Why grand?
A Proven Track Record of Success
Over the past 15 years we have manufactured and developed a highly successful product range. The current catalogue includes craft for recreational as well as professional users including RIBs, foldable boats and canoes together with a comprehensive range of accessories. Our company is now recognized as one of the market leaders in the field of Inflatable Boats.
Safety is Our Primary Consideration
Our primary consideration is to provide a safe environment for Our Customers.
The safety aspects of every new model are therefore thoroughly reviewed at the start of the design process.
Regardless of which model you choose; be it our baby E210 or perhaps an S330L tender for your yacht or the fabulous G850 Day Cruiser — you will always feel safe in a GRAND Inflatable Boat.
Innovations are the Hallmark of Our Success
The ability to continually innovate and refine our production processes is one of the key ingredients in GRAND’s success. By utilizing state of the art engineering and design processes combined with an extensive research and development program we have not only raised the bar in terms of quality but have also been able to provide some of the finest contemporary naval architecture available!
Incomparable pleasure and comfort
In choosing any GRAND model you will not only get a high quality boat, but also the invaluable pleasure of spending time with your family and friends in natural surroundings; as well as appreciating the comfort and outstanding handling characteristics of your GRAND Inflatable Boat.
A wide range of boats
Our range now stands at over 50 models, which together with a comprehensive list of options and accessories means you can select and equip your boat to meet your precise personal requirements. In addition, we offer a wide range of color schemes for the tubes, GRP and upholstery providing you with the opportunity to create something truly unique.
A Totally European Product
Every GRAND boat is built in Europe without compromise in terms of workmanship, materials, engineering and quality. By combining aerodynamic principles with advanced design and manufacturing concepts we provide our customers with boats in which every component is quality assured and traceable to its source. That’s a high standard to maintain but we wouldn’t have it any other way!
International Distribution and Dealer Network
A fast and reliable distribution network is an essential part of any successful multinational business because it enables customers to get products and services when they need them. GRAND’s worldwide network of Authorized Distributors and Dealers provides our customers not only with great boats and accessories but also first class sales and service backup.
3d – configurator
Our new 3d-configurator program is an application that allows to customize our products in an interactive and instantaneous way. So, it would be possible soon to customize and visually configure any boat on-line before you go anywhere near the showroom!
ISO9001 Certificate
As part of our focus on continually improving our products and services we are delighted to announce that we have recently achieved ISO 9001:2015 status. ISO 9001 is the international standard for quality management systems and is recognized in over 170 countries. The standard is based on a number of quality management principles including a strong customer focus, the motivation and engagement of top management, the process approach, and continual improvement. Using ISO 9001 helps us ensure that customers consistently receive quality products and services, which in turn brings many shared business benefits.
Model Range – Continual Improvement
There was nothing ever made that could not be done a little better and this is why we regularly review and update our model range in order to reflect the latest trends in design and safety. We are not a Company that rests on it’s laurels and our policy of Continual Improvement has resulted in many of our models becoming “classics” of their type.
Style and Practicality
We believe that in order to achieve an overall success with the design brief it is also important to combine style with practicality. Our designers pay particular attention to the ergonomics as well as the elegance of their designs, the results of which we hope our customers will really appreciate!
High Quality and Fair Prices
“Quality” is a term often used to describe a product or service but what does it really mean? Our definition of “Quality” is that the product meets not only our Customers requirements but also those set out in international standards such as International Standards ISO/FDIS-6185, ISO 12217 and the European Union Directive 2013/53/EU. Our internal quality management procedures are amongst the highest in the industry so the challenge has been to achieve this at a cost that ensures good value for money. Based on the feedback we receive from our customers we seem to be doing this rather well!
Created by the Hands of Men
Each GRAND is made by hand, one at a time. Behind every model is tough, durable and hand-crafted manufacturing process that stands up to the toughest environment mother nature throws on our way. Outmost skilled manufacturing specialists and a top-notch, quality control system are combined to provide the best guarantees and highest level of quality. We leave our product in the hands of real professionals. We would have it no other way!
Best materials supplied from the best suppliers is the only way to ensure the greatest quality. All parts and systems are built from reliable and credible brands. For instance, GRAND’s inflatables are coated from five layers of 1100Dtes Polyester fabric and 1680 Dtex, which is reinforced with MIRASOL and HEYTEX fabrics to ensure outstanding durability and abrasion resistance.
Where HYPALON tubes are specified we use ORCA® engineered fabric which provides the quality, strength and durability necessary to ensure customers receive the best performing products available. These fabrics combined with our new HTL adhesive ensures our products possess a high level of structural integrity and the ability to withstand temperatures of up to 90 Deg. C!
Technical Perfection and Unique Designs!
Every GRAND model incorporates a unique combination of innovative techniques, patented designs plus many years of experience and expertise. By utilizing the latest CAD/CAM technology with the most advanced software, every GRAND is perfected to the smallest detail to ensure the utmost quality. Once the prototype model has been constructed, it is subjected to an extensive range of sea trials in the toughest conditions before it sees a showroom floor! After every production stage each boat passes a strict quality control test against a challenging set of parameters and all models are required to pass CE certification before series production begins.
Inflatable Tubes with Profiled Fiberglass Step Ends
The majority of our RIBs include, as standard equipment or as an option, a feature developed by GRAND – inflatable tubes with Profiled Fiberglass Step Ends.
The advantages include:
- They are a particularly useful feature when swimming, boarding or docking
- They are safe and comfortable to stand or sit on when the boat is at rest.
- They work as a passive trim-tab, pushing the bow down when under way.
Once you have enjoyed the advantages of our Step Ends you won’t want to be without them!
