Entry for INNOVATION AWARD – Designkayaks, Colored rubber hatches and customization

With social media the importance of visual appearance has come to a new level and the wish to customize and make things just the way you want it, is growing in every industry.

Colored rubber hatches

To address this need we have as the very first manufacturer of rotomolded kayaks developed a range of colored rubber hatches. This makes our kayaks stand out and offer a new and contemporary look. In addition to this we have brought in new and trending colors on both hull, lines and bungees.

Make it your own

But most importantly! We have put  the customer in the designer’s position.

Common to all of our kayak models are that they can be color configured based on hull colors, 5 hatch, line and bungee colors. In addition to the color design, we offer the possibility of choosing model specific add-ons such as extra day box, compass, rescue system, lock brace or rudder.

The configuration happens in an easy and intuitive online interface on our website. Making it easy for our users to play around with the combination that best suits their needs – and makes them look great on water.

In 4800 ways

So if you are out to buy a super nice personalized and professional product we offer no less than 4800 ways for you to design your own dream kayak. And that is just based on our three kayak models!.
