Don’t Let Expired Airbags Put Your Crew at Risk – Check Your Gear & Save with Paratech
Did you know that all air lifting bags have a limited service life and eventually expire—regardless of the brand?

If you're unsure of your current bag's status, now is the time to check, especially with the Paratech Control Equipment Trade-In Program ending on July 1st, 2025. This limited-time offer gives you the chance to upgrade your entire system, including control equipment—something that’s not typically eligible for trade-in discounts.
Using expired air lifting bags can compromise rescue safety and effectiveness. Not sure how old your bags are or whether they're still serviceable? Check your air bags in 2 easy steps:
- Enter your bag’s serial number—any brand, model, or year is accepted.
- Instantly find out if your bag is still good, nearing expiration, or already expired.
