About Palm Equipment
The year was 1979. The location: the Somerset coast. Inside a small shed with a leaky tin roof stood a figure, working hard and covered in a fine layer of glass fibre dust. This was Andy Knight, a man who wanted some better gear to take paddling, and had decided to make it himself. The sign on the door read ‘Palm Glass Fibre Mouldings Ltd’.
Just down the road from the shed, Andy can still be found working away on something new. The shed is now a little bigger, and many more figures toil away, but Andy and the team at Palm still work with the same determination and the same goal: making gear for paddlers.
Palm Equipment International Ltd is based in Somerset, England. From here they supply the Palm apparel brand, kayaks from Dagger, Islander and Wilderness Systems, canoes from Mad River Canoe, and Infinity inflatables – everything you need to take to the water.
