Our Story
AERO DYNAMICS was set up to incorporate the Paragliding production activities previously undertaken by its sister company, Aqua Dynamics. Our dedicated workforce has expertise in every stage of the production process; from the initial sourcing of the most appropriate materials, right through to the delivery of the finished product.
The technology, materials, parts and expertise used when creating a Canopy all make the Riser unique – Pulleys, Clips, sewing techniques- and are all part of a process that is constantly monitored. Any improvements are fed back into the ‘AERO DYNAMICS STANDARD’ procedures.
The long-standing partnership with Aqua Dynamics has benefited us greatly by providing us with the technology and support network for our current operations.
Our manufacturing base in Sri Lanka, a country which is economically and socially stable, is the ideal location from which to supply the Paragliding Industry. Aero Dynamics is considered to be an ethical company providing good working conditions and workers compensation.
