Blackline Safety has announced the opening of two new international offices in Cologne, Germany, and Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates. This strategic expansion enhances the company’s presence across Europe, the Middle East, and Africa (EMEA), reinforcing support for a fast-growing customer base in these regions.
The Cologne office extends Blackline’s European network, complementing its established bases in the U.K. and France. It will serve as a hub for regional sales, service, and customer engagement throughout Europe and Africa. Meanwhile, the Abu Dhabi office will strengthen the company’s operations in the energy, utilities, and petrochemical sectors, offering localised training and service support. The new location follows a multi-year purchase agreement with ADNOC, marking another step in Blackline’s sustained growth in the Middle East.
“We’re excited to bring Blackline’s global operations even closer to our customers across Europe and the Middle East,” said Cody Slater, CEO and Chair of Blackline Safety. “Opening regional offices in Cologne and Abu Dhabi strengthens our local service and support capabilities and positions us to better partner with global enterprise customers.”
The openings coincide with Blackline Safety’s 10th consecutive year exhibiting at ADIPEC 2025 (Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Centre, Hall 2 – Stand 2460, 3–6 November) and its participation at A+A 2025 in Düsseldorf, Germany (Hall 4 – Stand F06, 4–7 November). Both events are leading global showcases for safety and energy professionals.
At these exhibitions, Blackline will present the latest updates to its cloud-based safety platform, first introduced at the NSC 2025 Safety Congress & Expo. New features include ZoneAware Geofencing, an enhanced Loner Mobile app, improved gas sensor visibility, and bulk management automation tools. Together, these innovations deliver greater situational awareness, simpler programme management, stronger compliance, and expanded protection for workers across all operations.
