The value of experience, the power of innovation
Harken products are on board every boat: from the smallest drift to the largest megayacht
Established more than 50 years ago in the American Great Lakes region, today Harken is a world leader in the production of deck equipment for sailing. Harken pulleys, rails, winches, furlers and hydraulic systems are on board all kinds of boats: from the smallest drift to the largest megayacht; from custom, to standard. But not only that, today the Harken brand races and wins in the different sailing classes of America’s Cup, Ocean Race, Vendée Globe, Olympic, Maxi, Altura and One-Design. Harken is now present in as many as 48 countries and has two production sites: one in Pewaukee, Wisconsin, in the United States, and one in Limido Comasco, Italy. It is at the latter Italian site that all winches and captive systems are made. It is precisely the manufacturing capabilities and robotics that have led Harken to grow outside of recreational boating. Constant and stimulating activity that has enabled continuous investment in technology. Harken decided to adapt its blocks, winches and trolleys to industrial uses. Their high strength, weight, and small size have made them perfect for high-load rope systems used in commercial boating, city and mountain rescue. And today, as Harken’s business continues to expand, it is not moving away from its core values of manufacturing excellence and customer care-from the courteous voice answering the phone to the personal support of qualified technicians.
