Duarry liferafts, our specialty
We design, manufacture and inspect them.

How are they reviewed?

The revision of a liferaft is a complicated job and must be carried out by a technician specialized in revisions. In Ausmar we work to provide service of revision, repair and replacement of safety equipment on board.

Although a raft properly packed in its container and stowed can remain operational for several years, inclement weather, temperature changes and even saltpeter can affect its proper functioning.

The verification of the rest of the material is also essential; it is necessary to check the condition and expiration dates of each and every one of the materials that make up the liferaft.

Pneumatic part and CO2 inlet and outlet elements
