Contact Ty-FlotA Heritage of Innovation & Partnership
Ty-Flot, founded in 1995 by the Moreau family, began as a pioneering force in the emerging nuclear market. Known for its strong partnerships within the industry, the company developed a reputation for innovation, holding patents for over 100 unique Foreign Material Exclusion (FME) solutions.
Over time, this spirit of innovation expanded into new opportunities to enhance jobsite safety, including Dropped Object Prevention solutions designed to help keep tools and other materials secure when working at height.
In 2018, Ty-Flot was acquired by Pure Safety Group and is now a part of Guardian family of brands. Today, Ty-Flot upholds its legacy of exceptional quality and service while broadening its impact across multiple industries.
The name Ty-Flot came from our very first patented product, the floating zip tie!
Our comprehensive range of FME products includes everything required to prevent debris contamination, from barriers, covers, caps, plugs, and tarps to customized solutions designed to protect even the most intricate systems.
By Failing to Prepare,
You are Preparing to Fail
If you’re going to be playing a competitive sport, you’ve got to practice if you want to do well. FME is similar because the work that you do will always be different but the preparation is mostly the same.
True preparation is in the details. An FME Ready Worker secures every item - including their tools, clothing, and gear - eliminating loose hazards with tethers, hook and loop fasteners, or tape. With clean shoe soles, empty pockets, and securely fastened papers, they reduce risks, protect the worksite, and uphold the highest operational standards.
Dropped Objects Cost.
Ty-Flot's Dropped Object
Prevention Solutions Save.
Dropped objects from height can lead to significant costs, including lost time from personnel injury, damaged tools or equipment and the creation of restricted zones that must remain clear. Ty-Flot helps minimize these risks with a full range of tool attachment and tethering solutions, including the patented Quick-Switch® Tool Tether
System, which provides 100% tie-off for the most secure tool transfer possible.
Quick-Switch® is an industry-first, hands-free tool tether system that streamlines secure tool transfer when working at height - without ever disconnecting the tool from its anchor. Users remain in full control with 100% tie-off, while the mechanical lock adapts to multiple tools, allowing seamless switching from belts to wrists and between hands. Innovative, interchangeable, and secure, Quick-Switch® keeps every tool safely tethered, protecting workers and equipment while helping teams stay productive at height.
What is the difference between
FOD control and FME?
The aviation industry refers to its debris control efforts as FOD Control or FOD Prevention, while the nuclear industry refers to the control as Foreign Material Exclusion. There are a few subtle differences in FOD Control and FME but the major concepts are the same.
Foreign Material
Exclusion Saves Costs
In FME you are paying to prevent future expenses but you are also getting great value as you pay. The reality is that most of the parts which are specially manufactured for foreign material exclusion are comparably priced to those items that are not fit for use in FME. A lot of the items that are tailored for FME are also very long lasting, so the upfront cost is small and the return on the investment lasts a long time.
