Mustang Survival launches ISO-approved PFD in Europe

Canadian brand, Mustang Survival has launched the Minimalist Belt Pack to the European market for 2023. The product is the company’s first Personal Flotation Device (PFD) approved by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO).

The Minimalist Belt Pack is a manual flotation device that provides 70N of buoyancy in a pillow-style bladder when deployed by an inflation cord. The belt pack has a discrete minimalist design made for inshore paddles and is designed for skilled swimmers and anglers.

“After breaking into the European market with apparel, we are thrilled to be adding our first PFD to the line-up,” says Nigel Parkes, international managing director.

“The ISO approval for the Minimalist Belt Pack is a significant milestone for Mustang Survival. The company has always been committed to providing the highest level of safety to its customers. The ISO certification ensures that the product has been tested and meets the highest safety standards, giving customers peace of mind when they are out on the water.”

“Being known first and foremost for our PFDs and buoyancy aids in North America, we’re now able to round out the collection in the UK. With summer upon us, and the weather getting warmer, the Minimalist is an excellent addition to the kit of any SUP paddler or angler. It serves as a lightweight safety option that provides the user with all-day comfort to chase the feeling of freedom that being on and near the water brings.”

Key features include a pillow-style bladder for easy over-the-head wear, deployment via manual inflation cord and molle webbing. 

The Minimalist Belt Pack is now available for purchase on Mustang Survival’s website.
