There are a great variety of liferaft products including rubberized waterproof fabrics, rubber-coated fabric products, industrial supplies, insulating materials and sporting goods.

rubber-coated fabrics, are particularly noted for their outstanding quality and reliability, thanks to unrivaled technology gained trough persistent research and a wealth of experience. And, as everyone agrees, rubber-coated fabric is essential material for inflatable liferafts, life jackets, chutes, rescue boats and other lifesaving appliances. It builds reliability and quality into lifesaving equipment. Today, Fujikura's lifesaving appliances, designated as “TYPE APPROVAL by J. M. O. T.”, enjoy a worldwide reputation for their peerless reliability.

The inflatable raft models are those designated as part of lifesaving equipment for international vessels (excluding fishing boats) navigating beyond coastal areas. They feature structures and accessories as required under the International Convention For The Safety Of Life At Sea (SOLAS) LSA Code.4.2 in 1996.

These inflatable life rafts are inflated by liquefied CO2 gas (sometimes mixed with N2 gas). They are equipped with a boarding ramp that unfolds automatically, a canopy and a flooring capable of retaining heat most effectively and large water pockets to ensure stability. They are designed to inflate completely in 10 to 25 seconds after dropping, under ordinary temperature, so that the crew can board them safely and quickly.

The structure and performance of these highly reliable life rafts satisfy the provisions of SOLAS and the Rules of Vessel Lifesaving Equipment, such as (1) capacity to withstand service in temperatures ranging from -30ºC to 65ºC, (2) weight of 185 kg or less and (3) capacity to withstand any sea condition for 30 days. They have also undergone a dropping test from a height of 30m.
