Our customers range from private yacht owners to commercial shipping companies and offshore oil rigs. We aim to become a lifelong gym partner to each and every one of them.
To do this, we employ a consultative approach from design to delivery and beyond, creating bespoke on board gyms, meeting our customers’ unique requirements and taking into account any budgetry, technical and temporal constraints.
Through our unrivalled after-sales support and crew training service, we then do our utmost to ensure that all on board gym equipment is used correctly and to its full potential, not only so that it remains looking impeccable but also to help our customers improve crew welfare and safety at sea.
- Our gym designers have years of experience crafting simple yet highly effective on board gym spaces.
- Working closely with our maritime customers, we are able to devise and present unique solutions using full CAD mock-ups and renderings. We are well accustomed to dealing with issues commonly encountered in the marine environment such as space limitations, power supply, lighting, ventilation and humidity control, sound-proofing, flooring and vibration control, A/V integration, first aid and emergency communications.
- Our on board gym designers are experts in the unique practicalities and ergonomics of gyms at sea. They will ensure logical access and smooth transition not only between different pieces of kit within the gym but also with surrounding facilities, to create practical storage solutions and ensure the gym is as functional as possible and safe at sea when conditions get rough.
- Whatever the design brief, our unrivalled product range allows us to recommend the most suitable piece of kit for any situation. For example, our equipment line includes easily stowable gym machines like folding treadmills, space saving gym equipment like combination dumbbell systems and even self-powered machines where power supply is an issue. We can also design and create completely customised gym equipment to fit any space.
- A gym is only as good as the equipment inside it. With over 45,000 products, Gym Marine offers the most diverse and flexible range of gym equipment available to the offshore and commercial shipping industries today.
- We operate in the UK which is one of the world’s most competitive markets for gym and fitness equipment. This, coupled with our very strong and long lasting supplier relationships ensures that we are extremely competitive on price. We also offer very attractive discount schemes for loyalty or larger orders.
- When we recommend kit for an on board gym, we ensure that all materials are hand-picked to be reliable, hard wearing, and fully certified. We also understand the importance of product shelf-life and availability of spare parts to our customers, so this is always factored into any proposal.
- We have a great deal of experience in offering a multi-brand standardisation of kit across fleets and installations. This allows us to offer the best possible gym solution for any given application without being tied to a single supplier.
- Ensuring crew members understand how to use and maintain on board gym equipment can make for considerable savings in time and money as well as improving safety. Simple advice such as suitable cleaning products and the creation of a maintenance schedule will extend the lifespan of on board gym equipment and reduce the risk of costly replacements.
- Offering an inimitable support service is an essential part of what we do, and makes the most of our strong supplier relationships and expertise in the gym and fitness industry. As a UK retailer we are able to sell worldwide, and offer a single point of customer service globally should something go wrong.
- During or after installation, our customer services team is always on hand to instruct crew on the use of the on board gym, the specific equipment and its functionality. Our customised Gym Management System, delivered via web iPhone/iPad and Android app, allows us to really take command of the maintenance of our clients’ on board gyms from afar.
- Through this clever tool we are able to set maintenance tasks for the crew using a check-list system, deliver operation manuals and maintenance guides, offer training videos and provide a 24hr support suite.
- Ship managers and crew are able to contact us directly through the app and converse through a live-chat feature or request email or telephone call backs. The system also allows our customers to oversee inventories, crew maintenance schedules and create custom reports on a single or multi gym basis.
