In general there are two types of line throwing devices on the market today that complies with IMO/SOLAS regulations.
- The pyrotechnical type, which uses gun powder as propellant.
- The pneumatic type, PLT®, which uses compressed air as propellant.
Restech Norway AS is the only company in the world that manufactures the pneumatic PLT® that complies with IMO/SOLAS regulations. Several shipbuilders and shipyard have placed the PLT® equipment in their construction specifications, because of the customers' requirements and the IMO/SOLAS regulations.
We have experienced that the market is changing from pyrotechnical to pneumatic equipment. Read more for the reasons why.
