INTERIOR MANUFACTURING AND FIT-OUT

Superyacht Interior
Manufacturing and Outfitting
for Newbuild and Refit

We turn a yacht interior design into a finished, installed interior. Working from the designer's package, our Darıca workshop details, manufactures and finishes the interior and, where the scope includes it, our teams install it on board, for newbuild and refit projects.

Production runs in our own 2,500 m² workshop in Darıca, near Istanbul: production drawings, 3-axis and 5-axis CNC, joinery, veneer, upholstery, varnish and finishing, mock-ups and pre-fit, then delivery to the yard and installation on board.

We work as an interior outfitter and production partner for interior architects, yacht designers, furniture makers, shipyards and project teams who have the design and need it built to the standard it was drawn to.

Certified Systems and Industry Membership

Our management systems are certified by LRQA to ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 45001. KRM Yacht is the first Turkish member of the ICOMIA Superyacht Refit Group, and as of 2026 still the only one.

WORKSHOP-TO-YARD INTERIOR WORK

From Design Package
to Installed Interior

A designer's drawings show what the interior should be. Production drawings show how it is built: panel build-ups, fixings, joints, tolerances, service access and the order in which it goes on board. We prepare or review that information before the workshop starts, so most questions are answered on paper rather than on board.

Production runs in Darıca. Selected modules are pre-fitted in the workshop; finished components are then protected, packed and delivered to the yard in step with yard access and the project schedule.

CNC, Cutting and Shaping

Panels, carcasses and shaped components are machined on 3-axis and 5-axis CNC from the production drawings; routing, milling, sliding table saw, band saw, planer and calibration equipment cover the remaining machining, so repeat parts across a package are made to the same dimensions.

Veneer, Edge and Surface Work

Veneer is cut, matched and pressed in the workshop, and edges are banded and surfaces prepared and finished before the package goes to pre-fit or to the yacht, so grain and colour can be matched across adjoining panels.

Finishing, Upholstery and Assembly

Finishing, varnish work, upholstery and assembly stay in-house, so a finish that does not match the approved schedule can be corrected in the workshop rather than on board.

INTERIOR PRODUCTION SCOPE

What KRM Manufactures and Installs

We manufacture marine interior packages for newbuild and refit projects where the design intent, GA, specifications or production drawings are already defined.

IN-HOUSE PRODUCTION

Why One Workshop
Builds the
Package

Every handover between workshops, finishers and installers is a point where dimensions, finish references and responsibilities have to be agreed again. Building the package in one workshop removes many of those handovers.

We manufacture the agreed package in Darıca. Where the scope includes installation, our teams fit it on board, with the installation scope and the shipyard's responsibilities agreed before production.

  • Fewer handovers between subcontractors
  • Corrections made in the workshop, before delivery
  • Dimensions and tolerances checked by the team that builds
  • Veneer, edges and finishes matched across the package
  • Earlier planning for service access and removable panels
  • Installation scope agreed before production

INTERIOR PROJECT ROUTES

Interior Production, Manufacturing and Fit-Out

We agree the route before production starts, so the shipyard, the designer and the project team know what is being made, what needs their approval and what will be installed on board.

Design Package
Review

For GA drawings, designer packages, approved concepts, finish schedules, specifications and production-ready information.

Production Drawings
and Coordination

For shop drawings, manufacturing details, technical interfaces, material approvals, tolerances and production planning before the workshop phase.

Interior
Manufacturing

For cabinetry, panels, furniture, veneer, upholstery, finishing and assembled interior components produced from the approved package.

Fit-Out and
Onboard Installation

For installing the finished package on board, with final fitting, adjustment, snagging and close-out.

Process

How the Interior Package Moves Through Production

Each package starts with a scope and drawing review. Before production begins, we check the documents, the project conditions, the required finish level, technical interfaces, approvals and the installation window.

01

Scope and document review

GA, concept package, specification, production drawings, finish schedule and project notes are reviewed.

02

Survey and measurement check

Where required, onboard measurements or shipyard data are checked against the production package.

03

Technical interface
review

Lighting, AV, HVAC, access panels, service routes, fixing points and adjacent trades are checked before fabrication.

