In order to ensure the safety of fishermen's operations, the Weihai Municipal Government will enhance the sea "intelligent life-saving" capacity into the 2024 municipal shortcomings in the matter, now 6400 sets of life jackets are stepping up manufacturing.

    

    In the past, the old life jacket was bloated and inconvenient and did not have the function of keeping warm, which greatly affected the operational efficiency. This life jacket is the final product finalized by combining the fishermen's trial wear and feedback. Yu Runlai, the project leader of Dishang Group's positioning lifejacket project, said: "Its buoyancy can reach about 85 Nm, which is much higher than the national requirement of 74 Nm. Including our reflective strips are the highest level of marine reflective strips. Now the daily production volume is around 200 to 300 pieces."
