“I remain loyal to DEN-RAN’s expertise for its reliable and innovative textile solutions.”
“I met Olivier in Mini Transat in 2002,2003 where we were competitors, when he created DEN-RAN in 2006. I worked with him straight away; his responsiveness, commitment and professionalism have always been a guarantee of performance in my projects. Over time, we have built up a relationship that goes beyond the professional. I appreciate the spirit and rigor he has instilled in his team.”

“Olivier SERVETTAZ has been working with us for over 20 years. His technical skills, know-how and high standards are exactly what we look for in our suppliers and service providers.”
“I discovered Den-Ran alongside Sébastien Marsset in 2023, when the team came to install brand-new, custom-made runners on the boat. As co-skipper at the time, I appreciated their accessibility, friendliness and professionalism. I rediscovered this know-how and sense of welcome when I met Léa during a visit to the new premises in Ploemel. I can’t wait to start our collaboration and take on new technical challenges on the Class40 circuit with the whole Den-Ran team and Nicolas Jossier.”

“Formidable ability to solve any issue that comes up on the boat! A smile to boot!!! Tip top team, the whole team !!!.”
“I entrust Den Ran with the maintenance and rigging modifications (rigging repairs after storm Alex, fitting of runners, annual maintenance) of my Pogo 36 with which I’ve been doing amateur ocean racing for 6 years (Spi, Armen Race, Drheam Cup, Fastnet, Cowes-Dinard…). With Den Ran there are only solutions, and always with a smile. The quality of the work is always impressive, and I’m always confident and happy to call on the Den Ran team.”
“The Den-Ran company, which works with rope manufacturer Lancelin, has over the past 10 years become a benchmark in the manufacture of textil cables for standing rigging (cables holding the mast), as well as running rigging (all the ropes used to handle a ship’s sails). With part of our team coming from ocean racing, and having long been familiar with Den-Ran’s skills, we wanted to optimize Isabelle’s rigging performance by calling on its expertise and, above all, the reliability of its products.”
“We chose to collaborate with Den-Ran because it is a benchmark company in rope processing, with genuine know-how rooted in the region. It was important to us to work with a French brand, and even more so with a player directly linked to the world of nautical adventure, which fully echoes the spirit of our brand.We were also particularly impressed by their approach to recycling materials, which is in line with our desire to develop products with a circular design logic. It was therefore natural for us to collaborate with them on our Sling Bags, a joint project that makes sense in both form and content, and reflects the values we share. Labo Mono is a brand dedicated to the creation of functional, durable equipment ready for adventure.
“I have an extremely good opinion of your welcome, your skills, the fair work you propose in relation to my needs. In particular, I really appreciate the fact that you take into account my very small requests (small boat, small budget, desire to recycle as much as possible), while you otherwise manage projects 100 times more complex and interesting technically and financially. In this way, I sense your ability to combine a real local business approach (with a smile and the little word that goes with it) with a high-tech, high-performance context.”

Hats off to the DEN-RAN team!
