Tampa is the third largest city in Florida, after Miami and Jacksonville, with Tampa Bay being the largest port in the state. Such a location requires industry leading, reliable, water safety equipment, and that's exactly where we specialize.

Why did the City of Tampa choose Guardian™ Life Ring Cabinets?

As well as being a populous city, where many people reside, Tampa is also home to a number of vibrant and engaging tourist attractions - from arts and entertainment, to museums, cuisine and regular, city-wide events.

A notable event is the annual Gasparilla Pirate Festival - a pirate-themed mock invasion, which attracts hundreds of thousands of visitors to the city each year.

Guardian™ life ring cabinets immediately proved to be a natural fit. Easily-accessible, strikingly-visible and impressively-durable, our vital equipment offers a practical solution when ensuring water safety remains high on the agenda.
