The shipyard was founded in 1922 as a traditional careenage that was constructing wooden ships, repairing and undertaking maintenance works of vessels and yachts. In 1994, being pioneer in its own category, extended its premises and installed a 280tns travel lift. Additionally, the company incorporated new methods in the productive process as well as in the administration. In 2009, maintaining the leading position and corresponding to the increasing requirements of its customers, created the most up to date shipyard for refit, repair, maintenance and construction of vessels and yachts. For the period 2014-2020 Halkitis Shipyards S.A. is planning and has already started carrying out the construction of a fully ventilated and equipped painting shed and a fully equipped enclosed area for new building and major refit/repair projects for Mega Yachts up to 60m in length. Halkitis Shipyards S.A. is certified to ISO 9001:2008/ ISO 14001:2004/ OSHAS 18001:2007 for refit, repair and maintenance of vessels and yachts.
