Guardian Introduces ecoAnchor^®: A Portable, Non-Penetrating Roof Anchor
Designed for Simpler, Safer Work at Height

PASADENA, TX— August 5, 2026 — Height safety leader, Guardian, a leading provider of fall protection and height safety equipment, is proud to introduce the ecoAnchor^® mobile roof anchor, an innovative, water-filled deadweight anchor engineered to deliver reliable fall protection while simplifying transportation, installation, and rooftop mobility.

Designed for contractors, facility maintenance professionals, and roofing crews, the ecoAnchor^® eliminates the need to drill into roof surfaces while providing a secure, portable anchorage solution for low-slope applications. This lightweight anchor weighs just 18 pounds when empty, folds down for convenient transport and storage, and can be filled on-site in approximately 10 minutes, reducing the burden of moving heavy equipment to elevated work areas.

"At Guardian, we're focused on making height safety easier without compromising performance," said Mel Moss, Director of Marketing at Guardian. "The ecoAnchor gives contractors a practical, reusable solution that minimizes installation time, protects roof integrity, and helps crews stay productive on the job."

Unlike traditional roof anchors that require penetration of the substrate, the ecoAnchor^®’s non-penetrating design is compatible with a wide variety of low-slope roofing materials including concrete, EPDM, mineralized felt, tarmac, and felt-and-chippings surfaces.
