Plastimo Dye Marker

PLASTIMO Dye Marker: The Ultimate Daytime Distress Signal for Marine Safety

Ensure you can be seen in an emergency with the PLASTIMO Dye Marker, a crucial piece of safety equipment for every mariner. Designed for immediate and effective daytime distress signalling, this compact marker is an indispensable tool for anyone on or in the water. When your visibility is the key to a swift rescue, the PLASTIMO Dye Marker provides a powerful, unmissable signal to attract the attention of nearby vessels and aircraft, dramatically increasing your chances of being located.

This marine dye marker is used for daytime emergency distress signalling and search and rescue marking. A person in distress scatters the dye marker on the water when a potential rescue vessel or aircraft appears. It spreads as a brilliant spotting mark, clearly visible as a distress signal for up to an hour, and in good visibility can be seen by aircraft over 10 km away. Ideal for boating, it is also an extra safety equipment for windsurfing, diving and snorkeling.

Key Features & Benefits:

* Exceptional Visibility: Deploys a large, brilliant, and highly concentrated fluorescent green area on the water´s surface. This vivid patch is instantly recognizable from the air and sea, providing a stark contrast against the water for maximum detectability.
* Rapid & Simple Deployment: In a high-stress emergency, simplicity is vital. The PLASTIMO Dye Marker is housed in a compact, waterproof sachet that is easy to open and use. Simply tear it open and scatter the contents onto the water to create an immediate signal.
* Long-Lasting Signal: The dye remains highly visible for a significant duration, providing a persistent signal for up to one hour, giving rescue teams a prolonged window to spot your location.
* Perfect Lifebuoy Accessory: Enhance the effectiveness of your man-overboard (MOB) equipment. Attaching a dye marker to your Lifebuoys ensures that once deployed, the location of the person in the water is marked with a highly visible reference point, aiding in complex recovery operations.

The PLASTIMO Dye Marker is a small, low-cost investment that delivers invaluable peace of mind. It is a fundamental component of a layered safety system, ensuring that you have a reliable method for visual signalling during daylight hours when flares might be less effective. Don´t leave your safety to chance.
