Off The Map Supply Co started with a simple observation: the gear you take into the ocean should be built for the ocean. Not adapted from something else. Not a compromise. Built for it.
Founded by Dave Derham — geologist, designer, and Airlie Beach local — OTM exists at the intersection of hard-goods manufacturing and ocean conservation. The background is geology: reading terrain, understanding material under pressure, designing for permanence. The location is the Whitsundays: one of the most biodiverse and threatened marine environments on the planet.
The brand was never going to be just a product company. Conservation isn't a marketing add-on here — it's a founding constraint. Every product sold restores reef. That's not negotiable.
The First Aid Vault is the first product in the line. A marine-grade, pre-filled hard-shell kit designed for the specific emergencies that happen on and around the ocean — where standard first aid kits fail, and where failure has real consequences.
"Built for the 1% of the time it matters."
