We are situated in the outskirts of Aalesund, on the north-western part of Norway. An area known for having one of the world’s most innovative environments within the maritime industry. Our coastal shoreline is one of the harshest in the northern hemisphere, and it is here that Polyform products are produced and distributed to all parts of the globe.

Through a well-established net of distributors, the products are sold all over the world under the trademark POLYFORM®.

From the rough North Atlantic waters to the sunny tropics, surface to subsea, our products are made to withstand the toughest conditions and strains. We offer one of the largest selections of buoys and fenders available for a wide range of applications. Most of our products can be customized, and we can even offer to develop new products in cooperation with our customers and produce on assignments.
