Fiberfoam Austria is taken over by the Swiss company Scheurer Bootswerft AG and relocates the Austrian company's site to Switzerland from 1 August 2024.
Fiberfoam Austria was founded over 30 years ago and specialises in the development and production of carbon masts and composite sail battens. With this merger, Scheurer Bootswerft is expanding its competences in the composite sector and is clearly in favour of production in Switzerland.
"We are very happy to have found a strong partner in Scheurer Bootswerft AG, which has deep expertise in the composite sector and has been long established in the yachting scene", Barbara and Scott Anderson, the owners of Fiberfoam Austria share.
"We are very much looking forward to the challenge of integrating Fiberfoam”, says Aron Steinmann, Managing Director of Scheurer Bootswerft AG. “With a lot of passion for sailing and Swiss precision, we will manufacture the existing products for you in the usual high quality."
