Teledyne Unifies ChartWorld and Raymarine Commercial Under a Single Global Commercial Navigation Brand

Key Terms

ECDIS technical

An ECDIS (Electronic Chart Display and Information System) is a shipboard digital navigation system that displays electronic sea charts, tracks a vessel’s position using GPS and other sensors, and alerts the crew to hazards and route deviations. For investors, ECDIS matters because it’s often required by maritime regulators and can reduce accidents, insurance costs and voyage inefficiencies—so changes in ECDIS use, upgrades or compliance costs can affect a shipping company’s expenses and risk profile.

hardware-as-a-service technical

A subscription model where customers pay a recurring fee to use physical equipment rather than buying it outright, with the provider usually handling maintenance, upgrades and support. For investors it matters because it converts one-time sales into steady, predictable revenue and closer customer relationships, but also requires ongoing capital outlay and service costs that affect margins and cash flow differently than traditional product sales.

hydrographic data model technical

A hydrographic data model is a standardized way of organizing and storing information about bodies of water—such as depths, seabed shapes, coastal features, and navigational hazards—so that maps, charts and analyses can be created and shared reliably. For investors it matters because clear, consistent water data reduces operational risk and cost and enables revenue-generating activities like shipping, offshore energy, port development and underwater surveying, much like a clear blueprint makes construction and bidding more predictable.

THOUSAND OAKS, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Teledyne Technologies Incorporated (NYSE:TDY) (“Teledyne”) today announced the unification of ChartWorld and Raymarine Commercial under a single commercial navigation brand, Raymarine Commercial. As part of the unification, ChartWorld’s commercial navigation solutions and services will transition fully into the Raymarine Commercial brand, further strengthening Teledyne’s position as a global leader in maritime navigation solutions and demonstrating the successful integration of acquired businesses into its core operations.

The combination brings ChartWorld’s established digital navigation, ECDIS, and managed service capabilities fully into the Raymarine Commercial brand, creating a more cohesive, scalable, and customer‑focused organization for the international commercial shipping market.

“Bringing ChartWorld and Raymarine Commercial together under one unified brand is a clear example of how Teledyne integrates strategic acquisitions to strengthen our core business,” said Grégoire Outters, President of Teledyne Marine Group. “By aligning people, technology, and products within a single commercial navigation organization, we are better positioned to serve our customers as the maritime industry moves toward increasingly connected, data‑driven, and regulated operating environments.”

ChartWorld, acquired by Teledyne in 2023, has earned a strong reputation within the commercial shipping sector for its digital navigation expertise, data services, and hardware‑as‑a‑service ECDIS model. The integration into Raymarine Commercial builds on that foundation by combining ChartWorld’s software‑led capabilities and worldwide service and support infrastructure with Raymarine’s technological expertise in marine hardware, including IMO-approved marine radar and ECDIS navigation systems.

Under the unified Raymarine Commercial brand, customers benefit from a more integrated navigation offering spanning ECDIS, radar, sensors, data services, and remote support – all backed by Teledyne’s global engineering resources and long‑term commitment to the maritime market.

“Today’s announcement brings our teams and technologies together under one unified name. More importantly, it allows us to stand closer to our customers as a trusted partner – helping them navigate the challenges of an increasingly connected era of shipping,” said Stephan Dimke, General Manager of ChartWorld. “At a time when real-time insight, a solutions-oriented mindset, and global expertise matter more than ever, this step strengthens our ability to support them where it matters most: on board vessels at sea.”

The integration comes at a pivotal time for the maritime industry, as vessel operators prepare to adopt the new S‑100 universal hydrographic data model for electronic navigation and embrace higher levels of vessel connectivity. By bringing technology, service, and expertise together within Raymarine Commercial, Teledyne aims to give customers a dependable navigation partner ready for the next generation of maritime operations.
