What we do
Three areas, one way of working
We find good products abroad, or develop them with manufacturers, and bring them to Nordic dealers. It started with boats, but the method works in other industries too.
01
Marine
Agencies for heating, sanitation, energy and electronics, sold through Nordic chandlers and boatyards.
02
Home & garden Coming
Dacon OxyTeak can also clean wooden terraces and wooden buildings, and Wallas Cottage heats summer houses and cabins. We are exploring this market now.
03
Engineering
We have developed our own products with manufacturers abroad for decades. Talk to us about product development.
Have a product that would sell in Scandinavia? We are open to new industries.

The Dacon Oxy series
Cleaning with active oxygen, without chlorine or phosphates. Developed by Dacon for boats in Danish harbours, where all waters must reach good chemical and ecological status by 2027 under EU rules. The same method works on wood at home.
Removes biofilm from drinking-water tanks, hoses and pumps. 99% sodium percarbonate: one 10 g sachet per 100 litres. Read more
Gentle cleaning that keeps a teak deck from wearing thin, so it can last 40 to 60 years. Also cleans wooden terraces, fences and wooden buildings. Read more
Used on boats, drinking-water tanks, wooden terraces and wooden buildings.
