VIKING Life-Saving Equipment has launched the VIKING YouSafe™ Twist, a compliance-led constant wear immersion suit whose advanced capabilities extend the reach of high-performance protection to the most cost conscious of maritime industry buyers, reports gCaptain.
VIKING YouSafe™ Twist
Alongside other suits in the portfolio that have established VIKING’s as the broadest range of high-spec crew work application immersion suits in the market, the ‘Twist’ joins the VIKING YouSafe™ Cyclone, Hurricane, Hurricane+ and Boras in a range of progressively higher spec, storm-themed suits. All of them are made from waterproof, highly durable and breathable materials and designed for constant wear across multiple tasks in difficult conditions.
Work suits provide critical protection for seafarers at risk of cold shock and hypothermia if they go into the water, with their use mandatory for specific crew duties under IMO rules. However, lack of comfort, breathability or fit can become a donning deterrent, especially when duties require switching between operations or only involve short-lived exposure to risk.
