Mattress Company Uses Evolv’s Screening
Solution to Create a Safer Workplace for Employees
Evolv Technology (NASDAQ: EVLV), the leader in AI- based weapons
detection security screening, today announced its partnership with
Purple Innovation, a mattress company with factories in Georgia and
Utah.
Purple is using Evolv’s state-of-the-art Evolv Express®
screening solution at its factory in Georgia, with plans to bring
the technology to its facilities in Utah soon. Evolv Express uses
powerful sensor technology with artificial intelligence (AI) to
provide safer, more accurate threat detection at unprecedented
volume and speed. For Purple, that means employees can be safer at
work without a time-consuming entry process during a shift change
that can involve a few hundred people coming in at the same
time.
“This is Purple going above and beyond to keep employees safe,”
said Heather Beasley, Purple’s security manager. “If just the
presence of Evolv prevents people from bringing in weapons, that’s
what we want. People should be able to focus on their job while
they’re here, and Evolv allows them to have a sense of security
while they’re working.”
Representatives from Purple experienced how easy Evolv could be
when they attended an event at an Ohio stadium. When they saw how
people could walk straight through without always stopping for
individual checks, they knew Evolv was perfect for their
facilities. In a manufacturing workplace, many items are needed for
production that might be considered weapons in other work
environments. Evolv’s AI learns which items are appropriate for
Purple’s workplace that might set off an alarm somewhere else.
“Evolv is proud to partner with an organization like Purple that
puts employee safety first,” said Peter George, CEO of Evolv
Technology. “At Evolv, we aim to create a safer world for people to
live, work, learn, and play, and we can help only do that if we
have organizations like Purple using Evolv in their
environments.”
In addition to open floor plan warehouses like Purple’s and
sports facilities, Evolv is used everywhere from office buildings
to schools and hospitals, as well as other ticketed facilities like
performing arts centers.
