Life Saving Equipment Repair Co., Inc. was founded by Charles Roe in 1961. The company started as a life float repair center and eventually flourished into the manufacturing of The Roe Float. The company expanded into other facets of the oil & gas industry, later producing custom tarps and equipment covers, safety signs and stencils. LSE is also the manufacturer of The Tuff Bag. These bags are now sold worldwide and are used for a variety of applications.
The company also caters to the diving industry with its production of custom dive gear. We make diver’s hat liners, hat bags, diver pants and chaps, and custom bibs and jackets.
We also now stock a complete line of safety equipment and marine products including life jackets, signaling devices & equipment, Norwegian buoys, and safety PPE. We also carry supplies for the trucking industry.
Life Saving Equipment & Repair celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2011 under Charlene Gaddis, the daughter of Charles Roe.
