Helsinki. The company also recently won the contract to supply the propulsion system for DSB

Helping East German Yards Modernize

Mock Doors has taken full advantage of the recent wave of shipyard modernization in former

East German shipyards. The growing impor- tance of ISO 9001 performance and quality stan- dards has contributed to the increased need for covered production areas. Blast shooting and ele- vated painting temperatures have also called for closed spaces, due to environmental and energy saving reasons.

Mock Doors manufactures industrial fabric hoisting doors, which are used to close large open- ings with a technology which provides tight seals, good heat insulation properties and maintenance- free opening in aggressive environments.
