Sunreef Yachts Eco

According to a study unveiled by Fountaine Pajot, the usage phase of a multihull for 20 years accounts for 80% of its C0₂ emissions. The remaining 20% can be attributed to the construction of the yacht - which is undoubtedly more important, given that the average life expectancy of a yacht is 40 years. This is where flax fiber comes into its own: it can be combined with a biosourced or recyclable resin to create strong, reliable natural composites. This fiber even has a negative CO₂ footprint due to the absorption of CO₂ during the plant’s growth. What’s more, these natural composites can be recycled. This process involves extracting the resin and the fiber, giving both materials a new purpose. For the time being, Sunreef is integrating this new material into its non-structural elements - interior and exterior. Finally, flax cloth can be woven in countless patterns and dyed in an infinite variety of colors.
