Regular servicing of marine safety equipment is crucial to ensure its reliability and compliance with safety regulations. The International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS) mandates that inflatable liferafts, lifejackets, and rescue boats be serviced at intervals not exceeding 12 months.
Adhering to these guidelines helps maintain the equipment’s functionality and ensures readiness in case of emergencies.
Any request for an extension on the service due date must be dealt with by your relevant Flag Authority. In the UK, it’s the Maritime and Coastguard Agency (MCA). It’s crucial to maintain regular servicing to ensure the equipment functions properly in emergencies.
The service includes inflating and pressure testing the liferaft, inspecting the container and contents, replacing expired items, and repacking the liferaft.
Our lifejacket servicing typically includes inspection of all components, testing of the inflation mechanism, and replacement of any expired parts.
Call us for more information about servicing.
If your lifejacket is not listed, please call us so we can advise.
