complete welding solutions,
from panel to hull
We live and breathe welding, offering decades of technical welding experience and a thorough knowledge of the challenges of welding fabrication in the shipbuilding industry to our customers.
WELDING SOLUTIONS FOR THE UK SHIPBUILDING INDUSTRY
In the demanding world of modern shipbuilding, precision and reliability are essential at every stage of fabrication. From hull construction to bulkheads and superstructures, welding plays a critical role in ensuring the structural integrity and long-term performance of every vessel.
Our welding solutions are designed to meet these challenges, supporting a wide range of shipyard fabrication processes with tried and tested equipment that delivers consistent quality and maximum efficiency.
Improve your safety standards, increase your consistency.
We supply welding and cutting equipment tailored to the unique requirements of shipbuilding, where heavy plate welding, confined spaces, and large-scale assemblies demand robust and adaptable equipment. Welding processes such as Submerged Arc Welding for panel lines and longitudinal seams, GMAW for structural joints, and GTAW for precision work are fully supported across the TPS Weldtech product range and hire fleet.
By integrating advanced welding technologies and working with trusted partners and suppliers, we help shipbuilders improve productivity, reduce rework, and maintain compliance with stringent marine standards.
Whether fabricating offshore vessels, naval ships, or commercial carriers, our welding systems and support services provide the reliability and performance needed to keep any shipbuilding project with a welding requirement operating at the highest level of quality and efficiency.
