Amsterdam is where the global marine industry comes together to discover what is next. At METS Trade 2026, Glydus is bringing more than a portfolio of boat steering systems it is bringing engineering expertise, product innovation and solutions designed to add real value across the marine industry. 

Visit Glydus at Booth No. 02.118, RAI Amsterdam, where the company’s professional team will be present to meet OEMs, boat builders, distributors and marine professionals from around the world. 

For Glydus, METS 2026 is an opportunity to listen, exchange ideas, understand evolving market requirements and demonstrate how the right steering system can make a meaningful difference to a boat project.

One Steering Partner. A Wide Range of Possibilities.

Marine applications are becoming increasingly diverse. From recreational boats and fishing vessels to commercial craft, larger fishing boats and houseboats, every vessel has different requirements. 

That is where Glydus brings a significant advantage: a broad portfolio of marine steering solutions designed for different vessel types, engine configurations and applications. 

  • Outboard-powered boats 
  • Inboard-powered vessels 
  • Recreational boats 
  • Fishing boats 
  • Commercial vessels 
  • New boat builds and retrofit projects 
  • Larger fishing vessels 
  • Houseboats and specialty applications 

Instead of approaching every project with a one-size-fits-all solution, Glydus works with customers and industry partners to identify the steering configuration that best suits the vessel. 

This breadth is increasingly making Glydus a preferred consideration for projects where performance, reliability, product availability and engineering support matter. 

More Than Products: Engineering That Adds Value 

A steering system is not simply another component installed on a boat. 

It directly influences how the vessel responds, how easily it can be controlled and how comfortable the operator feels behind the helm. 

For boat builders and OEMs, the steering system can also influence installation, integration, user experience and the overall value proposition of the vessel. 

Glydus understands this relationship. 

At METS Trade 2026, the company’s professionals will be available to discuss steering requirements at the project level not simply showcase products. 

Whether an OEM is developing a new boat, a distributor is evaluating products for a market, or a boat builder is looking for a reliable steering solution for a specific application, the Glydus team will be available to discuss possibilities.

One of the products expected to attract significant attention at the Glydus booth is its Telescopic and Tilt Mechanism, recently recognised with an IBEX Innovation Award. 

The award-winning innovation represents Glydus’ focus on developing practical engineering solutions that improve the boating experience. 

At METS, visitors will have the opportunity to see the mechanism up close, understand its functionality and discuss its potential applications directly with the Glydus team. 

For OEMs and boat builders, experiencing an innovation in person can provide a very different perspective compared with simply viewing product specifications or images. 

The Glydus team will be available to explain the thinking behind the mechanism, its application and how innovations such as this can contribute to a better helm experience.

Innovation will not stop with the award-winning telescopic and tilt mechanism. 

Electric steering is set to be another major conversation around the Glydus presence at METS 2026. 

As the marine industry continues to explore new approaches to vessel control and steering integration, Glydus is preparing to reveal more about its electric steering technology in Amsterdam. 

For an industry watching the company’s growing product portfolio closely, this will be an opportunity to understand where Glydus is heading next and how its engineering capabilities are expanding. 

Visitors looking for the next generation of marine steering technology will have a reason to make Booth 02.118 a stop on their METS itinerary.

From Outboards to Bigger Vessels 

Glydus’ capabilities are not limited to smaller recreational boats. 

The company has also strengthened its presence in larger vessel applications through joystick-controlled inboard power steering, demonstrating its ability to address increasingly sophisticated marine requirements. 

This expansion is significant because the needs of a larger vessel can be very different from those of a small recreational boat. 

Control, response, integration and operator experience become increasingly important as vessel size and application complexity increase. 

Glydus’ growing range allows the company to engage with customers across this spectrum while continuing to focus on one core objective: making vessel steering more efficient, reliable and intuitive. 

A Global Manufacturer Building for Global Markets 

The global marine industry is increasingly looking beyond traditional suppliers for products that combine quality, innovation and competitive value. 

Glydus has been building its presence internationally with a growing range of marine steering products and a global distributor network. 

Its presence at METS Trade 2026 reflects this broader ambition. 

The company is not coming to Amsterdam simply to display products. It is coming to strengthen relationships with the people who shape the marine industry from boat builders and OEMs to distributors, designers and marine equipment professionals. 

For these partners, working with a manufacturer offering a wider range of steering systems can bring several advantages: 

  • More product choices for different vessel applications 
  • Solutions for both outboard and inboard configurations 
  • Greater flexibility for new builds and retrofit projects 
  • Access to innovative steering technologies 
  • Direct interaction with the engineering and professional team 
  • A single manufacturer capable of supporting multiple project requirements 
  • Opportunities to develop stronger long-term OEM and distribution relationships 

Why METS 2026 Matters for Glydus 

METS is more than an exhibition floor. 

It is where ideas are exchanged, partnerships begin and the direction of marine technology becomes clearer. 

For Glydus, METS 2026 provides the right environment to connect with an international audience that understands the importance of engineering, reliability and innovation. 

And for visitors, the Glydus booth offers an opportunity to look beyond individual products and understand the larger steering ecosystem the company is building. 

From proven hydraulic steering solutions to power-assisted steering, from solutions for outboards and inboards to innovations such as the award-winning telescopic and tilt mechanism and the upcoming electric steering technology, Glydus is demonstrating the depth of its capabilities.
