Tige Boats is the proud recipient of 2017 Platinum Safety Partner Award by Texas Mutual Insurance. Only 200 out of the 68,000 Texas Mutual companies were recognized with this award in 2017.

The Platinum Safety Partner Award is presented to companies that demonstrate commitment to workplace safety by implementing an exemplary safety program and controlling their workers’ compensation losses. This award is significant due to the level of hand-done processes and the use of chemicals that go into the Tige product.

With our safety practices in place, we see a significant increase in overall employee moral and empowerment to craft the best boat possible.”
