Lifejacket servicing could save your life

Lifejackets are essential safety equipment for anyone venturing onto the water. However, simply owning one isn't enough; regular servicing is crucial to ensure it functions correctly when needed most.

Regular self-inspection & annual professional servicing

The Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI) emphasizes that a well-maintained lifejacket can significantly increase survival chances in cold water emergencies. They recommend regular self-inspections and annual professional servicing to ensure reliability. Leading lifejacket manufacturers such as Crewsaver, advise a comprehensive inspection every three months, including leak tests and checking for fabric damage. They also recommend annual servicing by approved professionals to maintain the integrity of the lifejacket.
