Door-to-Door Logistics
From factory to your site. We handle fabrication, container shipping to Santos/Itajaí/Paranaguá/Suape ports, customs clearance, and installation.
Why Steel Structures for Brazil?
Engineered for Brazilian conditions — tropical climate, agricultural applications, and industrial expansion.
🌧️ Tropical Climate Resistant
Designed for high-rainfall tropical regions (up to 3,000mm annual rainfall). Steep roof slopes and high-capacity gutters handle heavy downpours. Galvanized and pre-painted coatings resist humidity-driven corrosion.
🌍 Seismic & Wind Compliant (NBR 15421/6123)
Ductile detailing per NBR 15421 for seismic regions and wind load design per NBR 6123 for tropical storms. Suitable for all Brazilian geographic zones.
🌾 Agricultural & Agro-Industrial Ready
Ideal for grain storage, livestock housing, fertilizer warehouses, and agro-industrial processing plants. Wide clear spans accommodate machinery and bulk storage.
⚡ Fast Installation
Bolted connection system enables rapid on-site assembly. A 5,000 sqm warehouse can be erected in 4-6 weeks with a crew of 8-10, ideal for fast-track Brazilian projects.
🐜 Termite Proof Construction
Steel framing eliminates termite risk entirely — critical for tropical and agricultural regions. Unlike timber, steel requires no chemical treatments and comes with a 50-year design life.
♻️ 100% Recyclable
Steel is 100% recyclable. Your building can be fully disassembled and recycled at end of life, supporting AQUA-HQE and LEED green building certification goals in Brazil.
