SafetyCare, Hackensack, N.J., is now an Underwriters Laboratories listed central station. Underwriters Laboratories (UL) is a non-profit public-safety testing agency that serves as the benchmark for insurance companies and inspects and lists alarm monitoring facilities in North America.

As a UUFX UL-listed central station, SafetyCare is authorized to monitor UL residential and commercial burglar and fire alarm systems. SafetyCare received listings for both central station operation and site automation systems.

With the UL certification, SafetyCare can undertake UL-listed jobs in such high-risk places as jewelry stores, government buildings, military installations and banks. Peter P. Giacalone, executive vice president, SafetyCare, noted the UL designation will be of great benefit to SafetyCare’s dealers, as this listing allows them to offer monitoring service for virtually any residential and commercial customer.
