Design in marine safety isn’t about aesthetics—it’s about saving lives. At Solas Safety & Supply, we focus on organizing and installing life-saving equipment with precision and foresight. From fire extinguishers to breathing apparatus, the way safety systems are arranged on board plays a crucial role in how effectively they can be used in real emergencies.
Our approach blends international safety standards with vessel-specific design. We assess every compartment—from engine rooms to accommodation areas—to determine the most efficient and accessible placement for each safety item. The result is a seamless integration of protection without obstructing daily operations.
A clean, intuitive safety system layout is critical when seconds matter. We ensure equipment is mounted at eye level, tagged clearly, and placed where crews can reach it instinctively. Our certified team ensures compliance with SOLAS regulations while optimizing flow and visibility.
Just like a well-laid electrical or piping system, a safety system layout should be intuitive. Fire suppression triggers, escape masks, and signage must work together as part of a fail-safe design. This structured approach reduces confusion in high-stress situations and enhances crew confidence.
Every system we install is a result of thoughtful planning, informed by years of onboard experience. Whether it's CO₂ room distribution lines or the positioning of emergency escape breathing devices (EEBDs), we focus on both function and readiness.
