Recognized for its expertise in hydraulic technologies, Hydro Armor designs, develops, produces and tests complex hydraulic systems and solutions. Our design office, testing facilities and factory guarantee our customers tailor-made products that are at the cutting edge of innovation, and particularly reliable and durable.

In addition to its great flexibility of use, hydraulic propulsion offers excellent maneuverability, hydrodynamic efficiency and ease of maintenance. From an environmental standpoint, the adoption of hydraulic solutions means greater energy efficiency and greater durability.

Hydro Armor has recently developed a hybrid propulsion solution (hydraulic and electric) which contributes to the preservation of marine ecosystems by significantly reducing pollutant emissions, with two boats equipped to date. This type of innovation is proof that Hydro-Armor is at the forefront of the transition to more sustainable, environmentally-friendly maritime practices.

The company is a unique player in a vast and fast-growing market, encompassing river transport of goods and people, aquaculture, shellfish farming and, for example, support vessels for offshore wind farms.

Hydro Armor has won the loyalty of market players with its reliable, robust products, which can be adapted to difficult sailing conditions, even at low tide.
