SAFETY Act - Certified and Designated

The lawsuit protections that SAFETY Act coverage affords will result in significantly lower liability exposure for Ameristar and its customers should a future act of terrorism occur. This is a tremendous benefit to Ameristar, the contractors that install our products, the security integrators, architects and engineers that specify our products, and the end use customers that use our qualified physical security products on their facilities since they will also benefit from the liability protection afforded by the SAFETY Act. The entire supply chain (manufacturer, specifiers, installers, vendors, and customers) will benefit from the coverage Ameristar receives from SAFETY Act Certification.

The SAFETY Act essentially eliminates liability that could arise out of a terrorist attack for sellers whose anti-terror products have been reviewed and approved by the DHS in America’s fight against terrorism. Most important, these lawsuit protections extend to Ameristar’s customers should a future act of terrorism occur and lawsuits follow alleging that Ameristar’s physical security products failed to prevent the terrorism.

Should this happen, our customers’ liability would be strictly limited, if not nonexistent, in most cases because they purchased Ameristar’s SAFETY Act approved services. This may also create an opportunity for Ameristar’s customers to recognize lower insurance premiums given the elimination of risk of lawsuits should an act of terrorism occur. Companies that purchase products from other manufactures that have not been SAFETY Act approved would not enjoy such protections.
