August Race™ Appoints Exalto Emirates as Exclusive UAE Distributor for Oceans Assured™
August Race™ has announced that Exalto Emirates has been appointed as the exclusive distributor for the Oceans Assured™ range across the United Arab Emirates.
Founded in 1994 and headquartered in Sharjah, Exalto Emirates has grown to become one of the leading marine equipment and supplies distributors in the Middle East. The company represents more than 129 international marine brands and supports customers across the leisure marine, commercial marine, offshore energy and government sectors.
With over 30 years of experience, a team of more than 100 marine industry professionals, and operations spanning the UAE, GCC, Africa and the wider Middle East region, Exalto Emirates has established a strong reputation for technical expertise, engineering support and customer service.
The partnership will see Exalto Emirates introduce the August Race™ Oceans Assured™ range to the UAE market. The Oceans Assured™ initiative focuses on operational maintenance and vessel care products developed in line with the requirements of MARPOL Annex V, ensuring that formulations are Non-Harmful to the Marine Environment (Non-HME).
Peter Wallbank, Group Technical Director at August Race™, commented:
“We are extremely pleased to be working with Jan Willem Paul and the entire Exalto Emirates team. Their experience, technical knowledge and strong regional presence make them an ideal partner to support the introduction of Oceans Assured™ across the UAE and the wider Middle East region.”
The philosophy of Exalto Emirates - supporting customers to build, service and operate better boats - aligns closely with the objectives of the Oceans Assured™ initiative, which aims to promote responsible operational practices and greater awareness of MARPOL Annex V within the global leisure marine sector.
As awareness of international environmental legislation continues to grow across the marine industry, partnerships with knowledgeable regional distributors will play an important role in helping marinas, boatyards and vessel operators adopt more sustainable operational maintenance practices.
