Facnor
Facnor is the worldwide leader in furling systems. We supply many shipyards as well as ocean sailors, which help with the research and upgrade of the product range. Facnor has developed a network of 170 resellers covering 35 countries.
« Innovation » is our key word, whether it relates to racing or cruising: Facnor has become the European leader in its market area thanks to an approach based on research and its commitment to the development of patents. Its efforts paid off several times as Facnor won: the 1991 Innovation INPI (French National Industrial Property Institute) national trophy, the 1998 Grand Pavois Innovation prize, various nominations at the Metstrade (trade show), Pittman Award in 2011, (American magazine: “Sail Magazine”) and finally the 2012 Segeln award (German magazine).
