Composite Technology for a New Era.
KING MARINE - INNOVATION
ADVANCED COMPOSITE APPLICATIONS
Twenty years of engineering excellence on the world's most demanding racing yachts has generated a rare knowledge base. King Marine now applies that expertise to agriculture, marine industry, sustainable mobility, aerospace, science and marine defense.

APPLYING 20 YEARS OF RACING COMPOSITE R&D TO NEW INDUSTRIES
THE KNOWLEDGE TRANSFER
Racing technology built for
tomorrow's challenges.
Carbon fiber is not a marine material. It is a structural philosophy — one that King Marine has perfected over two decades of building boats that compete at the extreme limits of speed, weight and load.
​
King Marine's Innovation division was born from an insight: the same technical capability that builds a 26m race-winning IRC 85 hull can produce aerospace-grade structural components, agricultural equipment that outlasts steel, hydrogen containment systems for mobility, or radiation detection enclosures for scientific instruments.
​
We are not diversifying. We are applying.

6
Active R&D lines across six domains: Marine Industry (high-performance racing composites), Agriculture (King Agro), Sustainable Mobility (hydrogen tank systems), Marine Defense (radio-frequency transparent structuress), Science (radiation instrumentation), and Aerospace (precision composite structures).
Years of pre-preg carbon fibre expertise, autoclave processing and precision composite manufacturing — now transferred to industries that have never had access to this level of engineering.

King Marine × Prosix:
Joint R&D & Composite Development
King Marine has established a strategic alliance with Prosix to accelerate the development of advanced carbon fibre applications across multiple industrial sectors. Joint programmes span structural research, testing protocols, material sourcing and prototype manufacturing.
​
Shared access to King Marine's autoclave and precision machining infrastructure enables development cycles that would be impossible independently.
