Mechanical Fitting
Our mechanical fitting services cover scheduled maintenance, emergency breakdowns, and high-risk rigging operations. Qualified fitters use calibrated equipment to meet CLASS Approved standards for vessel and plant systems. We provide rapid response through mobile workshops with 4-tonne gantry cranes and 150-tonne presses for on-site efficiency.
Boilermaking & Fabrication
Specialist boilermaking services include structural steel welding, stainless steel fabrication, and confined space repairs. Ticketed welders perform CLASS Approved repairs using MIG/TIG equipment and plasma cutters. Mobile workshops enable on-site fabrication of gangways, access platforms, and custom components to detailed engineering drawings.

Global technical procurement services source specialist components and maintain local stock for rapid delivery. Trade-qualified buyers leverage international networks to supply marine pumps, valves, bearings, and safety equipment. We provide consolidated freight solutions and Objective Quality Evidence documentation for defence and maritime sectors.
