Inside Fundilusa
The work that happens before the metal.
A propeller is decided long before it is poured: in the commercial office where the agreement is written, in engineering where it is modelled and simulated, and in quality where it is signed off. The foundry is only the loudest part of the building.
Behind the two plants is one team that owners and shipyards deal with directly, from the first enquiry to the delivery note.
Co-financed projects
The equipment and facilities co-financed under NORTE 2030 and PORTUGAL 2030.
