Guardian introduced a new line of Defender safety harnesses at World of Concrete 2026, expanding its fall protection offerings for construction and industrial work at height. The Defender lineup was developed with input from construction professionals to address comfort, fit and performance demands on active jobsites.
The Defender range includes three harness options designed for different work environments. The Defender model is intended for general jobsite use, while the Defender Ultra adds increased adjustability and support for longer workdays. The Defender Ultra+ is designed for more complex tasks requiring greater mobility and comfort.
Guardian said the harnesses were developed to reflect real-world jobsite conditions and are intended to balance durability with ease of use. The Defender harnesses are available for preorder, with shipments expected to begin in March 2026.
