Technical & Engine Room Supplies

We arrange and deliver technical items such as power tools, hydraulic hoses, fittings, valves, electrical cables, lighting, and other maintenance-related equipment.

Sourcing & Special Orders

If a vessel needs something unusual or urgent, we find it.
We handle one-off and hard-to-source items by working with a wide network of local suppliers and logistics partners, providing options and pricing quickly so captains and agents can decide.
