WHO WE ARE

FLEXBOAT Construções Náuticas LTDA. was founded in 1990 by Jaime José Alves Filho, an entrepreneur from Rio de Janeiro. He decided to settle in São Paulo after traveling to Italy and France searching for the most advanced technology and materials to start building the best inflatable boats in Brazil.

In the years since, FLEXBOAT has created a brand name which is a benchmark of quality, and synonymous with Brazil’s best inflatable boats. Its intense focus on quality, workmanship, and durability led to the development of designs specifically for military use. Since then, FLEXBOAT has become the primary vendor for Brazil’s armed forces, and also count Brazilian Federal Police, Navy, Fire, First Responders, IBAMA, and Ambient Police among its customers.

FLEXBOAT’s forward focus is working to increase its product offerings in the leisure market, manufacturing larger boats with cabins and other innovations.
