Karver KFEC1.5 EcoConcept Furler: Sustainable Engineering for Reliable Sail Handling
The Karver KFEC1.5 EcoConcept Furler builds on the proven design of the Karver KF1.5 Standard Version, integrating sustainable materials into key components to reduce environmental impact while maintaining the same level of performance and reliability.
A key innovation in the EcoConcept version is the replacement of carbon fibre in the continuous line wheel with bio-based linen plastics, a renewable material offering durability and strength without relying on traditional carbon. This change highlights Karver’s commitment to incorporating eco-friendly materials in their products.
The anodised aluminium jaw used in the standard version has also been replaced with a moulded stainless steel jaw, designed to use fewer raw materials while significantly extending the product’s lifespan. This ensures a durable, long-lasting solution for modern sailors, with a reduced environmental footprint.
The KFEC1.5 retains all the essential features of the KF V3 range, including the reinforced ABS casing with K-Krok impact resistance technology, the 2-in-1 K-Snap snap shackle for versatile operation, and a remote locking mechanism for the drum, allowing for precise and reliable sail handling. The swivel, also protected by K-Krok, ensures durability in varied sailing conditions.
The Karver KFEC1.5 EcoConcept Furler is a sustainable and practical choice for environmentally conscious sailors. By incorporating bio-based linen plastics and innovative material substitutions, this furler offers a balance of performance, durability, and eco-friendly design for a more sustainable future in sailing.
