Company

Built on maritime experience.

Tow-botic Systems is a focused marine-technology product company built around one platform: Towbot.

We develop detachable battery-electric manoeuvring units that bring additional thrust to the hull itself, without the need for permanent propulsion conversion.

Our Presence

Tow-botic Systems operates with an international engineering and commercial base in India and the Netherlands. This dual presence allows us to support projects across inland waterways, coastal operations, and demanding port environments.
