The HotSeat is designed for rapidly transporting a subject during helicopter short-hauling or hoisting. Quick-donning and built to last, the HotSeat expedites rescues by securing the subject in a stable, semi-seated orientation without needing to place them in a harness. It easily adjusts to fit small juvenile patients or larger persons up to 227 kg (500 lb). The included compression bag stores the HotSeat in a compact size. The bag can be attached to the HotSeat for carrying a helmet for the subject and stowing their personal items. Improvements to the HotSeat include a second support handle for more leverage and control, tagline attachment loops, a streamlined closure system, and illustrated instructions.

The VERTEX VENT helmet is very comfortable, thanks to its six-point textile suspension and CENTERFIT and FLIP&FIT systems, which guarantee that the helmet fits securely on the head. The adjustable-strength chinstrap makes it ideal for both work at height and on the ground. It has ventilation holes with sliding shutters to allow airflow through the helmet. With its potential for integration of a Petzl headlamp, hearing protection, and multiple accessories, it is an entirely modular helmet, thus responding to the specific additional needs of professionals.
Very comfortable: - six-point textile suspension conforms perfectly to the shape of the head - CENTERFIT feature allows perfect centering of the helmet on the head, thanks to its two side adjustment wheels - FLIP&FIT system allows the headband to be positioned in a low position, guaranteeing that the helmet fits securely on the head. The system folds into the shell for easy storage and transportation - comes with interchangeable standard comfort foam
Protection designed for work at height and on the ground: - DUAL chinstrap allows the worker to adjust chinstrap strength in order to adapt the helmet to different environments: work at height (EN 12492) or on the ground (EN 397). The clip has two positions, corresponding to these two uses: high strength, limiting the risk of losing the helmet during a fall, and low strength, limiting the risk of strangulation if the helmet is snagged while the user is on the ground - shock absorption achieved through deformation of the outer shell - vent holes with sliding shutters allow the ventilation to be adjusted as needed, while wearing the helmet
Modular accessories: - eye shield with EASYCLIP side attachment system for easy installation - Petzl headlamp with mounts, or headlamp with elastic headband - helmet protector keeps the shell free from soiling and paint splash - nape protector provides effective sun and rain protection for the nape of the neck - nametag holder allows user to be easily identified - changeable chinstrap and foam - hearing protection - available in seven colors: white, yellow, red, black, orange, blue and green - also comes in two high-visibility versions: yellow and orange
