Our Philosophy

High quality, competitively priced, speedy delivery and most important of all – a very happy customer – that’s our philosophy at Rolly Tasker Sails.

To achieve our objective our conscientious team of hard working and experienced sailmakers pay meticulous attention to detail in all aspects of sail production: including such things as sail design, sail cloth and hardware, construction, finish and quality.

To be competitively priced great emphasis is applied to optimizing costs on an ongoing basis. Sailcloth is purchased in bulk and the overwhelming majority of our sail fittings are made in house to ensure the quality is of the highest standard and the need to keep costs to a minimum. The company owns the land and buildings, which minimizes further capital expense and the directors and shareholders have complete control over the destiny of the company.

We are proud that we are able to pass the resulting benefits on to our customers because we are extremely competitive in the marine business. This philosophy and the reputation earned, day in and day out, since 1949, has meant that the name Rolly Tasker is synonymous with high quality, affordable, trouble free equipment and sails, which are now found to be easily available all over the world.

Largest purpose built sailloft worldwide

Our Sailloft

The largest purpose built sailloft in the world

We selected Phuket Thailand for our export sailloft because of its key central location for the marine business in the South East Asia region, its skilled labour force, the ever growing arrival of visiting yachts from all over the world and the excellent infrastructure and services on the island. There are daily flights from Phuket International Airport to worldwide destinations and a dozen flights, each day, to Bangkok and vice versa. Exporting sails to over 60 countries from the Thailand sailloft could not be simpler.

 

Our Quality

Performance has a lot to do with quality, especially when the sail is used over a long period of time.

For more than 60 years we have built sails with this in mind. Decades of practical experience, producing over 2.2 million sails, combined with our in-house use of the latest technologies, enables us to maintain our leadership position, especially in the production of ocean cruising sails for which we are known worldwide.

The Environment

Sailors were ecologically friendly long before the world started to comprehend the meaning of ‘green’.

We understood this and this is why, when we built our new sail loft, we invested so heavily in the construction materials, the economic air conditioning system and the arrangement of the workplace. It was vital to us to have a superb working environment with first rate facilities for the staff. And we have an ever open door for our walk in customers, who can enjoy a snack and a coffee whilst taking in the atmosphere and see sails being made.
