Draftec offers extensive expertise and knowledge to our customers in a variety of heavy industries, including those in the offshore and maritime sectors. Our approach is pro-active and multidisciplinary, with a strong belief that the best results are achieved when working together with our customers, as a team. This has already resulted in a lot of innovative high-end solutions. Thanks to our forward-thinking mindset and market knowledge, we are able to deliver turnkey solutions to your problems.

Draftec has been a strong participant in the maritime and off-shore markets and the renewables industry for many years. The experience we gathered at an early stage has resulted in a high awareness of the importance of sensitive package handling, that certain “feel” or “touch” required with offshore packages such as high-voltage cables or windmill foundations, and which is now a consistent added value to our customers’ requirements.

Due to years of experience in the offshore mission equipment market for a wide range of contractors, Draftec is an excellent partner, offering added value to your projects or to the development of customer-specific equipment. The extensive knowledge and team-player attitude of our engineers results in a pleasant, but realistic interaction between owners, clients, classification authorities and contractors.

Our (service) engineers are well trained and all have the required certificates, allowing them to be deployed at short notice for onshore, offshore, heavy lifting and handling projects.

In addition to Draftec’s speciality in finding solutions within the offshore industry, we are able to manufacture equipment and system integrators capable of handling projects in a wide number of other markets, for example:

Cranes, lifting equipment and hoisting systems
Electric and hydraulic winches
Offshore survey tools and moonpool systems
