GMT Americas Teak Decks

Time is on your Side

GMT Americas' techniques enhance the quality of your teak deck in every way. They allow us to transfer the manufacturing process to a controlled environment. This process enables us to work more efficiently, significantly reducing the overall job time over that of conventional teak decking procedures. As a result, not only does the production cost decrease, but you can enjoy the pleasures of your investment that much sooner.

Knock on Wood

GMT Americas only uses the best quality teak available. Our special relationship with wood suppliers in Burma provides us the opportunity to take our personal pick of what is available. As a major customer, we negotiate the best prices and shortest delivery times, both of which are then passed on to our customers.

Live Longer

A better use of raw materials - this is exactly what our working method achieves. Doing this, we enable your decking to live longer, often for the entire life of your yacht.

State-of-the-Art

GMTA still adheres to the old-world quality workmanship for which our European affiliate is famous for, we have added some new-world American technology to the production process in our state-of-the-art production facility. Due to these advances, GMTA can save an owner/captain/shipyard time, hassle, and money. In addition, if there is a particular design or image that is desired in the teak deck (e.g., a sunburst or ellipse), we will more than likely be able to accommodate your wishes.

On-site Templates

Much emphasis is put on preparatory work. The more we learn about your vessel, the more efficiently we can work and the higher the quality. Therefore, our team of highly skilled professionals measure your yacht in full detail. Based on these figures, we are able to construct a very accurate template of your yacht in one of our factories. There, we build your deck in prefabricated panels. These panels are then transported to the Shipyard of your choice, ready for installation.

Be Prepared

Like everything in life, good preparation is a key to success. Surface preparation is a key aspect of our work, as it has a direct effect on the end result. Whether it is a steel, aluminum, or fiberglass deck, our technicians will fair and level the surface to the maximum prior to installation, thereby providing a perfect surface to receive the new teak decking.

Finished in Time

GMT Americas does a majority of the deck construction at our own facility. During that period, as we are not governed by someone else's timetable, we can finish our work on time. Bearing in mind the ever-tightening schedules of most modern yachts, this is a major advantage for every Shipyard and every yacht Owner.

Experience and Craftsmanship

GMT Americas is owned and managed by people who have been in the marine industry for over forty years. Additionally, highly skilled teams of specialized carpenters install our teak decks all around the world.

Worldwide Guarantee

Due to our unique affiliation with GMT in Europe, GMT Americas is able to offer unsurpassed worldwide customer and warranty service. Consequently, regardless of your yacht's location, more than likely we'll have crews nearby for whatever work you require.
