Swimming can quickly turn dangerous in a variety of different ways, so the 'PLOOTA' water safety device aims to enable wearers to ensure they're always covered in case of a problem. The 'PLOOTA' works by being worn around the neck whenever you're heading into the water for a swim, partaking in some water sports or even as a precautionary device for those who can't swim while they are near water. If the 'PLOOTA' detects that you are underwater for too long it will automatically deploy the floatation equipment to bring you back to the surface to prevent you from drowning.
The 'PLOOTA' water safety device is an effective piece of equipment that can be used by kids and adults alike to stay safe in the water.
