Three decades with a single philosophy: our secret lies in the personalised care taken over each and every product
Ucalsa -Utillaje y Calderería SA- was founded in 1986 as an entrepreneurial opportunity in light of the experienced naval industry in the Vigo Estuary. What started out as a small boilermaking workshop for local shipyards has now become, three decades later, the main supplier of structural elements such as doors and hatches for the entire Spanish naval sector, with a modern factory spanning more than 10,000 square metres and more than 60 employees. It can be said that most of the vessels built in Spain today include elements with UCALSA stamp. Our vocation for the manufacture of customised products that cannot be mass produced led us to new segments and the development of new products. The new, 10,000 square metres factory boasts the latest technology to treat metal, but most important, still maintains the meticulousness of the technical department and each operator.
Nuestra vocación por la fabricación de productos personalizados que no se pueden fabricar en serie, ha propiciado nuestra entrada en nuevos segmentos y el desarrollo de nuevos productos.
