Harnesses, fall protection systems, rescue equipment, and specialized maritime PPE are engineered for maximum safety, durability, and superior comfort during demanding onboard and rigging operations.

TOPLICHT perfectly complements the expertise of SKYLOTEC as a specialist retail partner for the sailing and yachting industry. Customers benefit from expert advice, fast product availability, and a comprehensive range of premium maritime safety equipment  both in the Hamburg store and through the online shop. “This partnership demonstrates how tradition and innovation can work together: TOPLICHT provides hands-on maritime expertise, while SKYLOTEC delivers high-quality European-made safety solutions for sailing and yachting professionals,” adds Florian Wahl. With this collaboration, both family-owned companies are committed to sustainable maritime safety solutions, including short transport routes, European manufacturing, and trusted safety equipment designed for sailors, yacht owners, and marine professionals worldwide.

“With TOPLICHT, we have found a highly experienced partner who shares our values: premium quality, practical performance, and customer-focused service,” says Florian Wahl of SKYLOTEC Sail & Yachting. “Our maritime safety solutions are specifically developed for the unique demands onboard — whether for sailing, shipyard operations, or handling classic yacht equipment.

“More than ten years ago, TOPLICHT consciously chose SKYLOTEC for safety solutions for working at height. Since then, the harnesses have repeatedly proven themselves on yachts as well as on traditional tall ships such as the Brigg ROALD AMUNDSEN, delivering reliable safety for demanding maritime operations.”
