At Mandals, we have a long tradition of sourcing local resources. For years, we have been using local river water in our production facility, ensuring sustainable and efficient manufacturing of our world-class lay-flat hoses.

Now, we are expanding our local commitment even further! 👏

By teaming up with local divers from Mandal, we have developed a new, patented method to weave the reinforcement, the heart of our hoses, using sustainably sourced 𝗞𝗲𝗹𝗽 from the Mandal coast! This incredibly strong maritime fiber is woven into a seamless textile jacket in our shuttle looms before the final extrusion process.

Not only is it 100% biodegradable, but after usage, you can simply leave the Seaflex in the water, and it will harmlessly decompose within days. 💧

This hose is engineered for all maritime applications! From supplying oxygen to local salmon farms to reinforcing deep-sea exploration, the Mandals Seaflex delivers unparalleled strength while having a distinct "salty" feel that your hands will love. ⚓

Ronny and Mokhtar from our weaving department have already mastered the art of handling the new kelp fiber, and are loving the natural flexibility it brings to the looms!

At 𝗠𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗮𝗹𝘀, we are known for our world-class lay-flat hoses and circular shuttle looms, found in over 77 countries. But none of this would be possible without the dedicated team that shows up every day to innovate, weave, and produce at the highest level.

Today, we are celebrating International Waffle Day – because even the most hardworking team needs a little extra fuel! 💪

While the production line is running at full speed, our finance department has stepped up to the plate. A huge thank you to Arnhild and Arne for trading their spreadsheets for waffle irons today. 👨‍🍳👩‍🍳

Our HR & HSSE Director, Linda, has been busy making sure everyone throughout the factory gets a taste, delivering freshly baked waffles to our hardworking colleagues on the production floor.

Great to see the smiles on Aurora, Steinar, Trude, Kim, Bjørn-Kristian, Vegard, and the rest of the Mandals team as they enjoyed a well-deserved break!

We believe that a strong work environment and the well-being of our employees are the foundation of our success. Taking a moment to share a laugh and a waffle is just a small part of what makes the culture at 𝗠𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗮𝗹𝘀 so special. 🤝

Happy Waffle Day from all of us on the southern coast of Norway!
