Diverse
Specialties is the culmination of more than a quarter
of century of firefighting, professional rescue, farming,
construction and demolition experience. Bringing together
expertise in the public and private sectors, DSI delivers
highly innovative and effective products for use in
disaster-related situations and everyday contracting.
We
solve problems! From increasing production standards in
a canning facility, to disassembling a water tower
(which according to most could not be done), we find
solutions. Increasing productivity and safety, utilizing
man-power more effectively, and all for a reasonable
cost is what Diverse Specialties, Inc is all about.
Bringing diverse solutions we create or find to the
marketplace is what we do.
President,
Robert Payne
At eight years
old he created his own wetsuit and several years later
his version of the snowmobile. The jumpsuit fire gear
most firemen wear now was created out of personal needs
for safety he experienced. And the list goes
on…Pullin-Out Post Pulling Plates were developed last
year when clearing property for development included
removing aged chain link fencing. Our newest product the
Boom-Grapple was initially conceived on 2001, with the
need reestablished during Florida’s 2004 hurricane
season and the enormous amount of accumulated debris. As
a practical mechanical engineer, Mr. Payne believes in
continuing education and continues to pursue learning,
keeping abreast of new methods and tools in a variety of
industries, recently completing courses for
certification in prescribed burning. Bob not only
designs and builds products for DSI to distribute, but
operates as a consultant in design in engineering and
design modification.
Marketing,
Sara Hand
Mrs. Hand
brings to the table many years of marketing in service
and entertainment-related industries. Marketing is not
just about selling products, but about meeting needs.
Creating products is not just about good ideas, but the
right good ideas. We don’t ask, “Can we do it?” but “How
can we do it?” Diverse Specialties’ plan for growth is a
strong one, as we move from local government sales to a
national level and private individual sales to major
retail chains. Our desire to utilize technology to
access new and broader markets is one of determination.
