Home - AMEL

Building robust, comfortable and easy-to-handle sailing yachts was Henri Amel’s ethos. Offering sailing enthusiasts the opportunity for an adventure on all the world’s seas requires impeccable construction in terms of quality, safety and comfort. We have successfully built on these key elements of the AMEL spirit in our latest 50-foot and 60-foot models, with, as ever, focus on attention to detail, using 100% French know-how, which, having defined our yard for 50 years, guarantees a refined finish for our customers. As a result, Amel have succeeded in achieving the perfect combination of the robustness and manoeuvrability essential for long-distance sailing and the luxury of a French way of life.

The history of the AMEL shipyard is perfectly encapsulated in our “ensemble’’ logo; each yacht built brings together the best of our skills to offer a unique pleasure to our clients

Gender Equality Index – Women and Men

In accordance with current French legislation, Chantiers AMEL publishes its Gender Equality Index between women and men each year.

This index, scored out of 100 points, is calculated based on four criteria for companies with 50 to 250 employees: equal pay, individual salary increases, raises following maternity leave, and gender balance among the top 10 highest salaries.

For the year 2025, based on 2024 data, Chantiers AMEL achieved a score of 99/100 on its Gender Equality Index.

SA Chantiers AMEL remains strongly committed to gender equality and, more broadly, to professional equality for all its employees.

Anti-Waste and Circular Economy Law (AGEC)

Under the above French law, since the 1st of January 2022, each producer (company that places a product in the market) has his unique producer identifier number (Article L.541-10-13). This unique identifier number, assigned by the ADEME (French agency for the environment and energy management), proves that the placer on the market is a member of the APER (French association for eco-friendly pleasure boating) and that it fulfills its regulatory obligations. The AMEL SHIPYARDS’ U-ID number is: FR028009_18AOCF.
