The material

Naked hull in house produced Material

Our hull production begins with the use of technopolymer virgin granules, ensuring high-quality material for durability and strength. To bring this vision to life, we employ a state-of-the-art 3D printing machine specifically designed and optimized for this product. This custom-built machine allows us to precisely control the printing process, resulting in a seamless and precise hull construction. By utilizing 3D printing technology, we achieve greater design flexibility, enabling customization and rapid prototyping. The combination of technopolymer granules and our specialized 3D printing machine ensures that our hulls are produced with the utmost precision, reliability, and efficiency.

Glass transition

The plastic used in our hulls exhibits a glass transition at -20°C. This means that even at water temperatures, the material remains in a plastic state, ensuring exceptional strength and durability for superior performance and reliability.
