The VIKING YouSafe™ Vanguard lifejacket will be fully supported by the company’s global servicing network. Every lifejacket is supplied with its own digital identifier, enabling VIKING to offer full track and trace capability and to maintain up to date records for servicing and replacement. “This lifejacket is the latest addition to our offshore safety portfolio, as we continue to innovate for the challenges facing established oil & gas clients and our expanding group of wind energy customers alike,” says Jens Peter Kruse, Vice President Global Fire & PPE Products, VIKING Life-Saving Equipment. “It is also the latest example of a VIKING next generation safety product which is multipurpose as well as fit for purpose.” New products from VIKING in 2021 include an all-on-one offshore wind turbine evacuation kit with the VIKING YouSafe™ Hightide suit with integral harnesses, gloves and lowering device, a range of innovative VIKING YouSafe™ helicopter aviation suits and the VIKING YouSafe™ Walk-to-Work one- size immersion suit for offshore customers stored in a pouch at the back of the lifejacket to enable ‘hands-free protection’ for maintenance crews transferring from work boats to a fixed installation offshore.
