Vimpex commits to Paratech by investing in stock, spares and repair/maintenance training

Vimpex's reputation as an established and respected supplier to the Emergency Services is significantly reinforced by the company's appointment as exclusive UK distributor for Paratech Inc.

Paratech's USAR, Shoring & Marine Damage Control Strut Systems, Vehicle Stabilisation Tools, Maxiforce Airlifting Bags, Leak Sealing Equipment and Forcible Entry Hand Tools have been in use in the UK for over twenty years.

A series of planned regional demo events will allow existing users to see the many add-ons and accessories, which for a small investment, can completely transform existing equipment and significantly enhance technical rescue capabilities.

Vimpex is committing to Paratech by investment in stock, spares and repair/maintenance training to ensure that service levels and support for the Paratech range is better than ever before.

Those involved in extrication will be particularly interested in the new Paratech Vehicle Stabilisation system, which is literally head and shoulders above the competition in its ability to not only stabilise, but also lift and secure heavy vehicles. The system can manage loads up to 9 tonnes even at full extension and has a unique 5 year warranty. The equipment has been designed to overcome all of the shortcomings of competitive products.

Other extrication products include Paratech's Maxiforce Air Lifting Bags that with their three layer, fully wrapped Kevlar lining are undoubtedly the safest and most durable available.

Vimpex's selection by Paratech bolsters their range of rescue products and comes very soon after Vimpex's announcement as UK supplier of ISG Infrasys Thermal Imaging Cameras.
