Our Materials
The nautical ship building industry has a major role to play in encouraging respect for the environment and in producing clean products and technologies. We believe that shipyards – such as Innovation Yachts – that embrace green technology and a reduced floating footprint (through recycled materials, reduced carbon emissions and sustainability) show responsibility for our environment to future end customers.
Innovation Yachts is committed to testing and incorporating real solutions like recyclable composites, natural core materials or harmless matrix (resin) systems in order to offer our bespoke yacht customers the highest quality and cleanest products and materials currently available.

Recycling
Innovation Yachts not only uses fully recyclable materials. More than that we process the whole recycle process indoor and fabricate fillers and new building materials out of our recycled materials.
We use these materials for the structural yacht building as well as to produce new building materials for the interior and for moulds.
By doing this, we do not only demonstrate our commitment and credibility to make the nautical industry cleaner. Running our recycling program, we are also able to offer our customers special material solutions which are innovative, future-oriented and high-end quality.
