Plumett has designed, developed and manufactured a range of air launchers. These launchers have been in production for 15 years and are in use around the world.

The compressed air powered launchers are for grapnels, lines and projectiles suitable for defence, rescue and hazardous area operations. Repeatable firings come from a rechargeable air cylinder.
