Shaping the future of inland shipping

We’re excited to announce our collaboration with Roboat in a pioneering initiative selected as one of the Dutch Maritime Innovation Projects by the Ministry of Economic Affairs.

The project focuses on developing and testing a smart test platform for autonomous inland shipping.

By bringing together intelligent automation by Roboat, innovative shipbuilding by Alumax Boats and advanced maritime electrical systems by Royal Van der Leun we aim to make water transport safer, smarter and more sustainable.

We're looking forward to shaping the future of inland shipping together.

More updates to follow as this exciting journey unfolds.
