Engineering and customized industrial production process

The value of an integrated process: from concept to production.

One of the key strengths of Area 18 is its ability to deliver a complete engineering and industrialisation process, enabling the transformation of any design requirement into a customised component, ready for large-scale production.

Throughout this process, we place great emphasis on optimising production, assembly and maintenance times, to ensure long-term efficiency and quality.

Our designers analyse the architectural drawings and the client’s needs, turning initial concepts into feasible technical solutions.

A phase of rapid prototyping allows us to verify the product’s shape, functionality and assembly feasibility, making any necessary adjustments before moving on to final engineering.

Once approved, the component is industrialised and moved into series production using our automated systems.

Some examples of products:

  • Uprights for industrial buildings
  • Reinforcement beams
  • Purlins
  • Walkways for tanks and silos
  • Various plates
  • Other custom requests upon quotation
