Besenzoni confirms its presence at METSTRADE Amsterdam with two stands: Italian Pavilion 12.212 and Super Yacht Pavilion 10.503. Taking centre stage will be the brand's iconic gangways, symbols of quality and functionality.

Great anticipation surrounds the presentation of the new Manta Comfort chair, a finalist for the prestigious DAME Award in the "Comfort & Entertainment Afloat" category.

The company, led by Giorgio Besenzoni, will once again participate in METSTRADE Amsterdam, Europe's largest event dedicated to the marine industry, scheduled for 19-21 November 2024. Besenzoni's presence will be divided across two locations: the stand at Italian Pavilion 12.212, showcasing iconic products, and an exclusive space at Super Yacht Pavilion 10.503, reserved for high-end innovations and cutting-edge technologies.

At the Italian Pavilion stand, Besenzoni will display its wide range of gangways, a signature product known for elegance, advanced technology, and its essential role in facilitating access on board. On show will be models that demonstrate Besenzoni's craftsmanship in this field: from electric and hydraulic gangways to multifunctional models that combine the practicality of a gangway with the versatility of a ladder.

The New Manta Comfort Chair, a DAME Award Finalist

Besenzoni is proud to present one of the most eagerly awaited additions to its range at METSTRADE 2024: the Manta Comfort chair, a finalist for the prestigious DAME Award in the "Comfort & Entertainment Afloat" category. This international accolade, promoted by METSTRADE, annually recognises excellence in marine product design and innovation, and Manta Comfort's nomination highlights the company's commitment to creating forward-thinking solutions.

The Manta Comfort, part of the Manta collection that includes the Class, Smart, Mini, and Sport versions, is designed to offer a bespoke experience with sophisticated design and advanced features for maximum comfort. Key technical features include a high, enveloping backrest, padded and upholstered in premium leather, equipped with automatic adjustments for tilt and vertical and horizontal movement, all controllable through an intuitive touch system. The chair's profile is enhanced with perimeter LED lights that accentuate its modern lines and add an elegant touch even in low-light conditions. Additionally, wireless and USB charging options for mobile devices are available, highlighting the product's technological edge.

The chair's support structure, equipped with an electric movement system, is designed to ensure maximum stability and adaptability on board yachts and superyachts, providing a design solution that does not compromise functionality.

Giorgio Besenzoni, the company's CEO, commented: "We are truly delighted to be among the finalists for this prestigious international award. This recognition underscores the commitment and passion we bring to our work every day to offer an on-board experience that combines style and comfort. For us, it is crucial to meet customer expectations, offering quality materials and advanced technological solutions that truly make a difference."
