Pneumatic airbags are a type of cargo securing means, used as an independent means of securing cargo, or in combination with other additional cargo securing elements, such as tie-down straps, anti-skid mats, and other means.

Airbag Made of polished dense fabric or paper from propylene threads woven into a dense fabric. This air bag technology makes air bags moisture-proof and completely airtight.

Depending on the dimensions of the cargo, air bags have different sizes (width, height), are equipped with an air valve through which air is supplied by pumping with a compressor, filling the empty space between the cargo and pressing it tightly against the walls of the vehicle by spreading, thereby preventing load from displacement during movement. Airbags are blown off in a few seconds, they are intended for reusable use, provided that the surface of the bag is intact. Air fastening bags can fill a space from 100 to 600 mm.
