Pocadel

Pocadel designs and manufactures lightweight, fire-rated glazed doors, windows and wall structures for marine, yacht and offshore use. Its products are B15 and A60 certified and use aluminium frames, which the company says it was the first to use in place of steel in ship interiors. The range includes hinged doors, sliding doors, windows, and wall partitions, with frame finishings and decorative options.

Customers are shipbuilding and marine clients, including cruise, ferry, yacht and offshore projects. The company states that about 80% of its doors and wall structures are delivered worldwide, with its largest customers in countries that build cruise vessels, such as Italy, France, Norway, Finland and Germany. It sells through active global agents and a network of sub-contractors and material suppliers, and also offers design, consulting and after-sales services for fire-rated doors.
