Nationalities[ 1 ] What makes us different?
One thing that makes Tanaruz unique is our ability to design, develop, and print our product line under one roof.
We own several robotic 3D printers (some of the largest in Europe) which allows us to go through a very
efficient process of prototyping, where we can experiment and optimise our designs on the fly. Our printer combined
with our small but very talented team allows us to take full advantage of conducting all of our product
developments in-house.
[ 2 ] What is large scale 3D printing.
In its most basic form, 3D printing is the controlled extrusion of material along a programmed path map that the printer follows. With large scale printing, the same principles apply but at a much larger, more extreme scale. Robotic 3D printing also allows 5th axis movement control, which renders robotic 3D printing as an appropriate production technique for many new product categories.

History of RAW IDEA Tanaruz Boats are developed, designed and produced by the Rotterdam-based start-up RAW Idea B.V.
Tanaruz is inspired by the work of Swedish sailor and boat builder Sven Yrvind, who proved the world that smaller
boats make more sense. Small boats take less maintenance and costs, leaving more time for sailing, and are
relatively stronger, allowing you to go further.
As in The Netherlands, we have as many people with a view on sailing as we have people with a view on soccer,
we realized immediately we needed to bring personalized solutions. Only 3D print can bring the perfect solution
to each sailors’ needs, water requirements and personal expression, over time and with others.
In times of climate change, we will all need to adapt. Therefore, we will bring you our solutions for living
and travelling on water. By integrating 3D printing solutions from our app, we bring you producer to consumer
solutions directly anytime, everytime.
We save transportation costs and allow for the re-use of materials and equipment. Our boats, and who knows,
one day your boat, may be shredded and reprinted everywhere, so nothing goes to waste. Our designs and the
designs of our clients, will be brought to all seafaring nations for all to benefit.
