Crane Stretcher

Fibrelight Crane Stretcher

The Fibrelight Crane Stretcher is a lightweight, high-performance casualty recovery system designed for commercial vessels equipped with a davit or crane. Engineered for fast, safe, and efficient horizontal casualty recovery, it combines simplicity of operation with exceptional strength, making it ideal for offshore, marine, and emergency response applications.

Weighing just 18 kg, the stretcher is easy to handle, deploy, and stow, enabling rapid response when every second counts. Its innovative design provides excellent casualty support while remaining highly manoeuvrable during lifting and recovery operations.

Constructed using high-strength carbon fibre rods, the stretcher offers an outstanding strength-to-weight ratio, reducing handling effort without compromising durability. 316 stainless steel ballast rungs provide stability in the water by adding weight where it is most effective, making casualty access easier and improving overall recovery performance.

Integrated floats keep the stretcher neutrally buoyant while enhancing visibility in the water, and specially designed spars create a wider opening that simplifies casualty entry and provides a stable recovery platform. Rope line tethers at each end allow operators to maintain control during deployment and recovery, even in high winds.

The Fibrelight Crane Stretcher is supplied with a quick-access deployment bag, available in orange or grey, and offers a choice of short (50 cm) or long (150 cm) lifting bridles to suit different vessel configurations. Load-rated 316 stainless steel lifting rings enable the simultaneous recovery of both a casualty and a diver, while the patented webbing system provides enhanced support and security throughout the recovery process.

Tested to 450 kg, the Fibrelight Crane Stretcher delivers a robust, dependable, and low-maintenance solution for professional marine rescue operations.
