Description
SOLAS parachute flares can be seen from the greatest distance out at sea
SOLAS flares such as the Red Parachute Signal Rocket offer far better performance than conventional pyrotechnic signals. This is because they are designed to meet stricter standards set by an international safety organization (SOLAS stands for Safety Of Life At Sea). SOLAS parachute flares emit more than 1,000′ and burn at a dazzling 30,000 candela for 40 seconds. These SOLAS signal rocket flares are able to be used for commercial and charter vessels.
For most coastal boaters, non-SOLAS flares will suffice. But if you are an offshore boater who wants flares that can be seen at the greatest distance for the longest period of time, choose SOLAS flares.
