Lifeshirt GlobalWho We Are
Marine Safety Products, LLC was founded by an experienced team of water enthusiasts and investors in 2015.
The Lifeshirt® concept was inspired by a personal experience with a near drowning incident on the Florida coast. At that time, we recognized the existing water safety market lacked products that both children and adults would actually wear. Since then we’ve been on a journey developing and testing the Lifeshirt® to meet the highest standards and regulatory requirements for water safety around the world.
We’re proud to bring the Lifeshirt® to market to not only save lives but give family and friends piece of mind knowing their loved ones are safe when they’re on or around the water.

COMMITMENT TO SAFETY
Be Safe ®
We understand that saving lives on the water requires more than innovative products. It requires educating people on water safety from all walks of life, from those that live on the water to those that only swim a few times a year.
We feel its also important to recognize that water safety accidents affect individual communities differently. For example, between 1999-2010 the fatal unintentional drowning rate for minorities was significantly higher across all age groups than their peers. In addition, fatal drownings remain the second-leading cause of unintentional injury related death for children under the age of 14 behind only motor vehicle crashes.
For these reasons, we’ve started the Be Safe® campaign which partners with businesses and communities to promote water safety.
