In a welcome move for local boatbuilders, marine suppliers EvadeX SA and Permadeck SA have teamed up to streamline marine decking supply and technical support across South Africa.
The partnership brings together EvadeX SA’s national distribution network with Permadeck SA’s well-established roots in the Western Cape. For local yards, the consolidated setup means easier access to a full suite of top-tier decking options—including EvadeX EVA, Permateek, Esthec, Evercor, and Evo Decking—all under one roof.
Permadeck SA will keep its familiar brand identity and local team in Cape Town, now backed by EvadeX’s broader supply chain muscle and national footprint.
“By bringing our ranges together, we’re now able to offer the widest range of marine decking materials in the industry, all best-in-class, backed by one combined team,” says EvadeX SA’s Mark McMullin. “This is about giving builders more choice and more confidence in every material they specify.”
For South African boatbuilders facing tight production schedules and demanding international clients, having a single, reliable point of contact for multiple decking materials is a huge plus. By cutting procurement headaches, improving local stock availability, and speeding up turnaround times, stronger local supply partnerships like this one play a subtle but crucial role in keeping SA yards globally competitive.
