OUR HISTORY  

 

PILMIC is a registered trademark of naval devices to save lives, patented worldwide.

Originally from a port city and aware of naval tragedies, the intention of achieving effective devices to face extreme exposure was born. As a result, a technology was developed with functions and standards superior to those previously known, providing in the same team the functional capabilities necessary to make EL NAUFRAGO SURVIVE.

 

 

OUR COMMITMENT  

 

That all those who take risks in aquatic activities can return alive, applying innovative designs and research in aquatic ergonomics, materials, insulation and buoyancy as parts of a comprehensive attitude.

PURPOSE  

 

We, the creators of the Pilmic suit, live in a port city. Over the years there have been deaths from shipwrecks that have mourned us all. We provide a solution to avoid these deaths, getting crew members back to  their home alive to reunite with their loved ones.


Scientific studies have shown deadly deficiencies in immersion suits and therefore the International Maritime Organization recommends that suits improve their protection against hypothermia.

Because of this we set out to create an immersion suit so that castaways don't feel cold, don't get wet, don't have to swim in the waves and
  are away from danger of drowning. In this way avoid suffering until the moment of rescue.

We have reached our goal and we are pleased to offer the world the immersion suit with the highest safety standard, without hypothermia for 24 hours, effectively saving life,
  whatever the state of the sea from the north pole to the south pole.
