Frequently Asked Questions
SOLAS handheld flares are designed to signal distress and attract attention during emergencies at sea. They provide a highly visible bright light that can be seen from a long distance, helping rescuers locate the distressed vessel quickly.
Parachute flares are launched into the air and deploy a bright flare that descends slowly with a parachute, allowing the light to be visible over a wider area and from farther distances. Handheld flares are intended to be held and signal at lower altitudes.
Smoke signals produce dense colored smoke that is especially useful for daytime signaling. They help in alerting nearby vessels and rescuers to your location when visibility might be reduced or when light signals are less effective.
SOLAS flares meet international safety standards for marine distress signaling and provide reliable, highly visible signals in emergencies. Upgrading to SOLAS-certified flares enhances safety by ensuring your distress signals are effective and compliant with regulations.
