TDS supplies custom prefabricated teak, composite, and cork decking systems for superyachts from 30 to 300+ meters. We serve OEM builders, refit yards, and owners directly — with digital templating, CNC manufacturing, and installation crews worldwide.
Why Superyacht Builders Choose TDS
Superyacht construction and refit demands precision tolerances, reliable delivery schedules, and materials that perform in the world's most demanding marine environments. TDS has supplied custom deck systems to some of the most respected superyacht builders globally for over four decades — building a reputation for quality, consistency, and technical expertise that the industry relies on.
Our CNC manufacturing facility produces panels engineered to the vessel's exact geometry from digital templates. Pre-caulked panels arrive at the yard ready for adhesive bonding — reducing installation time and eliminating on-site cutting error.
TDS is 100% employee-owned. Every project is backed by a team that takes direct pride in the outcome — from the craftspeople in the workshop to the installation crew aboard your vessel.
All teak used by TDS is sourced legally and certified with full CITES traceability — legally harvested and documented from forest to deck.
What TDS Delivers for Superyacht Projects
