We support VDST instructors, clubs and athletes
At the heart of our partnership with the VDST is a focus on our high-quality, functional and sustainable “Made in Europe” products. The VDST wants to provide its instructors, trainers and clubs with high-quality equipment and, at the same time, set an example for sustainability in the dive industry. Exclusive equipment offers for VDST instructors and coaches, support initiatives for the VDST competition teams, as well as campaigns and product tests for clubs, were arranged.
Around 80.000 underwater sports enthusiasts are organised in 850 diving clubs in the Verband Deutscher Sporttaucher e.V. (German Scuba Diving Association). In its clubs, diving schools and dive centres, the VDST offers the best opportunities to learn and practise scuba diving reliably and safely. As the only German representative of the world diving association CMAS, the VDST awards an internationally recognised certification. The high-quality level of its training is certified by the European Diving Federation (EUF) and licensed by the German Olympic Sports Confederation (DOSB).
We are proud of our partnership with the VDST.

ElasmOcean translates science
ElasmOcean combines knowledge and education: lectures and training courses for everyone who cares about our planet. From kindergarten to A-level courses, from private events to major trade fairs, we explain how the marine ecosystem works, and how and why we need to protect it.
Fundraising campaigns at all European trade fairs
We were delighted to be able to present ElasmOcean with a donation of 1,000 euros at boot 2024. We also raised funds at other European trades by giving away a practical DYNAMICNORD carabiner key ring to all visitors, and we also asked them to post a picture of themselves with it on social media. For every picture posted, we donated 5 Euros to ElasmOcean. In total, 1,300 Euros were raised for ElasmOcean at all European trade fairs.

CRAM Foundation
The CRAM Foundation is a private, non-profit organisation dedicated to the protection of the marine environment and its inhabitants. Its main activities include the clinic and rescue of marine wildlife, the research and conservation of marine species and ecosystems, and the raising of awareness for the conservation of our seas and oceans.
CRAM has a cutting-edge rescue centre, and a team of technical and human specialists ready to help marine species. It also operates the Vell Marí, one of the few scientific sailing ships dedicated to the study of the marine environment.
OCEAN HEROES
The founders of the non-profit, voluntary marine conservation organization OCEAN HEROES have many years of experience in marine conservation and know that it cannot be done from afar. However, hands-on work on the ground requires immense effort and is often challenging to finance, despite a high level of personal commitment. This is where OCEAN HEROES steps in. Each year, we honor individuals and organizations that have made an exceptional contribution to marine conservation. The OCEAN HERO award recognizes outstanding personal achievements.
At the same time, OCEAN HEROES promotes the work of the award recipients as charity partners. As well as providing fi- nancial support, it is important to raise awareness of their work through the media.
