Secumar

Many companies have made safety at sea their area of work. However, hardly any of them have approached the subject with such high requirements and with such sound scientific knowledge as Bernhardt Apparatebau GmbH & Co from Holm, near Hamburg, Germany which for more than 60 years now has manufactured the most innovative lifesaving equipment under the brand name of SECUMAR. Logically consistent research and demand for top quality has helped Bernhardt Apparatebau attain a world leading position in this field.

The starting point for this unique development was the foundation research carried out by the company’s founder, Jost Bernhardt. His father Karl Bernhardt had been manufacturing diving equipment since 1926, so Jost Bernhardt decided to turn to the area of emergency sea rescue equipment after the war.
