Marine technology since 1964
Deck machinery for every kind of vessel.
We design and build cranes, davits, LARS, winches and tailor-made handling systems for civil and naval fleets worldwide.
Marine technology for ships
Explore every FERRI system
Although ships communicate with shore through radio and satellites, their tangible interaction with the sea is carried out through cranes, davits and rescue systems — products FERRI has perfected over more than 60 years of experience.

Our history
Over 60 years building deck systems.
In 1964, Ricardo Fernández, a Fishing Captain and Naval Engineer, spotted a critical gap in the maritime sector: the absence of high-quality on-deck equipment aboard his own vessel. In response, he founded a workshop dedicated to perfecting deck-mobility systems. His innovations quickly caught the attention of the fishing fleet, giving rise to what FERRI is today.

Markets
Solutions for every kind of vessel.
From polar research ships to Atlantic tuna fleets, FERRI tailors each piece of equipment to the real demands of the operation.
- Workboats We offer a comprehensive catalogue of equipment specifically designed to meet the most rigorous demands of workboats, including tugboats, dredgers and pontoons. Our product range encompasses both electric and hydraulic winches, as well as mooring and anchoring winches, constant tension winches, windlasses, traction winches, and towing and escort winches.
- Oceanographic In the world of marine research, the technology and deck machinery for oceanographic vessels, seismic ships and other scientific vessels are essential elements for the success of operations in challenging environments.
- Fishing We have over 60 years of experience in the manufacture of deck cranes and davits, offering a complete range of equipment tailored to our clients' needs. From standard equipment to bespoke solutions, we guarantee the highest quality and efficiency in every one of our products.
- Cruise Ships Deck equipment for cruise ships: Innovation and customisation
- Oil & Gas Deck equipment for Oil & Gas vessels: innovation and safety.
- Defense At Industrias FERRI we specialise in the design and manufacture of high-precision deck machinery, engineered to meet the demands of military vessels of every class — from aircraft carriers and frigates to training ships, patrol boats and hospital vessels.
- Offshore Wind The growing demand for sustainability in the energy industry has driven up both the cost and the complexity of fossil-fuel extraction. Against this backdrop, offshore wind is one of the fastest-growing sectors, where FERRI stands out worldwide for its naval expertise and innovative anti-corrosion treatments — a critical challenge for these ocean installations.
- Megayachts Developing solutions from your ideas and needs is our greatest challenge — and our driving motivation.
- Industrial FERRI extends its commitment to industry beyond the boundaries of the maritime sector. Through our technical team, we transfer the experience acquired in the development of marine equipment to a range of different areas where extreme working conditions and hostile environments are the key factor.
