Robotics and Automation Safety

Every robotic system and every organisation is different. Antea Group provides specialist expertise to bridge the gap between advanced automation technology and practical, compliant robotics safety solutions.

Specialist Technical & Regulatory Expertise

Our team combines deep knowledge of robotics, human-machine interaction, and ISO robot safety standards. We support diverse environments, ranging from initial research and prototype development to fully operational, high-scale industrial robot cells.

Safety as an Enabler, not a Barrier

We view robotics safety not as a compliance hurdle, but as a primary driver of operational  performance. By integrating the RIA framework and ISO standards, we help clients mitigate risk and protect their valuable assets. This 'safety-first' architecture serves to accelerate the deployment of automation, ensuring that systems move from installation to full-scale  production rapidly, reliably, and without the friction of regulatory delays.

Fit-for-Purpose Robotics Safety Solutions

We take time to understand your operations, risk profile, technology maturity, and organisational culture. Our robot safety solutions are tailored to your specific operations, technology, and risk profile.

Reactive & Proactive Risk Management

We resolve immediate safety concerns while building forward-thinking frameworks to prevent 
future risks.

Robust Program Development & Implementation

Our experts develop and implement integrated safety programs aligned with recognised ISO standards and industry best practices.

Knowledge Sharing & Capability Building

We empower your workforce through targeted training and practical guidance, ensuring your team can apply safety controls with confidence.

Data-Driven Insights

Our evidence-based reporting serves as both a formal compliance record and a practical roadmap for continuous improvement.

High-Quality Client Experience

We strategically manage our capacity to ensure responsive communication, consistent delivery and build trusted long-term partnerships.
