Amare Group

What Amare Group does

Amare Group, operating through the legal entity Amare Srl, is an Italian designer and manufacturer of premium marine components and electric mobility products for the luxury yacht segment. The company operates four interconnected product divisions: a Glazing and Steel line (hull glazing, the patented Infinity and Eclypse portholes, NG Series portholes, Vision Window Systems, and Custom Projects), a Kinematics line (Vanity and ARYA gangways, swim ladders, Charon tenderlift, terraces and transom systems, and Power Units), the ASW Wireless Automation smart-environment platform with digital switches, monitoring sensors, and the Maestro mobile app, and the AMY electric tender jet range (330e, 395e, 420e models) developed with MITEK electric propulsion.

The company's underlying technology rests on four granted patents, most notably the world's first RINA-certified porthole glued directly to glass (Infinity), the ASW Distributed Intelligence architecture that removes centralized PLC control from onboard automation, and the patented Easy-Wedge gangway and Charon self-balancing tenderlift mechanisms. Eight marine classification certifications (RINA, CE, MCA, BV, LR, ABS, ENAVE, ANS) and a 2022 DAME Award at METS Trade validate the engineering and design credentials. Manufacturing is vertically integrated in Italy, split between the headquarters in Castelfranco Emilia (Modena) housing sales, admin, and engineering, and a production facility in Pozzilli (Isernia).

Amare sells directly to yacht manufacturers (including Azimut, Customline, Ferretti Group, and Fairline) and to yacht owners through a quote-based, no-public-pricing model. Distribution combines direct enterprise sales from headquarters, a global aftermarket network of over 30 service partners across 14+ countries, a network of AMY tender dealers concentrated in Mediterranean marinas, and integration partnerships with NAVIOP, GARMIN, and SIMRAD. The firm was founded in 2012 by a founder-led ownership team, remains privately held with €200,000 in share capital, has reinvested over €1 million in 2022 to fund quality and design, and serves 48+ active customers globally as of 2022.

Direct peers

• Trend Marine: UK-based marine glazing specialist producing portholes, hatches and bonded glass systems for production boatbuilders and superyachts. Direct competitor in the same marine glazing category as Amare's hull glazing and porthole offerings, including in curved-glass and custom-bulkhead installations.
• Rondal: Dutch superyacht supplier of carbon spars, riggings, glazed deck structures, passerelles and integrated deck hardware. Directly comparable high-end component peer for large-yacht hull glazing and custom kinematics, often specified on the same 30m+ motoryacht programs.
• Nemo Industrie: Italian marine glazing and porthole manufacturer supplying premium yacht OEMs across Europe. Directly comparable to Amare's Glazing & Steel product line (Infinity, Eclypse, NG portholes, hull glazing) and competes head-to-head on yacht-builder specifications.
• Opacmare: Italian maker of yacht gangways, tender lifts, side-boarding ladders and transom platforms. Closest direct competitor to Amare's Kinematics division (Vanity, Arya, Charon Tenderlift, swim ladder and terrace lines) for luxury motoryacht OEMs.
• Lewmar: Established UK marine hardware OEM making hatches, portlights, windlasses, anchors and deck hardware. Comparable on yacht glazing/hatch products and on the global OEM/service-partner distribution model that Amare is building out across Europe and the US.
• Besenzoni: Italian yacht equipment manufacturer specializing in hydraulic gangways, passarelle, helm seats and motion furniture. Comparable product portfolio and customer base to Amare's kinematics and custom projects lines, also serving Ferretti, Azimut and similar European shipyards.
• Quick Spa: Italian marine systems supplier of battery chargers, gyro stabilizers, thrusters, lighting and electronics for yachts. Adjacent but increasingly overlapping competitor in the smart-environment / power-management space where Amare's ASW Wireless Automation is positioned.

Others

• Garmin: Global marine electronics major (MFDs, navigation, integration platforms) and a named ASW integration partner. Comparable as the platform/ecosystem layer that Amare's ASW Wireless Automation integrates with, and a potential long-term competitor for shipboard smart-control platforms.

Broad incumbents

• Seldén Mast: Larger, broader marine hardware incumbent (spars, furling systems, deck hardware) with overlapping glazing and custom component capability for sailing yachts and motoryachts. A scaled competitor with broader portfolio than Amare but less specialization in luxury motoryacht glazing/kinematics.
• Harken: Major US/Italian marine hardware manufacturer with broad deck-equipment, winch and systems portfolio serving both sail and power yachts. Overlaps with Amare's kinematics and wireless automation ambitions as a broader, well-funded incumbent that could expand into integrated motion-control systems.
