Material Science

Choosing the Right Material
for Every Application

We work with three core materials — each selected for specific use cases and performance requirements.

Marine-Grade PVC

1100 denier PVC fabric — our most versatile material. UV-stabilized, abrasion-resistant, and REACH compliant. Ideal for recreational boats, SUP boards, and kayaks where weight and cost efficiency matter.

Premium Hypalon/CSM

Superior chemical resistance and UV stability. Hypalon boats can last 15-20 years with proper care. Recommended for commercial, rescue, and military applications where long-term durability is critical.

Fiberglass & Aluminum

Deep-V fiberglass hulls for RIBs and patrol boats — wave-slicing performance in rough conditions. Aluminum hulls for heavy-duty commercial workboats requiring maximum strength and load capacity.

Manufacturing Capabilities

Precision Manufacturing
at Every Step

Our 12,000 m² facility is equipped with specialized machinery for every stage of production.

CNC Cutting

Computer-controlled cutting ensures precise, repeatable fabric panels with minimal waste. Every piece fits exactly as designed.

High-Frequency Welding

Industrial HF welding creates seams stronger than the base material. Consistent temperature and pressure control ensures air-tight seals across every production run.

Drop Stitch Core Assembly

Thousands of polyester threads connect top and bottom fabric layers, allowing high-pressure inflation (15-20 PSI) for rigid, stable SUP boards and floors.

Pressure Testing

Every inflatable product is pressure-tested before shipping. RIB tubes are tested at 1.5x rated pressure — if it holds there, it will perform on the water.

Seam Strength Testing

Random samples from each production batch undergo destructive seam strength testing. Results are logged and traceable to specific production runs.

Water Testing

Every RIB model undergoes sea trials before certification. Real-world testing in coastal conditions validates performance, handling, and stability.

Design & Engineering

Engineered for Real Conditions

Our design philosophy starts with how the boat will be used — then builds the engineering around that use case.

**Deep-V Hull Design:** Our fiberglass hulls feature calculated deadrise angles optimized for each model's length and intended use. Steeper V for rough-water performance, shallower for stability. **Multi-Chamber Safety:** Every boat features 3-7 independent air chambers. If one compartment is compromised, the remaining chambers keep the boat afloat and operational. **Ergonomic Layout:** Console position, tube height, and seat placement are designed around operator comfort during extended use — whether patrolling, fishing, or transporting. **Custom Configuration:** Tube colors, console configuration, fuel capacity, accessory mounts — each model can be customized to match specific operational requirements.
