The Argentinian shipyard has over 75 years of history and specializes in the construction and repair of fishing vessels. It has built and launched a total of 156 new vessels. All vessels are certified by RINA, Lloyds or Bureau Veritas.
Early ships were built of wood and the company later transitioned to construction in naval steel and marine-grade aluminium.

Vessels are delivered fully completed and, on launch day, sail under their own power, ready to begin operations

All vessels built are based on designs by the company’s naval engineers, but the shipyard is also capable of constructing vessels according to specifications from other designers and architects.
