Ship repair & Industrial workshop

Our in-house quality management system is structured to meet the requirements of multiple classification societies. Our workshop holds approvals from DNV, RINA, and Bureau Veritas for steel works, mechanical, electrical and hydraulic works, as well as rigging. These approvals confirm that our repairs comply with international ship classification and safety standards.

Navitec employs its own International Welding Engineer (IWE), responsible for the development, management, and supervision of Welding Procedure Specifications (WPS) and Welding Procedure Qualification Records (WPQR), always ensuring correct application. In addition, we have certified welders and approved welding procedures certified by DNV, Vinçotte, and Lloyd’s Register. This guarantees craftsmanship and compliant execution across a wide range of materials, including carbon steel, stainless steel, duplex and aluminium.

These accreditations confirm that our workshop meets international requirements for ship repair and industrial projects.
