Shipbuilding is a strategic industry for the global economy. From commercial and military vessels to pleasure craft, offshore platforms and floating structures, the shipbuilding sector involves the design, construction, maintenance and repair of ships and maritime structures.
These industrial services, with the high complexity of maritime operations and the extreme conditions faced by vessels, require MRO items for naval sectors to ensure safety and efficiency during shipbuilding and ship repair.
Characteristics of the naval sector
- Design and customization: ships and offshore structures are often tailor-made projects, designed to meet specific operational, load-carrying and performance requirements.
- Extreme conditions: Naval vessels are exposed to adverse conditions such as high salinity, strong winds, water pressure and extreme temperatures, requiring high-strength materials and solutions.
- Prolonged life cycle: Ships have a service life of several decades, so constant ship maintenance is important to ensure their operability and to comply with international regulations.
- Strict regulation: In the naval sectors, there are international organizations such as the International Maritime Organization (IMO) and specific regulations that regulate and guarantee safety and environmental sustainability.

Importance of MRO for shipbuilding
Maintenance, Repair and Operations (MRO) is critical to the marine industry, as it ensures the proper functioning of vessels throughout their service life. MRO operations in the marine industry can not only prevent catastrophic failures, but also optimize operational performance, reduce costs and extend asset life.
Key MRO requirements in the shipbuilding industry
- Watertightness: Maintaining watertightness is crucial to prevent water from entering the hull compartments, which could compromise the stability and safety of the vessel. It is essential to avoid leaking joints, cracks in the hull, deterioration of valves and seals, and failure of drainage systems.
- Structural integrity: is essential to withstand the stresses caused by waves, loading and wear over time.
- Mechanical and electrical systems: propulsion, power generation, navigation and communication systems require regular maintenance to ensure efficient operation.
- Regulatory compliance: the shipping industry must undergo periodic inspections to comply with international regulations, such as the safety standards of the SOLAS (Safety of Life at Sea) Convention and MARPOL environmental regulations.
Products that improve your efficiency
Customized elements for MRO problems in the marine industry
The shipbuilding industry depends on a strategic and customized approach to MRO operations. Having a shipbuilding company with the ability to develop customized solutions, such as high sealing gaskets and specialized mechanical components, makes it possible to solve specific ship maintenance and repair problems efficiently.
At Adalis we work with tailor-made solutions that ensure watertightness, operational efficiency and safety in the marine industry:
- Solutions for sealing problems:
- Customized seals and gaskets for the marine sector: rubber, silicone or composite gaskets designed to resist pressure and corrosion in marine conditions.
- Waterproof coatings: application of special coatings and paints to protect the hull against corrosion and improve watertightness.
- Repair of cracks and leaks: solutions such as underwater welds or adhesive compounds to repair cracks without removing the vessel from the water.
Benefits of customized MRO in shipbuilding:
Companies in the naval sector can delegate to Adalis the industrial service of customized MRO material management and services that can guarantee continuous operability in maintenance, repair and operations tasks. In this way, naval companies can reduce downtime and maintenance errors that can seriously affect productivity and costs.
- Increased security: customized marine solutions ensure the reliability of vessels, reducing the risk of accidents and operational failures.
- Cost optimization: a proactive approach to marine maintenance reduces the need for major repairs and extends asset life.
- Regulatory compliance: specific solutions ensure that vessels comply with national and international regulations.
- Sustainability: the adoption of advanced technologies and environmentally friendly materials helps reduce the environmental impact of maritime operations.
