ResQ Capsule is a compact, all-in-one emergency escape tool designed to save lives while integrating seamlessly into your daily driving routine. With its sleek capsule shape, it fits neatly into cup holders, door pockets, or even center consoles. It’s always accessible, never intrusive.

The device features three detachable sections: a high-strength window breaker made of stainless steel lies beneath a translucent white safety cap, a rechargeable air freshener for everyday use, and a tightly rolled, auto-inflating life buoy stored at the base.

In an emergency, simply pull off the top cap to access the metal tip, and use it to shatter the window. Then grab and tug the rubber pull tab at the bottom to deploy the life buoy. Once it’s submerged or comes in contact with water, the life buoy automatically inflates, providing flotation support. The buoy also glows in the dark, ensuring visibility even in low-light conditions. Each module can operate independently, allowing ResQ Capsule to adapt to your needs–whether as a daily-use device or a streamlined escape tool.

Lightweight, modular, and ready when you need it most, ResQ Capsule is your everyday essential for emergency readiness.

Your work belongs in the conversation.
