A DAY IN THE LIFE..........What is it like to be a PMI rope? You get to be the lifeline of a rescue, the main component of a patient lowering, a key component in a haul system,and not to mention all those anchors. What could be better!A day in the life of a PMI rope is forever challenging. More than a commodity, PMI rope production takes inspiring engineering and a watchful eye toinsure that standards are exceeded, to create the best performing lifeline on the market.PMI ropes and equipment are built and independently certified to applicable national and internationally recognized standards, and as added confidenceour own quality assurance program is registered to ISO 9001 Quality Registration. Our in house laboratory is built to the same specifications asindependent laboratories, and works twice as hard.Although we have the tools to meet the standards in house, all the real research and development begins in the field. Customers and employees whouse PMI gear provide the foundation for our product development. Our rope and gear become practical solutions, not just the current fad.For you and your customers, we offer several resources of interest. To find out more or get involved in the standards and organizations that not onlykeep the gear you use safe, but most importantly, keep people safe, check out the list below.PMI is involved in all of the committees and professional organizations listed here and in the 2008 PMI Catalog. We do stay busy, but quality is all inthe details. Each resource helps bring a safer PMI rope or piece of gear to the person using it. Plus the best bonus of all, each committee and organizationgives back to the community of rescuers and climbers and we couldn’t be more proud of that - not only as a manufacturer but as users too.The day in the life of a PMI rope can be a challenging one - but commitment to excellence is always our goal.
