itself on being the original inventor of the laptop storage and
recharging trolley. “Since then, some have tried to copy the concept
but no one has been as successful in providing the ultra-safe power
management solution that fits into LapSafe ® ’s product range,
ensuring that the unit can recharge up to 40 laptops, 60 tablets in

what we have achieved and determined to protect our brand.” “We have solutions that can help manage the deployment of IT
to new starters, quickly manage break/fix or replenishment of
