Devoting a large amount of their time to keeping up with technological innovations and being highly involved in projects for new boats, the R & D office provides technical solutions responding to more and more extensive design, quality and cost control requirements.
The main aim of the laboratory is to search for imaginative solutions in order to reduce production time. The R & D department is particularly committed to the yard's environmental approach.
