F/LIST founds F/YACHTING: A milestone in the luxury yacht industry

F/LIST, the renowned Lower Austrian company for high-quality interiors in the aircraft and residence sector, announced the founding of F/YACHTING at the “F/LAB Grand Opening”. The founding of the company marks a significant milestone for the company and the entire yachting industry.

The unveiling took place in front of an exclusive audience of around 100 customers and partners in the in-house futurelab, called F/LAB. “The establishment of F/YACHTING is a significant step for F/LIST and underlines our continuous innovation and commitment to first-class quality,” says Katharina List-Nagl, CEO of F/LIST. Werner Kartner, F/LIST CCO, and Andreas Aigner, F/LIST COO, take over the management of F/YACHTING in addition to their F/LIST management activities.

With F/YACHTING, the goal is not only to redefine the interior of large yachts through the use of groundbreaking new materials and production methods, but also to support owners and crew for life with the 361-degree service.

Andreas Aigner: “Through innovative solutions in furniture construction, we create unique living spaces on the water for our customers. Our new approach, our 361-degree service, stems from this innovative spirit. We dissolve the boundaries of yacht design and focus on a holistic approach in which we are partners at eye level right from the start: for our customers in the owner’s team, for designers in planning, for developers in implementation, for crews in daily management.”

F/YACHTING offers customersinnovative solutions to reconcile the issues of sustainability and the desire for constant change in the yacht segment. The F/LAB is the cradle of innovation for F/LIST and now also F/YACHTING. Here, the companies develop new materials, technologies and mechanisms, always with the aim of making dreams come true in furnishings and overcoming boundaries.

“We are always the right contact for outfitting, interiors and exteriors, regardless of whether the yacht is just an idea in our customers’ heads, is already being worked on in dry dock or is waiting on the water to be fitted out, refitted or refurbished,” explains Werner Kartner.

The announcement also included a high-profile panel discussion entitled “Revolutionizing Markets”. The expert panel, consisting of respected representatives from various industries, shared their insights, experiences and predictions for navigating the ever-changing landscape of global markets.
