Griffon Hoverwork is the world leader in the design and
manufacture of hovercraft, offering pioneering new
solutions, expert advice, training and consultancy. 170
Griffon Hoverwork craft operate in 41 countries, in every
environment ranging from the humid jungles of South America
and the dry heat of the Middle East to the High Arctic.
Griffon hovercraft are proven and reliable, operating in
support of the UK Royal Marines for 17 years. At the
forefront of innovation, the company has the widest range of
hovercraft and choice of design from small craft carrying 5
troops to their larger craft capable of carrying 180 pax. A
hovercraft is the only true amphibian, capable of rapid
transit up to 45kts over land, water, mud, sand, swamps,
rapids and other areas where conventional craft cannot
operate. In many areas military options are limited to a
small window of tidal opportunity for conventional craft.
With a hovercraft the window is always open. The hovercraft
is extremely environmentally friendly, leaving virtually no
wake and passing above reefs, preserving the integrity of
river banks and swamp areas. Griffon Hoverwork currently
supplies a large number of Special Forces, Navies, Armies,
Coast Guards and Marine Police in multiple roles including
humanitarian aid and disaster relief.
