Edencraft International is expanding into manufacturing composite plugs for boatbuilders through a partnership with ATL Composites.
The Edencraft group of companies, headquartered in Victoria, Australia, encompasses Edencraft International, Edencraft Marine, and Edencraft Creative which was established in 2022. Each company contributes to the marine and manufacturing sectors.
Edencraft International was founded 35 years’ ago and is known for its fiberglass offshore fishing boats ranging from 6-7.77 metres in length catering for both recreational and commercial anglers.
The company’s largest model to date, the 255 Formula, was launched in 2024 at the Sanctuary Cove International Boat Show.
Edencraft Marine is the manufacturing arm and provides a full-service centre, operating as an authorised Mercury and Mercruiser dealership.
In November 2023, Edencraft ventured into B2B manufacturing with the launch of Edencraft Creative.
The division produces plugs and moulds for various industries including the pool and yacht sectors, through a partnership with ATL Composites using its Technirez and Duratec ranges.
Edencraft Creative has contracts with a selection of clients including Riviera Motor Yachts.
The company was bought by current general manager Josie Maher-Eastman’s parents in 2016 and since then the focus has changed from timber to composites with the company aiming to become the number one in large-format composite plug making.
The company is also looking to the future with new models planned to include centre console and is also looking to grow its export market.
