Company Overview
Zyvex Marine designs and builds the most advanced maritime platforms in the world. Zyvex is the premier provider of carbon nanotube-enhanced (CNTe) vessels and specializes in manned and unmanned variants for an array of operating conditions using the most advanced materials science available.
Headquartered near Seattle, Zyvex Marine is located close to ports along the Puget Sound and West Coast. With tested performance up to Sea State 6, Zyvex vessels are built to withstand the toughest operating conditions around the world.
Zyvex Marine formally became a division of Zyvex Technologies in November 2011 and has a storied history dating back to 2009. In early 2009, the world’s first commercialized carbon nanotube enhanced (CNTe) carbon fiber material, Arovex, enabled the design of a prototype vessel called the 540SE. Setting new standards for fuel efficiency and performance, the lightweight 540SE hull offered a 75% reduction in fuel consumption costs, translating to increased range and lower operating costs.
In 2010, Zyvex Marine manufactured its first prototype craft, the Piranha, taking it from the drawing board and into the water in under one year. Setting new standards in range, speed, sea keeping and payload, the Piranha is a generational leap beyond boats built out of traditional materials like fiberglass or aluminum.
In 2011 Zyvex Marine shipped the first production nano-composite vessel, a lightweight 54' boat. The vessel set new standards for a production vessel in the areas of range, speed, sea keeping and payload, fulfilling the promises made by the original Piranha prototype.
Zyvex Marine is developing new maritime platforms based on the Piranha’s success and customer demand as well as fulfilling customer orders through 2012.
