On the AIDAdiva (November 2024) and the AIDAblu (April 2025), we carried out an extraordinary long-term "Safety Check & Deep Cleaning" project – directly on the CLIPPER hammocks hanging there.
During the ongoing cruises – on site and at sea – our team individually inspected, cleaned and documented over 1,000 CLIPPER hammocks.


The situation:
• Daily use by almost weekly changing cruise passengers
• constant sun and UV radiation & salty sea air
• constant weather influences & temperature changes – 365 days a year
The results on AIDAdiva & AIDAblu
After 10 years of continuous use, all 1,000 CLIPPER hammocks were on board:
• technically absolutely flawless
• without material defects – neither in the fabric, yarn, webbing or shackles
• safety tested & stable
• Amazingly colorfast – even after years in sun and salt air
Only a few hammocks were replaced – not because of wear and tear, but because of cigarette burns, spilled nail polish or stubborn paint stains (e.g. ship paint = picture below / cleaned CLIPPER = picture right).


The best thing about it:
After cleaning, many of the CLIPPERs were barely distinguishable from new (photo below left). The refurbished CLIPPERs will now be able to cruise and pamper passengers for another five years.


What makes CRAZYCHAIR quality.
What we prove on cruise ships also applies to your garden. Because all our hammocks and hanging chairs—whether for private or commercial use—are:
• manufactured using an identical manufacturing process
• Handmade in Germany
• Made from the exclusive, breathable & UV-stable Batyline® fabric
• Equipped with high-quality V4A stainless steel components
• TÜV tested and certified, ÖkoTex100 & GreenLabel
Quality = Sustainability
For us, longevity isn't just a marketing buzzword—it's part of our philosophy. Because every hammock that doesn't need to be replaced after two years is a win. For you. For the environment. For a conscious way of being outdoors.
Our promise of quality is therefore also a contribution to true sustainability – and a commitment to “Made in Germany” that you can see, feel and experience for many years to come.
Conclusion: Quality that doesn’t need to be explained – just experienced.
We could tell you how good our hammocks are. Or show you how they performed on the high seas.
But in the end only one thing counts:
How you feel in it. And how nice it is when something simply stays. Outside. Ready. Reliable.
What we haven’t solved yet?
While all our hammocks are easy to care for and can be quickly cleaned with a little water and maybe a brush, we still need to work on the self-cleaning hammock—maybe it'll work someday. 😉
