The shipyard was established in 1871. There are berths for vessels up to 12,000 tons and a patent slip capable of receiving vessels up to 1500 tons. Adjoining the works are two dry docks of which one has recently been built, and is capable of docking vessels up to s20 feet in length.

Following is a brief description of our different departments.

Plater shop.

Machine Shop
A building fitted out with modern tools and five overhead cranes of 10 respectively 25 and 35 tons.

Lighter cranes are distributed over the shop also in the smaller bays. We undertake the building of the most heavy machinery, as well as the smallest jobs.

The shop has spacious tool- and checking departments.

We manufacture Marin-Diesel-Engines of Kockum-MAN system, and are Sole Licensors for Sweden for these Engines, with which all motorships built by us, are supplied.
