VIKING and grünBAG work for an eco-friendly future Once a functional liferaft, the one-of-a-kind VIKING LifeBags have been around the world - while protecting human lives But it doesn’t stop there. Creative recycling of the materials gives new life to old liferafts, making them ready to travel the world once again - this time protecting people’s belongings and doing the environment a favour in the process! Recycling - the VIKING way Thanks to cutting-edge materials refined through clever engineering, VIKING liferafts are able to fulfil their crucial lifesaving role for several years. But what happens when eventually they reach the end of their useful lives? ”Through proactive recycling, we make sure that our liferafts can be reused f. or a meaningful purpose, whenever possible. Made almost entirely out of liferaft canvas and strap material, the VIKING LifeBag is a good example of this sustainable approach.” Lasse Sall VP R&D & Engineering Safe travels. Every LifeBag is truly unique and retains the original rugged quality and attention to detail that characterize VIKING products. The bag is the result of the creative cooperation between recycling specialist grünBAG Denmark and dedicated VIKING employees from around the world. By joining forces, they have managed to combine the best of liferaft engineering, material recycling and industrial design to create a useful product made to last. DESIGNED TO SURVIVE VIKING liferafts are built to protect and save lives in emergencies at sea and are often the last means of rescue in a critical situation. That means they must be able to perform flawlessly while withstanding the dramatic forces of nature. Born water resistant, the liferaft materials have been tested under extreme conditions including temperatures ranging from +65 degrees Celsius for operation in the tropics to -50 degrees Celsius for polar conditions. Tested for strength, liferaft materials are subjected to the thrust of jet engines to simulate wind conditions at Beaufort 11. You can buy VIKING LifeBags here: www.grunbag.eco
