Built to go further
Structural cores for next-generation electric boats.
As the marine industry accelerates its transition to electrification, weight becomes increasingly critical. Every kilo saved for electric boats, whether private leisure craft or commercial passenger vessels, can extend range, improve efficiency, and reduce environmental impact.
Diab’s structural core materials are specifically engineered to meet the needs of electric boat design. Reducing weight without compromising stiffness or strength helps optimize hulls, decks, bulkheads, interiors, superstructures, and other key components, resulting in vessels that go further on every charge.
Our lightweight sandwich cores offer excellent fatigue resistance, low resin uptake, and include special grades compatible with prepreg processes. Closed-cell structures significantly resist water absorption while delivering good impact resistance, damage tolerance, and high repairability, which are key to long-term performance in marine environments.
Highly formable and easy to machine, our materials enable flexible and efficient construction. Combined with a wide range of finish options and our advanced kitting solutions, they help streamline manufacturing, improve accuracy, minimize material waste, maximize weight savings, and reduce the carbon footprint.
In the end, an electric boat built with Diab solutions is not only efficient and reliable, but it’s also safer, easier to maintain, and more sustainable.
