OUR PHILOSOPHY

Sustainability is a value strongly pursued by Itacatamarans, one of the first companies in the sector to include it as a founding part of its operating principles, which finds its maximum expression in the innovative solutions adopted for the creation of its catamarans. In fact the first ITAs were equipped with standard electrical engines, recyclable sails and recycled teak to name a few elements.

THE BASIS

PRODUCT.
WE ATTENTIVELY SELECT MATERIALS, EQUIPEMENT AND PARTNERS.

We select materials and equipment carefully and establish as many collaborations as possible with km0 partners who share our same vision. From innovative propulsion to recyclable performance sails, to bio resins or with recovery percentages, 100% recycled synthetic teak, each element is selected to ensure quality, durability and minimal environmental impact.

PRODUCTION.
MATERIAL SELECTION ANS REUSE TO REDUCE WASTE

Sustainability is at the heart of our production process, which is based on a careful and responsible approach. We select only the best materials, strictly controlling the weights to minimize waste. We make sure nothing goes to waste, recycle, reuse and optimize resources, whether small or large. Our boatyard’s electricity supply also comes from renewable sources.

ENVIRONMENTAL CONFORMITY.
WE RESPECT TO ALL LAWS AND REGULATIONS.

We look to the future with seriousness and attention, planning for the calculation of our CO2 footprint in the future, in order to monitor and further reduce our impact. Environmental compliance is an essential part of our business ethic for the sake of present and future generations.

GIVING BACK.
SUPPORTING THE SEAS AND OCEANS WE SAIL.

Having witnessed first-hand when sailing how much our seas suffer due to man’s impact, we decided when the shipyard was founded that for every catamaran produced we would make a contribution to an Ocean protection related project. With our “Giving Back” initiative, we donate to projects and foundations that are dedicated to protecting the marine environment. We support organizations like The Ocean Clean Up, Race for Water, Ocean Sole and The Med, because we firmly believe that it is our duty to give back.

THE 4 PILARS OF SOSTAINABILITY
FOR A SEA WHERE SAILING IS BEAUTIFUL

REDUCTION.
TO MINIMIZE OUR ENVIRONMENTAL FOOTPRINT

We manage and optimize the use of materials and resources, making processes and every production phase continuously efficient. Every decision is guided by one goal: to limit waste.

REUSE.
TO GIVE A NEW LIFE TO MATERIALS

We add value to every resource through its reuse, transforming materials and components into new opportunities. Likewise, we are committed to extending their life cycle.

RECYCLE.
TO FEED THE SUSTAINABILITY CIRCLE.

We believe in a circular production cycle. As such, the recycling of paper and plastic is a daily practice. In addition, everything that can be recycled is fed back into the production process to create innovative, sustainable and useful products, without ever sacrificing quality.

RETRIEVAL.
TO TRANSFORM WASTE INTO RESOURCES.

When it is not possible to reduce, reuse or recycle materials, we recover energy from it through our local comunity. This approach ensures that nothing is wasted and that every waste becomes a new, valuable resource.

The sea is our home:
we will never stop taking care of it.