04

Shop drawings where required

Production details are prepared or reviewed and issued for the designer's approval, so the workshop builds to the approved detail.

05

Material and finish approval

Veneer, upholstery, hardware, surface finish and selected materials are confirmed against the finish schedule before production starts, so the workshop makes what the designer approved.

06

Mock-up or pre-fit where required

Selected areas, modules or details can be checked before final onboard installation.

07

Workshop
production

CNC, joinery, veneer, upholstery, finishing and assembly are completed in the in-house production workshop.

08

Quality check and
packing

Finished components are checked, protected, packed and prepared for yard delivery.

09

Onboard
installation

Where installation is part of the agreed scope, our teams install the package on board according to access, protection, tolerances, yard timing and project sequence.

10

Adjustment, close-out and handover

Where we install, final fitting, adjustment, snagging and handover items are closed with the project team.

Interior Workshop and Production Areas

Built for Life Onboard

Designed on Land, Built for a Yacht

A superyacht interior has to work with movement, humidity, restricted access, maintenance, protection during the yard period and the systems running behind finished surfaces.

Service Access

Removable panels, access routes and maintenance points are planned before production is fixed.

System Interfaces

Electrical, AV, lighting, HVAC, grilles and equipment interfaces are coordinated with the visible interior elements.

Finish Durability

Surface choices are checked against onboard use, movement, cleaning, maintenance and protection during installation.

Installation Conditions

Access routes, tolerances, lifting, protection and final adjustment can affect the finished result as much as workshop production.

STARTING AN INTERIOR PRODUCTION SCOPE

For Interior Architects,
Designers, Furniture Makers
and Shipyards

Every interior package starts from a different point. Some projects arrive with a designer's concept package. Some have GA drawings, specifications and finish schedules. Others are already at production drawing stage.

We review what is available, define the production scope, check the technical interfaces and set out how the package moves from our workshop to installation on board. Drawings can be reviewed under NDA.

Useful Starting Information

  • General arrangement or relevant drawings
  • Approved concept design or designer package
  • Production drawings or shop drawings if available
  • Finish schedule, material notes or specifications
  • Area list and intended interior scope
  • Target yard period and installation location
  • Shipyard, designer, owner's representative or project contact

FAQs

Superyacht Interior Manufacturing Questions

Can you manufacture an interior from an external designer's package?
Yes. That is the core of this work. We build from the designer's package, GA drawings, specifications, finish schedules, production drawings or shop drawings, and review the package against manufacturing, onboard access, technical interfaces and installation before production starts. Where production drawings are missing, we prepare them for the designer's approval.
Do you provide concept interior design?
No. We are not a concept design studio. The concept comes from the owner's designer or the project's interior architect. We take it into detailing, production drawings, manufacturing, pre-fit and, where agreed, installation on board.
Do you manufacture interiors for newbuild yachts?
Yes. We manufacture interior packages for newbuild projects where the design intent and production information are defined, and carry them through pre-fit, delivery to the building yard and, where the scope includes it, installation on board. We manufacture the interior; we do not build yachts.
Can furniture makers and interior suppliers work with you?
Yes. Furniture makers, interior suppliers and design studios can bring us a design or a production package to build in our Darıca workshop, for a full interior or for selected packages such as cabinetry, panels or upholstered pieces.
Where is the interior made?
In our own 2,500 m² interior workshop in Darıca, near Istanbul. Where installation is included, it follows the agreed yard period, access and project conditions.
Which work is done in-house?
Production drawings, 3-axis and 5-axis CNC, interior carpentry and joinery, cabinetry, veneer, edge and surface preparation, upholstery, finishing and assembly. Selected modules are mock-up or pre-fit checked in the workshop before installation on board; on selected pre-fit checks the tolerance is ±0.5 mm.
Do you work with shipyards, designers and project teams in Europe?
Yes. We review interior production scopes for shipyards, designers, owner's representatives and project teams in Türkiye and Europe. The production and installation route is confirmed against drawings, specifications, logistics, yard access and the project period.
Do you handle interior refit as well?
Yes. For interior work on an existing yacht during a yard period, including layout changes and finish renewal, see our yacht interior refit page.
