Our story, your trust: Insights into Our World

Our company history

In 2022, Ribo Repair GmbH was launched with the aim of quickly becoming a major new player in the repair of all types of inflatable boats and the maintenance of lifejackets and survival suits. From its foundation to the end of 2023, we have achieved impressive milestones that are worth looking back on.

A key aspect of our success lies in the international orientation of our company. Over the past two years, we have visited no fewer than 11 different countries in Europe and North America. This has enabled us not only to be present at a regional level, but also to develop a global view of our customers' requirements and needs.

Our core expertise lies in the repair of rigid hull inflatable boats and air-carrying objects in general. With extensive experience, we serve customers from various sectors, such as commercial shipping, public authorities and even amusement parks.

Another area of expertise is the maintenance of life jackets and survival suits. In total, we have already serviced a four-digit number of these vital items of equipment, which not only contributes to the safety of our customers, but also underlines our expertise in this area.

The continuously increasing volume of orders from new and existing customers is a clear sign of confidence in the quality of our services. Every successfully completed order is not only a business opportunity for us, but also an opportunity to further consolidate the trust placed in us and customer satisfaction.

We are proud to have successfully completed several certification processes, including class certification as a Service Supplier from RINA and Lloyd's Register, as well as ISO9001:2015 certification from RINA. These certifications serve as a clear testimony to the quality of our services and are an expression of the high standards we set for ourselves.

As a company, we are proud of our achievements over the last two years. We see these successes not only as milestones, but also as an incentive to continuously improve our service and open up new horizons. We would like to thank our customers and partners for their support and look forward to continuing our success together in the future.
