This category is separated into sub-categories including Lifejackets & PFD. Use the drop down menu under Safety Equipment to select products.

Lifejackets & PFD

Lifejackets are designed to support an unconscious person and are usually automatically activated with a manual option. A PFD is a Personal Floatation Device.

Various compliance standards are used around the world including EC mark (Europe), USCG (US Coast Guard) approval and the international SOLAS (Safety Of Life At Sea).

Distress Flares & Signalling Equipment

Distress flares are carried by all vessels and depending on type can be used by day or night. Types include handheld flare, rocket flare, smoke signals and dye markers.

Other means of distress signalling are strobe lights, SARTs (Search & Rescue Transponders) and EPIRBs (Emergency Position Indicating Radio Beacons).

Man Overboard Alarms

Sonar, radio frequency & GPS (Global Positioning System)  technologies are being used to develop crew safety systems that sound an alarm during a man overboard emergency.

An effective approach to crew safety is to combine a man overboard alarm system with a PLB (Personal Locator Beacon) carried by individual crew members.
