Company portrait
MADE IN HOLLAND
Since 2006 lots of organizations are using Tideman Boats to improve their naval, offshore or military performances. Bruno Tideman started the company when he found and built the perfect fast workboat for rough environments: the indestructible Tideman RBB, Rigid Buoyancy Boat. With a lifetime, much longer than conventional workboats. And with a very low carbon footprint and 100% recyclable. These polyethylene boats are unsinkable, and you get 10 years warranty on the 15mm thick hull.
Now Tideman Boats is one of the world’s leading HDPE workboat building companies.
Not only designed, our boats are also built in Holland. Come and visit our head office in Amsterdam to see all models or go for a test ride. You can also take a tour around our factory in Opmeer or workshop in Middenmeer, where 25 skilled craftsmen work on the custom-made models.
HOW WE WORK
Why we only work with HDPE? Because it’s light and eco-friendly (100% recyclable). Because it’s zero-maintenance. But mainly, because it’s indestructible.
Why custom-made? Because every user has its own demands. Therefore, at Tideman Boats you can choose the size, the propulsion and the options you need.
Why we only produce one model? Because that’s the model we know is best. Compared to a RIB or RHIB boat our RBB model has 50% more deck space and never has to deal with vulnerable tubes.
