About Us

Dissatisfied with chammy creams on the market scientist and keen
sportsman Grant MacDonald realized that he could use his extensive
scientific knowledge and experiences as a sportsman to create a
product far better than anything that was on offer – So he did.

That was in 2001, since then the range has expanded along with the
list of top sportsmen (and women) who swear by MAK Technologies
products. Among those who choose to use MAK Technologies products are:

  • Nathan Fa’vae (World Champion adventure racer), 
  • Richard Ussher (World Champion adventure racer),
  • Mark Inglis (para-Olympic sportsman and conquerere of Mt Everest),
  • George Bennett (member of Radioshack pro cycling team),
  • Britta Martin (one of NZ's top iron women)
  • Patrick Meffan and Neil Whittaker (competitors in the 2011 TransAlp mountain bike tour),
  • Brenda Clapp (NZ single speed champ) and Chris Burr (competitors in the 2010 and 2012 Kiwi Brevet).


By mixing practical sporting experience with scientific knowledge MAK
Technologies is able to identify sports peoples needs and offer
innovative solutions to leave the competitors in their wake. To ensure
peak performance and quality all products are rigorously tested under
extreme conditions by the MAK Technologies team and top athletes. Only
after this testing is product ready to be sold.
