Medical oxygen and resuscitators
Inspection, refilling and exchange of medical oxygen sets and resuscitators, and checks of the ship's medical equipment and stores.
Why it matters
When a crew member stops breathing, there is no time to look for a regulator that works. Oxygen sets sit in the hospital for years and are only opened when they are needed.
We check them properly, keep the cylinders in date and help you keep the medical chest in line with your flag's list.

A vessel name, an IMO number and an ETA are enough to get a quote moving. Attach last year's certificates if you have them.
