Our Story
The CBC Technical Safety Division was born of a life-long commitment to excellence--in training, skill development, action, and customer care--in our first responder family. Our desire became a reality because we were forged as a company through the shared trust and brotherhood/sisterhood our founders and team members share in the fire service.
Our teams are built from the best of the best--active fire/rescue personnel from some of the most active departments in the Southeastern United States.
We are actively working firefighters and rescue specialists who just weren't impressed with the status-quo in Technical Safety Standby, so we decided to go combine our talents and love of the job to show our partners what it truly means to be the best technical safety company, and one that meets ALL the needs of our clients.
