Welcome to Restube

RESTUBE Safety Buoy is great for confident swimmers aged 10 and up. It’s not a toy or a floatie – but a helpful extra layer of safety for family outings. For small children or non-swimmers, traditional flotation aids like vests or arm floaties are more appropriate. However, RESTUBE can be a helpful addition for family trips to the lake or beach. Little ones and non-swimmers should still use proper flotation aids. And always with adult supervision.

No, it is not a substitute. The RESTUBE safety system is the most versatile system for more safety in the water. Anyone who needs an approved swimming aid in vest form, for example for stand-up paddling in Switzerland, can use the PFD. In any case, always follow the local rules and regulations. Safety concerns us all!

Yes, the Safety Buoy may be taken on a plane. Depending on the version, original RESTUBE CO2 cartridges contain 16g or 10.9g CO2 and are under pressure. They are considered a hazardous material in air transport. However, according to the IATA and LBA, passengers may take up to two CO2 cartridges with them in combination with the Safety Buoy. Register RESTUBE CO2 cartridges promptly before your trip begins by phone with the airline and carry a written confirmation from the airline (email) and the green flyer during your trip.

The Safety Buoy is recommended for good swimmers from the age of 10. The child must understand that, in an emergency situation, he or she must trigger and lean over the top of it. It’s best to let your child try the Safety Buoy a few times in shallow water while you’re there, so he or she can experience how easy the release works and how well the buoyancy can help immediately.

Another person close to you is in trouble? This is a critical situation in which you have to be very careful! In no case should you swim to the person without a float, as even a child can develop enormous forces in a panic situation, which can be dangerous for an adult. Even with a float, such as the RESTUBE Safety Buoy, you should be in very good shape and ideally trained in rescuing other people. It is best to hand the inflated elongated buoy to the other person from a safe distance and wait to see if the situation stabilizes. In any case, you should seek further professional help and never put yourself in danger.
