Introduction
Water sports and outdoor leisure are growing fast worldwide, creating strong demand for Inflatable Kayaks, Kayak Floors, Floating Docks, and Water Trampolines. These products are portable, easy to install, and ideal for resorts, rental businesses, and outdoor clubs.
As a manufacturer with years of production experience, we work with these products every day—designing, testing, and improving them. Below is a practical buying guide based on our first-hand factory expertise.
1. Materials & Construction
The material and construction process determine durability and safety.
-
PVC Thickness: 0.7 mm–1.2 mm. Thicker layers increase abrasion resistance and load capacity.
-
Drop-Stitch Technology: Commonly used for kayak floors and floating platforms, creating high rigidity when inflated.
-
Heat-Welded Seams vs. Glued Seams: Heat welding delivers stronger, longer-lasting joints.
In our factory testing, double-layer PVC with heat-welded seams extends product life by about 20 % compared to single-layer glued seams.
2. Size & Weight Capacity
-
Inflatable Kayaks: Single, tandem, or triple models with different lengths and load limits.
-
Floating Docks: Size affects capacity and usage—yacht docking, lake leisure areas, or swim platforms.
-
Water Trampolines: Diameters from 3 m to 6 m; larger models suit resorts or camps.
Choose specifications based on your customer profile and consider transport and storage needs.
3. Safety & Certifications
-
Pressure-Relief Valves to prevent over-inflation.
-
Anti-Slip Surfaces, especially for floating docks.
-
Compliance with CE, EN71, or other regional safety standards for access to EU and North American markets.
