About us
Polar Enviro is the umbrella brand for Smarterlite, Safety Path, OmniGrip Direct and Vivacity. Polar Enviro helps businesses, governments and communities immediately reduce their carbon emissions, e-waste and costs and improve safety, helping them save money while reducing their contribution to global climate-change and making the world a safer place. We make roads, paths and buildings safer by using smart technologies, reducing waste, reusing materials and creating renewable light. We reduce road trauma, improve workplace safety and make communities safer. We divert glass from being sent to landfill, and reuse it to reduce emissions and improve safety. Our technology adds value to stockpiled glass. Our technology reduces the volume of concrete and asphalt being sent to landfill or a licensed waste disposal, by resurfacing with recycled glass or natural aggregates. Our new concrete mix reduces emissions from the production of concrete and incorporates recycled content. Every business and government can make a difference using Polar Enviro's technologies as part of their routine business. Reduce costs, reduce consumption, reduce carbon, divert waste from landfill, use recyclable materials and reduce eWaste with Polar Enviro.

In high-traffic environments like warehouses, distribution centres, construction sites, and transport hubs, clear wayfinding and safety lighting are critical. Vivacity Smart Lighting's Stud Lights (also known as cats' eyes) provide an energy-efficient, durable, low maintenance solution that improves visibility without the cost, complexity or environmental impact of traditional overhead lighting. These in-ground markers are ideal for public spaces, pathways, car parks, and roads, offering superior safety and visibility, especially in low-light conditions. Key Features: ✅ Automatic Ambient Sensors: Lights automatically turn on at dusk and off at dawn, saving energy while ensuring safety. ✅ Pedestrian & Vehicle Pathway Separation: Clearly defines pathways, improving safety, particularly in areas with reversing vehicles. ✅ Easy Self-Installation: The self-installation design means no need for specialised equipment or contractors—saving both time and labour costs. ✅ Built for Durability: IP68 waterproofing and 30-tonne tensile strength make these lights withstand the toughest conditions. ✅ 5-Year Battery Life: Enjoy simple and cost-effective maintenance with replaceable batteries that last up to 5 years.
