a Passion for sailing

The beginning of the story...

Since I was a child I have been exposed to the sea and the world of sailing. After school I often played in my father's company among those brightly colored pieces of fabric that would become sails for gigantic boats. As a boy, my passion for another type of sea led me to a degree in Marine Biology and teaching at school, but the world of sailing has always been by my side.

It is perhaps the union of the passion for sailing and the love for nature and the environment that in 2016 gave me the idea of trying to create products with waste materials from sail manufacturing. The idea of creating products with recycled material seemed to me to be an excellent solution to minimize the production of manufacturing waste. 

Thinking that today those recycled sails have become everyday objects, which accompany the life of sea lovers like me, and which contribute to a lower impact on the environment, gives me great satisfaction.

 With the same attention and care we have been putting in making sails since more than 40 years, we decided to create a new line of innovative and original products. Until today we have always succeeded in makinga product which is characterized by high quality, which is long-lasting and at the same time beautiful. This is our mission for this new line of Velman Sails products.

Every woven and fabrics used are handmade and produced in our company from the very beginning. They are characterized by an orientated fiber which can be of different kinds (carbon, kevlar and polyester) and which can be closed by a mylar film and/or taffetta in dacron of high tenacity and in different colors.

Our lamination production lets us produce extraordinary high resistant woven, which will not change shape in time.

The orientation of the fiber and the design which follows is always different: in this way you will never find a sample which is equal to the other ones. The product you choose will be only yours, original and unique!
