There's a smile on the face of our lion... . . . and he has plenty to smile about. In Hongkong the lion symbolizes strength and integrity and plays a vital part in the culture of the community. We have adopted the lion to symbolize the skill and craftsmanship we can offer the world.
Since Hongkong United Dockyards Ltd. started operations their Taikoo and Kowloon yards have more and better facilities to offer shipowners. The combined workforce is now over 5,000 men, backed up by experienced European supervisors. Four drydocks, one floating dock and three marine slipways are at your disposal with full supporting workshop and engineering facilities. We are especially geared to conversion work of all types with a design and planning team devoted solely to the swift execution of such projects.
We aim to get your ships moving as quickly as we can so that your repair at Hongkong will be as economical as possible. We think we succeed and maybe that's why our lion wears such a smile!
