Revolutionary ideas
Lomac began with the insight to use special fabric gluing and manufacturing techniques to optimise the production of inflatable boats.
The Lo Manto brothers initially sold inflatable boats produced by other brands, but soon fell in love with the boating industry and began to build their own models.
In the early 1980s, Lomac was the first European shipyard to introduce the industry’s most revolutionary idea: replacing the simple fabric and slat floor with a fibreglass hull.
The idea proved such a captivating one that it was followed and imitated by shipyards across Europe. This marked the start of a new design for what is regarded today as the safest water craft on the market.
