About us
Since that time we have grown into one of the leaders in the industry, gradually mastering new related areas of activity. In addition to the complex supply and maintenance of ships of the sea and river fleet, we have started fire safety as a new activity area for us.
Since 1998, we began to accompany projects for the repair and modernization of ships.
We provide our partners and customers only with high quality products, certified in Ukraine and abroad.
To achieve this, in 2001 we created the first production base of the enterprise, where specialized equipment for marine and fire-fighting purposes is produced.
The manufactured products comply with the international conventions SOLAS, MARPOL, COLREG and meet international quality and safety standards. Each product has strict labeling, is packed and then can be delivered to any point in Ukraine and abroad.
In addition, we have all the necessary equipment for the manufacture of non-standard products according to your layouts and technical specifications.
Our core idea is to provide our customers with the highest quality products and services only, that meet commercial and market objectives. We clearly understand what product our clients expect to receive, we comply with our obligations in terms of regulatory documents and work closely with you to embody the most daring ideas and demands.
