Ensuring your safety on board: the core of our mission
While liferafts, harnesses and crew overload gear are the products that come to mind when you say "safety," at Navimo safety is a much broader concept. We put as much care into the design and manufacture of thru-hull fittings, ladders, reefing gear, fenders and compasses as we do traditional safety equipment, because they all contribute to your safety onboard. Safety is a state of mind at Navimo, and reflects our continuing commitment to quality; another reason Navimo is unique!

Safety starts with quality
Overall quality is part of the Plastimo culture: at every stage, our technicians monitor the manufacturing process following strict guidelines. The total quality concept encompasses every department and has enabled Plastimo to obtain ISO 9001 certification for the manufacture of liferafts. Our quality process allows us to guarantee optimum reliability and safety, which is reflected in our warranty coverage: a 12-year warranty on every liferaft and a five-year warranty on every compass.

Research and development: on the crest of innovation for 40 years
Innovation is only worthwhile if it lasts. To build longevity into our products, our R&D team takes into consideration the expectations of our customers. Together with our marketing team, our engineers and technicians participate in product development with boaters, designers and industry professionals, so we can provide the best possible products to meet our customers' needs. Our commitment to innovation ensures that our products are functional and aesthetically pleasing, and that safety is an integral component.

Many Plastimo products that were considered innovative when introduced are now industry standards. We pride ourselves on the success and durability of our products, and on the high level of trust we've earned from our customers as a result.

Plastimo, the partner of the most famous racers

Ever since the early days, Plastimo has been developing, for and with racers, the products which help them improve their overall performance, both in terms of precision and speed. From the legendary compasses specially adjusted for racing conditions, to specific "glide-and-speed" antifouling, with a special mention for the latest-born : the inflatable life-jacket Optisafe with integrated harness, distress beacon and flashlight, developed in cooperation with 5 top racers, for the Jacques Vabre Transatlantic race.

Combining the racers' experience with Plastimo's engineering know-how, these products are also made available to all yachtsmen ; because even if you do not sail for a medal or to beat a record, you will always deserve the best!
