APRIL 13, 2015 — Incat Crowther has opened an office in Europe to support its growing European client base and meet the demand for its products and services in the region.

The new office is located in Southampton, England, and will initially offer design and support for specialized high speed aluminum ships including passenger vessels, and specialist vessels for the offshore and renewables markets. It is already supporting several large projects. These include the recent delivery of four passenger ferries and one specialist support vessel built by Spanish shipbuilder Astilleros Armon, a wind farm service vessel in final stages of construction at MMS Ship Repair & Dry Dock, Hull, England, a multi-purpose vessel recently delivered by Supacat to James Fisher Marine Services, and two new passenger vessels under construction for service in Africa.

The Southampton office is the third new office opened by Incat Crowther in recent years, following Lafayette, LA, and Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

As Incat Crowther has grown, the head office in Sydney Australia has developed scalable, universal and robust business systems resulting in ISO 9001:2008 certification in 2012. The European office capitalizes on the capability and expertise of the Incat Crowther Group, by using well established cloud-based systems and procedures to deliver services locally.

Dan Mace, General Manager, Incat Crowther Europe says “Incat Crowther’s presence in European region is crucial to our commitment to providing high quality, responsive services to our clients.”
