SOLAS-Grade Marine Distress Signals

Ikaros™ high-performance distress signals from Hansson Pyrotechnics exceed US Coast Guard requirements and meet the more stringent international SOLAS (Safety of Life At Sea) requirements of greater visibility and duration. All Ikaros™ signals are simple to use in stressful emergency situations. You simply grab the tab on the cap and pull to deploy. The full range of distress signals is designed to meet every emergency. When you need to be seen, you want the brighter, longer burn time of Ikaros™ SOLAS signals.

Ikaros™ Distress Signals Meet or Exceed SOLAS 74/96 and US Coast Guard Requirements.
