Ensuring your safety on board: the core of our mission
While liferafts, harnesses and crew overload gear are the products that
come to mind when you say "safety," at Plastimo safety is a
much broader concept. We put as much care into the design and
manufacture of thru-hull fittings, ladders, reefing gear, fenders and
compasses as we do traditional safety equipment, because they all
contribute to your safety onboard. Safety is a state of mind at Plastimo,
and reflects our continuing commitment to quality; another reason
Plastimo is unique!
Safety
starts with quality
Overall quality is part of the Plastimo culture: at every stage, our
technicians monitor the manufacturing process following strict
guidelines. The total quality concept encompasses every department and
has enabled Plastimo to obtain ISO 9001 certification for the
manufacture of liferafts. Our quality process allows us to guarantee
optimum reliability and safety, which is reflected in our warranty
coverage: a 12-year warranty on every liferaft and a five-year warranty
on every compass.
Research
and development: on the crest of innovation for 40 years
Innovation is only worthwhile if it lasts. To build longevity into our
products, our R&D team takes into consideration the expectations of
our customers. Together with our marketing team, our engineers and
technicians participate in product development with boaters, designers
and industry professionals, so we can provide the best possible products
to meet our customers' needs. Our commitment to innovation ensures that
our products are functional and aesthetically pleasing, and that safety
is an integral component.
Many Plastimo products that were considered innovative when introduced
are now industry standards. We pride ourselves on the success and
durability of our products, and on the high level of trust we've earned
from our customers as a result
Ever
since the early days, Plastimo has been developing, for and with racers,
the products which help them improve their overall performance, both in
terms of precision and speed. From the legendary compasses specially
adjusted for racing conditions, to specific "glide-and-speed"
antifouling, with a special mention for the latest-born : the inflatable
life-jacket Optisafe with integrated harness, distress beacon and
flashlight, developed in cooperation with 5 top racers, for the Jacques
Vabre Transatlantic race.
Combining
the racers' experience with Plastimo's engineering know-how, these
products are also made available to all yachtsmen ; because even if you
do not sail for a medal or to beat a record, you will always deserve the
best!
