When it matters most, your life-saving and fire-fighting equipment must simply work. We inspect, service and certify LSA & FFA to SOLAS and flag requirements.

Overview

Certified readiness for the worst day at sea

LSA and FFA servicing is about the day you hope never comes. Our technicians inspect, test, refill and certify the equipment your crew's lives depend on, with documentation that satisfies class, flag and port state control.
