Traditionally, all ships' sterntubes have been designed and constructed in a similar way. Now we present a new technological breakthrough - the patented Simplex FlexiTube. The FlexiTube is a turnkey solution involving less preparation for the designer, the shipyard and the shipbuilder. It facilitates rapid and exact installation under the supervision of our skilled personnel as well as easier maintenance and lower maintenance costs when the ship is in operation. The Simplex FlexiTube is suitable for all types and sizes of vessels. Please contact us for further information about this innovation design.
