Product:

We manufacture a self-testing, disposable, simple, inexpensive and laboratory calibrated alcohol breathalyser, which detects the presence of alcohol in the body and gives an accurate indication of whether the blood alcohol content has exceeded a specific limit. Don't use other cheap imitations which have no Internationally Certified Quality Approvals. Your life's not worth the risk.

The Redline product is the only disposable breathalyser in the world to have French NF, German TUV and Standards Australia approval, for both manufacturing and performance criteria. It is only one of two chemical based products in the world to be homologated and approved for use by the French Police and Gendarmerie. Our product is perfectly suited to the concept of self- testing. Electronic devices are very expensive and their use for a wider general public application is extremely limited. These electronic devices have to be recalibrated by an accredited Government Laboratory on a regular basis, to ensure accuracy of measurement. In addition, it can take up to 5 minutes for these machines to re-zero themselves between readings.

Our product is used extensively throughout the world as a self-test screening device. The French Police and the Gendarmerie have been using Chemical based testers for over 12 years to test the general public and to educate them on the benefits of self-testing. We have worked closely with the French road safety organisations, and have been successful in assisting the French government in reducing the accident rate relating to alcohol abuse on the roads down to 1955 levels. The French goverment have embarked on an ongoing campaign to reduce the impact of alcohol related drink drive accidents. They have endorsed the Redline Brand.

Technical:

The tester consists of a small (70 mm) glass tube containing yellow chemicals, which turn green in the presence of alcohol. The length of the green colour change is in proportion to the amount of alcohol. The tube has an arrow indicating the direction in which the breath must be passed and also a red calibration line indicating the legal driving limit. Inside the tube on either side of the yellow chemicals is a filling of white crystals, which protect the chemicals against moisture and give the product a shelf life of 2 years. This storage Silica Gel is harmless and non- toxic. A plastic snap-off end cap closes both ends of the tube. A plastic bag containing a neck valve, which measures the volume of breath passed through the tester, accompanies each tester. The plug of chemicals is located in the tube by means of two resistant sieves. The size of the plug, the nature of the particles and the chemical impregnation are designed to allow the breath to pass through at the correct rate for any alcohol in the breath to react with the chemicals and change the colour from a yellow to green. The measuring bag is a critical part of the system as it measures the amount of the breath, which is passed through the tester. The volume is the basis on which the calibration is done. The US Consumer Product Safety Commission has determined that the Redline product does not indicate any potential hazard or toxicity that would require any specific labelling.

Quality Control and Approvals.

We are proud to announce that we have purchased one of the most advanced chemical testing equipment presently available in the world. The LNE Laboratories of France, who are the controllers of the NF quality mark, manufactured this machine especially for us. The LNE Laboratories of France is the most advanced in the field of testing alcohol devices throughout the world. They also hold the Chair of The International Association of Chemical Testing.

This equipment enables Redline Products to maintain quality standards of production equal to the requirements of the LNE itself. This partnership with the LNE Laboratories places Redline Products and the LNE in a position where they will be able to advise Governments on standards and procedures which should be adopted to ensure quality.

Water alcohol mixtures are maintained at a temperature of 34 degrees in a series of flasks, which provide computer controlled predetermined volumes of simulated breath at exactly the correct temperature and moisture concentration.

Our product has the following approvals:

  1. The NF of France for both the Public, Police and Gendamerie use.
  2. TUV Rheinland of Germany
  3. Standards Australia
  4. Schuster Laboratories of the USA
  5. RJ Lee Laboratories of the USA
  6. US Department of Consumer Safety
  7. Securite Routiere and the Prevention Routiere.
  8. ESR Testing Laboratories of New Zealand
  9. Spanish National Testing Laboratories
  10. Arrive Alive SA
  11. Automobile Club of Le Mans
  12. Austrian and French Automobile Associations
  13. Touring Club of Switzerland
  14. The US Department of Transport (NHTSA) Laboratories have tested Redline in 3 different lighting conditions and the 12 independant observers issued Redline with a 98.4% pass rate.
