Dylan Owen, our Gas Detection Manager, recently represented Entec at the AFAC Conference in Perth, Western Australia. It was a great opportunity to connect with the emergency management community across the region.
AFAC is recognised as the premier emergency management conference in our part of the world. It brings together industry leaders, technical experts, and frontline professionals from Australia, New Zealand, and beyond. For companies like ours, it’s an excellent chance to meet organisations that share our commitment to safety, innovation, and resilience in high-risk environments.
Our Focus at the Conference
Dylan attended alongside our premier portable supplier, Industrial Scientific. This partnership reflects our ongoing commitment to staying at the forefront of the industry and ensuring our customers have access to reliable, effective, and future-ready gas detection solutions.
The conversations throughout the conference reinforced why we do what we do – providing trusted gas detection expertise that helps keep people safe in challenging situations.
Building Connections Across the Tasman
One of the key benefits of events like AFAC is the opportunity to connect with a wide range of organisations. Whether it’s emergency services, industrial safety teams, or other technology providers, these connections help us better understand the challenges our customers face and how we can support them.
The collaborative atmosphere at AFAC made it easy to share knowledge and learn from others in the field. These aren’t just business relationships – they’re partnerships built on a shared commitment to safety.
Looking Ahead
Dylan came away from AFAC 2025 with valuable insights and new connections that will help us continue supporting our clients across Australasia. The conversations started in Perth are already informing how we approach our work here in New Zealand.
We’re grateful to the organisers, exhibitors, and attendees who made the event such a valuable experience. These connections will help strengthen our ability to provide trusted gas detection expertise to clients throughout the region.
Events like AFAC remind us why our work matters – because at the end of the day, it’s all about making sure people stay safe.
