New Argentinean Survival Suit a Boon for Merchant Sailors

Pilmic tells us the suit meets all the necessary requirements for safety approval including the International Maritime Organization’s SOLAS, and LSA standards. In addition the suit can help keep the wearer alive in extreme Arctic conditions and is tested down to -0.5C for seven hours. The company refers to the recent tragedy of the Costa Concordia and makes the point that, a century after the loss of the Titanic, lives at sea still remain at risk often for the lack of simple, yet effective life saving devices.
