Crafting Excellence
Specialists in custom yacht construction and advanced composites, drawing on decades of experience in performance yacht builds and the application of advanced composite materials.
Builds Modifications Repairs
From grand prix yachts to defence prototypes, we build to perform, modify to optimise and repair to endure. Our unified team approach tailors every project to its exact specification, refining every detail in pursuit of perfection.
Design & Development
We deliver an integrated design approach that moves seamlessly from creativity to manufacturability. Every concept is developed with real-world production in mind.
Tooling & Moulds
We combine in-house mould fabrication with precision CNC machining to deliver project-specific composite tooling. Wooden moulds handle large surfaces, while complex geometries are produced in high-density board or aluminium machined moulds precision-matched.
Advanced Composite Processing
Our composite processing capability is built on rigorously developed SOPs, structured checkpoint documentation, and tightly controlled environmental conditions. Every component is manufactured under its own SOP, enabling real-time data logging, traceable sign-offs, and complete process transparency from start to finish.
All core materials, including foam cores, honeycomb Nomex and dry fibre reinforcements, are stored in climate-controlled environments. Prepreg materials are held in dedicated freezers to maintain resin stability and guarantee full shelf-life integrity. Lamination and core fit takes place in temperature and humidity-controlled cleanrooms that can are converted into large-format ovens for precise out-of-autoclave curing.
Process integrity is verified using advanced diagnostic tools, including ultrasonic leak detection to validate vacuum bagging, industrial borescopes for detailed honeycomb bond inspection, and high-precision digital vacuum gauges to monitor and record debulk pressure throughout the layup. Every component is subjected to aerospace-grade vacuum drop tests prior to cure or infusion.
We specialise and pride ourselves in out-of-autoclave processing and have a proven track record in producing exceptionally high-quality prepreg laminates with consistent fibre consolidation and extremely low void content. Each stage of production is documented and traceable.
Precise craftsmanship for
enduring performance
Featured product
A lightweight, low-profile carbon fibre grab handle designed to improve safety and movement onboard without compromising aesthetics. Weighing just 80 g, it provides a secure handhold where support is needed most, while adding minimal weight.
Finished in a matte UV-stable lacquer, the handle is protected against long-term sun exposure and maintains a clean, modern carbon appearance. Its sleek design integrates seamlessly into interior and exterior spaces.
Ideal for boarding assistance, safe manoeuvring while underway, and movement around saloon, galley, and head areas, the handle is also suitable for mounting to hatches for opening, closing, and installation assistance.
Installation is adhesive bonded for a fastener-free finish
Technical Specifications
Featured product
A lightweight, high-strength stick-on carbon fibre padeye designed for clean, fastener-free installation in performance marine environments. Ideal where drilling is not desired, it provides a secure attachment point with minimal weight and a low visual profile.
The padeye features a unique concaved underside, engineered to create a controlled and consistent adhesive bond line. Unlike flat-backed padeyes, this cavity allows adhesive to spread evenly under load, improving bond reliability and installation consistency. This design is exclusive to this product and sets it apart from conventional stick-on padeyes.
Fitted with a Dyneema® loop, the padeye delivers excellent strength-to-weight performance and corrosion resistance, making it suitable for a wide range of onboard applications including line management, storage, and load deflection.

Frequently Asked Questions
You can book a consultation by contacting us via email at hello@srstructures.co.uk or using the contact form on our website. In your message, please include a brief description of your project (e.g. scale, industry, timeframe) so we can prepare in advance and suggest suitable times.
We specialise in advanced composite manufacturing, utilising materials such as carbon, aramid and glass fibres, from dry fibres to resin pre impregnated fibres. We also work with structural core such as HD foam core, PVC and honeycomb Nomex – both Aramid and Aluminium. Our processing capabilities include, Out-of-autoclave (OOA) curing, Autoclave curing, closed moulding, open moulding, resin infusion – moulded and large scale, and wet-lay with vacuum.
Out of Autoclave (OOA) technology enables the production of aerospace-grade composite components without relying on high-pressure autoclave environments. Through engineered prepreg systems and controlled vacuum-cure cycles, OOA delivers exceptional strength, low void content, and precise laminate quality. It offers greater scalability and design freedom ideal for large yachts, commercial structures, and performance components where reliability and weight savings are essential.
We primarily serve the performance marine sector and have capabilities in Automotive, Civil and defence — ranging from high-performance boats to civil infrastructure components and defence prototyping. Yes, we are equipped to work on bespoke, small-batch, or prototype orders, in addition to low-medium production runs.
For refits, we begin by assessing existing structure integrity and design requirements with partnered naval architects and composite engineers. We combine engineering with practical boat building together with advanced composite techniques to restore or improve structures and performance. We offer two options for refits. Option 1, undertake complete works at our facility for vessels up to 80ft. Option 2, split between our facility manufacturing components and onsite installation, if the vessel is over 80ft or the project is located overseas.
For repairs, generally we work alongside the yachts original naval architect and engineer, utilising Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) to examine the damaged area or failed structures. A repair schedule is then formulated and issued to SR to carry out the repairs to engineering specifications. If necessary, SR manufacture new structures and install as per original design specification ensuring structural integrity and weight optimisation. Options 1 &2 are also used for repair projects.
For full new builds, we manage the process end-to-end, from tooling and mould manufacture to delivery launch, sea trials and handover.
