NOTOX
Benoit Rameix - NOTOX FOUNDER / Master Shaper

Benoît began as an electronics technician, but above all was always fascinated by surfboards and the art of shaping.

At aged 15, he spent all his free time learning how to shape beautiful surfboards, from scratch.
He tested all his boards himself, from the Hossegor barrels down to Lafitenia reef power waves.

Not much has changed since. His love for perfection and new composite technologies make him a highly-respected shaper internationally.
Benoît’s claim to fame was convincing the great William Riedel Stretch to travel outside of the US, for the first time, to visit the NOTOX factory.

 

Pierre Pomiers - NOTOX FOUNDER / Engineer

An IT Engineer with a PhD in robotics, Pierre spent a decade working with European leaders in mobile industrial robotics before founding NOTOX.

Pierre is inspired by his knowledge in creating innovative alternative solutions, which respect both the shapers’ health and the environment.
He envisions boards of transcendent performance and ethical manufacturing.

He dreams big and surfs bigger.

 

Laurent Labat - Surfboard and Shaper Guru

His only dream was to build surfboards and he did it.
With nearly 25 years of experiments, Laurent is our surfboard guru.

He has worked for the most renowned surf brands and shapers.

His knowledge of handcrafting techniques is nearly endless.

Some consider him the best French glasser ever, and we fully agree.

 

LOU DEVER – AUSTRALIAN FOUNDER / PR and Marketing

Lou started out as an eco-tour guide in Central Australia before starting her own bookkeeping business. Then she took a trip to France, fell in love with the NOTOX brand and the rest is history.

Lou is working hard to ensure a greener future for all.

Passionate about living life with a purpose, Lou is working to educate the Australian surfing community around the benefits of sustainable surfing.

She can be found catching waves at her local beach on the Sunshine Coast, Queensland.

 

SYLVAIN MITAUT - Australian Sales Manager

A passionate and accomplished surfer with an International business background, Sylvain completed his internship with NOTOX France.

He travelled the world with his two greenOne® before settling on the Gold Coast where he quickly noticed the lack of eco-board solutions in such a huge market.

His dream to promote the NOTOX brand on the Australian shore has become a reality.
Living on the North side of the Gold Coast, South Stradbroke remains his favourite surf spot, as the break reminds him of the French beach-breaks.
