SYLVAIN MITAULT
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.

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.

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.
