After winning an IBEX 2026 Innovation Award for its Telescopic & Tilt Steering System, Glydus is heading to METS 2026 in Amsterdam with an even bigger message: the future of marine steering is already taking shape.Â
The marine industry is entering a new phase where comfort, control, engineering innovation and smarter vessel systems are becoming increasingly important. For Glydus, 2026 has become a defining year in that evolution.Â
At IBEX 2026 in Tampa, Glydus received an Innovation Award for its Telescopic & Tilt Steering System, recognizing the company’s approach to improving helm ergonomics and giving boat operators greater flexibility and comfort.Â
Now, Glydus is taking that momentum to METS 2026 in Amsterdam, where visitors will have the opportunity to experience its current steering technologies—and get an exclusive first look at something entirely new.Â
From Recognition to the Next RevolutionÂ
The IBEX award represents more than recognition for a single product. It reflects Glydus’s broader approach to marine engineering: identifying real challenges at the helm and developing practical solutions that improve the boating experience.
The Telescopic & Tilt Steering System demonstrates this philosophy by giving operators greater freedom to adjust their steering position for improved ergonomics, comfort and control.
At METS 2026, the company will build on this momentum with the unveiling of a revolutionary new Electric Steering System.Â
The technology will be revealed at the show, giving marine professionals, OEMs, boatbuilders, distributors and industry partners an opportunity to experience the innovation first-hand.
The upcoming unveiling represents another step in Glydus’s continuing investment in original marine steering technology.Â
While the industry continues to demand reliable and proven steering solutions, the next generation of boats is also creating new requirements around precision, integration, responsiveness and ease of control.Â
Glydus is developing technologies to address both.Â
The company’s portfolio brings together established steering solutions and new-generation technologies under one engineering platform.Â
Visitors to the Glydus stand at METS 2026 will be able to explore a broad range of steering solutions, including:Â
Designed around reliability, precision and long-term marine performance, Glydus Hydraulic Steering Systems provide dependable steering control across a wide range of applications.
Glydus Power-Assisted Steering reduces steering effort while maintaining responsive and precise control, creating a smoother and more comfortable experience at the helm.Â
For inboard applications, Glydus provides dedicated steering solutions engineered around the requirements of modern marine vessels.
Fresh from its IBEX 2026 Innovation Award, visitors can experience the award-winning steering mechanism and understand how ergonomic adjustment can change the experience at the helm.Â
And Something New…Â
The most anticipated technology at the Glydus stand will be the new Electric Steering System.Â
Rather than revealing everything before the show, Glydus is inviting the marine industry to experience the technology first-hand at METS.Â
A new steering technology is coming to Amsterdam.Â
METS is one of the world’s most important meeting points for the marine equipment industry. It brings together boatbuilders, OEMs, naval architects, distributors, marine professionals and technology companies from around the world.Â
For Glydus, the exhibition is an opportunity to move beyond product visibility and engage directly with the people shaping the next generation of boats.Â
The conversations at METS will be about more than what steering system fits a boat.Â
 They will be about:Â
How should a modern boat feel at the helm?Â
How can steering improve the overall vessel experience?Â
How can OEMs integrate better steering solutions into new boat platforms?Â
And what does the next generation of marine steering look like?Â
These are the conversations Glydus wants to be part of.
The journey from IBEX to METS represents an important progression for Glydus.
