Ruddington-headquartered software company, Ideagen has acquired SafetyStratus, a Texas-based provider of enterprise environmental, health and safety (EHS) software.
SafetyStratus offers a wide-ranging EHS platform with a distinct focus on sophisticated chemical management. Its specialised modules include chemical management, chemical inventory, radiation, hazardous waste and biosafety. The company serves a diverse customer base of university labs, commercial laboratories and large enterprises that rely on precise chemical handling and compliance.
This acquisition adds advanced chemical management capabilities to Ideagen’s EHS and quality management (EHSQ) solutions and will allow the company to offer Ideagen Chemical Management as a specialised platform within and alongside its existing EHSQ portfolio.
Ben Dorks, CEO of Ideagen, said: “Our customers in life sciences, healthcare, energy and manufacturing need sophisticated chemical management solutions that understand the complexity of their operations. SafetyStratus brings exactly that – deep expertise in chemical inventory, radiation safety and hazardous waste management that goes far beyond traditional EHS platforms.
“This acquisition means we can now provide our existing customers with integrated chemical management capabilities, while offering new clients the specialized compliance solutions they’ve been seeking within a comprehensive EHS platform.”
Aditya Avadhanula, CEO and co-founder of SafetyStratus, said: “Joining Ideagen represents an incredible opportunity to amplify what we’ve built over the past 15 years. Our customers have always been at the heart of everything we do – from the university research labs conducting cutting-edge science to the manufacturing facilities managing complex chemical processes. Now we can serve them at an entirely new scale.
“For our team, this means we can focus on what we do best – solving the complex challenges that come with sophisticated chemical management – while leveraging Ideagen’s global reach and resources to serve even more organizations that need these capabilities.
“This acquisition validates that there’s real demand for chemical management solutions that understand the nuances of regulated industries. Together with Ideagen, we’re positioned to set new standards for how organizations handle chemical compliance, safety and operational excellence.”
The addition of SafetyStratus takes Ideagen’s acquisitions to nine in 2025 including aviation noise monitoring business, Casper (September), environmental monitoring solution Envirosuite, wearable tech company Reactec and lone worker safety solution WorkSafe Guardian in August, food and beverage solutions SafeFood 360 and Authenticate in July, policy management solution ConvergePoint in June and contractor management company Beakon in February.
