A message from Anders Wilhelmsen, Chairman and Owner of Flexiteek International, due to 20 years of Flexiteek. <\/strong><\/p>\n

“Dear client,<\/em><\/p>\n

I come from a family with a long and proud history as seafarers. To start boating and sailing when I was six years old, was therefore only natural to me. I have been a passionate \u201cboat bum\u201d ever since, and power boats and sailing are still important aspects of my life.<\/em><\/p>\n

When the opportunity arose that I could engage in the newly developed Flexiteek material in the year 2000, it was therefore an engagement that appealed both my mind and to my heart. Over the past 20 years, we have worked hard to expand, develop new products and add new markets and distributors to our network. With the addition of Wilks<\/a>, Flexiteek is now clearly the market leader in synthetic teak decking and marine fendering.<\/em><\/p>\n

Looking forward, I see great opportunities to further develop Flexiteek. We have market leading products; a fantastic network of devoted and passionate distributors and we are winning market share every year. Also, I see that society\u2019s strong focus on ESG over the last years has further increased the demand for our products and services.<\/em><\/p>\n

I believe the next 20 years will be as exciting as the previous 20 years, and wanted to say a big \u201cThank You\u201d to all our dear customers.<\/em><\/p>\n

All the best,<\/em><\/p>\n

Anders”<\/em><\/p>\n

Anders Wilhelmsen<\/p>\n

Chairman and Owner of Flexiteek International<\/p>\n
