The latest trend gaining momentum in the market is Implementation of coated fabric for life rafts. The polyurethane-coated fabric (PCF) was introduced in the general aviation life raft market in the US in 1995. Zodiac Aero Evacuation Systems (Air Cruise Company) has been one of the pioneers in offering PCF fabric-based survival kits in the marine industry, as well as opted the same for some of their aviation life rafts models. This material displays several advantages over the traditional neoprene rubber that are widely used in life rafts. As claimed by Zodiac Aero Evacuation Systems, the use of PCM over conventional rubber can extend the service life of life rafts, with a potential of saving consumers' money.
