For commercial work, I wouldn't be looking at recreational suits. Buy a viking or something competitive with it. Vulcanized rubber is tough and easy to field repair. That is what they are built for.
 
Is it as strong as other suits? It seems very flexible, making me think it's also a fair bit thinner than many other neoprene dry suits. Would you use this for everyday abuse in an environment where sharp edges and dirty waters are a constant factor?
Personally, I would go for something tougher and cheaper. Less change of damaging it, and if you do, much cheaper to replace.

It is the toughest suit out there.
