Success of the basket

Safe Transfer

Safe Transfer personnel basket was developed in 1985 by the Danish shipping company ESVAGT A/S.

Because of the success of the safety basket, ESVAGT A/S decided in 2014 to transfer the production rights to West-Marine A/S. Immediately the company Safe Transfer A/S was established to continue the success and improve the safety basket further.

With an unwavering focus on innovation and collaboration, we are steadfast in its mission to elevate the design of the personnel basket for offshore transfers. Through ongoing research and development, we are determined to ensure that our personnel basket remains at the forefront of industry standards.

Offshore safety basket is key

Crew transfer is often seen in offshore marine activities, particularly at the oil rigs and offshore installations. A personnel transfer basket is designed for marine offshore transfer with the overall purpose of enhancing safety levels for personnel being lifted between ship and platform.

Development of this personnel basket now comprises a rigid seated basket – even with the possibility of accommodating stretchers.
