Berthon prides itself on the standard of work accomplished in its big blue sheds.
From the recently completed build of 12 brand new RNLI Shannon class lifeboats, through to minor winter refits, every commercial vessel emerges from the sheds with the high standard of care and attention that Berthon is famous for.
With over 40 brand new craft in the last 25 years and countless refit projects, you can be confident that Berthon has the tools, skills, management and labour force available to make your commercial project a success.
