Survival Platform from Salvare Could Save Lives

The newly designed SEAPODTM inflatable survival platform combines the latest technology with proven research to solve the age old problems of surviving critical hours before rescue comes; problems of quick deployment, hypothermia, visibility of survivors and staying safely out of the water.

UK Company, Salvare Worldwide, has developed the ingenious SEAPODTM as a solution. A lightweight, easily deployed, fully interlocking inflatable life saving platform based on the *Carley Liferaft concept. Unlike the Carley Liferaft, the SEAPODTM is light, (it weighs less than 4 kg and is packed in a water activated case) and offers good protection from the onset of Hypothermia, increasing the chances of survival. Because of its compactness the SEAPODTM can be stowed on large ships, coastal vessels, small boats, helicopters and aircraft alike.

While there are Liferafts with Freeboards, these often failed to launch or are difficult to board, leaving survivors still in the water at greater danger of hypothermia, with nothing but a Lifejacket to rely on. The SEAPODTM offers a much higher chance of survival and is such a big step forward in safety of life at sea.
