AKM Safety – the life-saving addition to any PPE

The risks of suspension trauma are well known to many high-altitude workers as well as decision-makers. Yet, due to the lack of comprehensive solutions, these risks are often merely tolerated or ignored. With the unique AKM Safety Suspension Trauma Protector, this danger is now universally mitigated – without any action required by the accident victim – and the available rescue time is significantly extended.

When hanging from the rear attachment point of a safety harness, unconsciousness and suspension trauma with irreversible damage – even leading to death – can occur after just 10 minutes. The AKM Safety Suspension Trauma Protector automatically shifts the injured person into a sitting-like position, relieving pressure on the leg veins – through a timed, automatic transfer from the back attachment to the front chest connection of the harness.

Worldwide Product Innovation for Greater Safety and Efficiency in Fall Rescue

The AKM Safety Suspension Trauma Protector is a unique product innovation that has never existed in this form before. Through the automatic and time-delayed transfer of the attachment point from the back to the front, the safe time window for rescuing a fallen person is decisively extended. At the same time, the leg veins are relieved, allowing the victim to move more freely. The system reduces high operational costs, as rescue teams no longer need to remain permanently on standby in the immediate vicinity. The Protector can be used as an addition to existing PPE systems or integrated directly. The solution is patented worldwide.
