Safe, stable, light, fast, fuel-efficient, easy to transport, with multichamber tubes acting as shock absorbers.
Latest Generation Technology
Valiant craft are manufactured with a highly industrialised process, guaranteeing greater reliability with a constant and uniform quality. Through design, planning and development with the most advanced techniques of CAD/CAM, production of the craft is automated and robotised in the main production stages, having advanced environmental controls for the manufacturing of GRP, where applied high technology eliminates vapours and by-products.
Sports series material
This material, designed specifically for inflatable craft of recreational usage, is manufactured by MEHLER HAKU, having more than 40 years experience in the manufacturing of reinforced materials answering the technical demands of the RIB industry for high performance materials.
THERMOWELDING ®
This process which combines fusion with calendering at high pressures is used to assemble the different parts of the tubes with a system of double internal/external tapes providing welds stronger than the material itself.
VITECH ®
Derived from the technology of the aeronautical industry, the lamination process of the semi-rigid Valiant craft cis a combination of advanced techniques of injection moulding achieving an excellent strength / weight ratio.
Professional series material
AKRON TPE ® of High Resistance to Abrasion has been developed for the use in professional, army, and rescue craft, having been accepted for this purpose by the most prestigious organizations of rescue and safety at sea, such as the US COAST GUARD and British RNLI, complying with the MIL B-53067 Regulations of the US Department of Defense and having both the RINA CCE 36599/1 certification and SOLAS certification for use in the manufacture of rescue craft.
The main characteristics of the material can be summarized as having an extremely high resistance to abrasion, five times greater than that of Neoprene / Hypalon, together with a very high resistance to pollution, to the action fo U.V. rays and to impact in accordance to the puncture test, FD standard NO-101B (method 2031).
ISO 9001:2000 Certification
In 2001 the Quality Management System of Valiant has been certified ISO 9001:2000 which applies to: Design, manufacture and repair management for semi-rigid inflatable boats. |
