extremely pleased to have AEDMAX.PL join us on our quest to spread lifesaving readiness and equipment availability across Europe.”

Earlier this year, Safe Life also acquired D-Sécurité Groupe, a French supplier of AEDs and medical equipment.

“I am extremely enthusiastic about joining Safe Life,” said Grzegorz T. Dokurno, co-founder and Management Board member of AEDMAX.PL. “The Safe Life journey has been impressive, and I believe we will be able to contribute to its continuation by providing even better customer service and proven and reliable rescue equipment in Poland.”

Michal Pyka, co-founder and Management Board member, added, “Enabling people to know how to, and to be able to, handle an accident or a sudden cardiac arrest has been our mission throughout. Safe Life’s is the same. Working together, we will be able to accelerate our efforts in the Polish market.”
