MOOVING MARINE Mooving Marine was established in 2001. Originally operating in the areas of sign-making and vehicle wrapping. They later expanded into the world of yachts and superyachts, providing self-adhesive technologies. They provide the marine industry with vinyl yacht-wraps, for both exteriors and interiors, along with other protection systems that keep vessels looking pristine. They’ve accumulated great skill and knowledge associated with all aspects of boats from working around them for many years. Their passion for all things nautical has driven their expansion, and investment and training has made them a company to rely on to provide a full range of marine services.

the way it’s made. If there’s a concern we can check before we order material, but we generally find the reputable brands do a far better job of managing colour profiles, with no noticeable difference in production runs.”
One company taking a more pragmatic approach than most is LuxWrap, whose management acknowledge that wrapping can both divide and unify opinion at the same time.
Rather than viewing the whole situation as some form of wrapping versus painting contest, LuxWrap’s common sense point of view, is that wrapping should be seen not as the enemy of painting, but more a way of keeping new paint fresh on a permanent basis, potentially by wrapping every season, to ensure the new paint stays that way, and at the same time offering easily reversible style changes.
LuxWrap’s management say that, “With paint you pay a capital amount which can almost be considered an investment in the value of your yacht, yet it depreciates every year and needs to be redone every 8-10 years.
“It makes far greater sense to wrap as soon as new paint is out of warranty. Polishing new paint is labour intensive, and each time it’s polished it wears away the paint. So if you regularly wrap it instead - for a ‘few’ years
of service each time - your paint would be like new even after 10 years or so, saving you the cost of repainting and reducing downtime over the same 10 year period.”
Based in The Netherlands, Ruben Anders’ Yacht Colors company will wrap everything from jet-skis to superyachts and his experience with films and adhesives goes back 42 years! Did you know wrapping had been around for that long? So why did it take this long to enter the yachting world?
YACHT COLORS Since 1978 Yacht Colors have been involved in the processing of self-adhesive film within the automotive and yacht industry. They concentrate on improving their knowledge, technology and quality. This allows them to do jobs that others cannot do. But they also know very well where the limits are. Yacht Colors is internationally active in the construction and re-fit of superyachts. Good work is tailor-made. The wishes and expectations of the customer always determine the approach.
