UNIVERSAL SAFETY PRODUCTS, INC.
Business
Universal Safety Products, Inc. imports, designs and markets safety and electrical products, and following a May 2025 asset sale, continues to focus on product lines other than its smoke and carbon monoxide alarms. Its main offerings include door chimes, ventilation products, ground fault circuit interrupters (GFCIs) and other electrical devices, while its former smoke and carbon monoxide alarm lines were divested to Feit Electric Company. The Company operates through a direct-selling corporate organization and its Universal Electric subsidiary, which targets the electrical distribution trade, supported by independent sales organizations and regional warehouses. It distributes primarily through U.S. retailers (chain, discount, home center and catalog), electrical and lighting distributors, manufactured housing companies, its website and trade shows, with limited export sales.
