ELIO

ELIO Kayaks began in 1979 with great passion for canoe & kayak competition. ELIO started the production of competition kayaks with the goal of creating conditions for the athletes to have effective equipment at low prices.
In this beginning the sales were mainly to Portugal and Galicia (Spain). With the development of quality, technology and design, the first exports appeared a decade later, in 1989, first to Denmark, followed by many other European countries.

In 1993 ELIO start working with honeycomb with vacuum, the more emblematic construction of ELIO brand.

In 2007 at Duisburg, the K1 Sprint 75 and 85 and the K2 Sprint were recognized by the ICF as suitable for international competitions.

ELIO have supported the International Marathon Crestuma since 1983, providing boats to national and international athletes and teams.

We also support a large number of athletes and clubs in various ways, because the passion that moves us remains the same: canoe & kayak competition.

ELIO Objectives:

We design, test and produce boats and equipment top of the range. The long experience of building and knowledge acquired enable us to build more advanced boats in lines and technology, seek perfection on detail, optimizing factors allowing a perfectly comfortable and solidarity between the athlete and the boat.

We created kayaks and canoes that remain stable without jumping on the water, and without creating too much friction or waves, factors that spends the energy needed to make the boat move faster.
