In an agreement between Seaward Kayak Director Steve Ree and Seaward Australia's Ross Boardman, Tyson Desmarais ( Seaward Mfg Foreman) flew to Australia to assist in the set up and initial assembly of the first shipment , highlighting the need for quality control and techniques used in manufacture that has set the Seaward Kayak Range aside from other brands.
"It seemed an obvious choice to Janet and Myself to partner with Seaward Kayaks in Canada", (Ross Boardman) " as they are the industry leader in terms of design and technology, and it was in fact this technology and the advancements that Steve Ree and the Seaward Team have made in thermoform technology that attracted us to the range".
There are a number of reasons why we have undertaken the assembly and completion in Jervis Bay as the Carbon emmissions from shipping have been reduced by almost 80% as we have been able to ship larger qtys combined with the Recyclable Nature of the new ABS Substrate, we have reduced our impact on our environment significantly.
Complete assembly ,testing and distribution is now undertaken in our Factory in Huskisson using new state of the art pneumatic applicators and proprietary adhesives that become part of the ABS Substrate thereby bonding the parts as one. All accessories are genuine Seaward and Kayak Sport Parts essentially providing a Canadian Designed work of art with an unparalleled finish and quality here in Jervis Bay.
