SeaArctic
SeaArctic is a further development of our SeaNordic suit with some important additional features. The suit has a certified, integral self-righting device that turns the wearer around to the correct face-up flotation position, even if the wearer is unconscious. The self-righting bladder is equipped with a hydrostatic mechanism for safe inflation and turning when immersed in water.
In addition, a bladder in the hood may be inflated manually for increased water tightness around the face, improved floating position and freeboard. The suit has a 6-hour certification and can be used without a lifejacket. This suit provides a good life insurance on board fishing vessels, merchant ships and mobile offshore installations.

From one of the world's foremost developers and manufacturers of survival equipment
Hansen Protection has been a pioneer in safety at sea since we launched kapok lifejackets in 1932.
Our current range continues the company's strong traditions, where our greatest concern is to ensure optimal functionality and performance for all types of work at sea.
A first class survival suit can mean the difference between life and death.
As one of the world's foremost developers and manufacturers of survival equipment, Hansen Protection can offer a wide collection of survival suits. Survival can never be guaranteed, but we can guarantee that our survival suits satisfy the highest demands for safety.
Survival suits are obligatory for personnel on oil rigs, passenger ferries, merchant and fishing fleets plus in offshore helicopter transport.
Our dry suits provide sufficient buoyancy and protect against heat loss, and thus increase the survival time in cold water. All suits are tested and approved according to the strictest national and international standards.
