A company specialises in marine aluminium sea works focused on boats, maritime works and marinas.
AISTER has been working in the marine industry for 35 years and during this period, we have developed the following business lines:
Aluminium Shipyard
We have the best engineers for aluminium professional boats to meet our customers’ needs. We sell our own models of patrol boats, passengers, workboats and rescue boats, and our customers include the Spanish Civil Guard, Maritime Safety and Rescue Society, and Military Emergency Unit.
Maritime Works
We have been part of Vigo’s marine industry for 30 years. During this time, we have delivered over 150 projects in areas such as marine interiors, thermal insulation, ship supply, aluminium superstructures and accommodation ladders for all types of ships, including seismic, scientific research, fishing and merchant vessels and luxury cruise liners.
Marinas
We design and manufacture floating docks, aluminium gangways, fingers, breakwaters, cleats and service pedestals for marinas and harbours. We are market leaders with over 30,000 m of aluminium and concrete floating and fixed docks installed throughout the world.
We have transferred this business line to the company ALMARIN in summer 2022.
Aluminium Shipyard: our definition
At AISTER, we seek to combine aesthetics, comfort, navigability and durability in all our products and believe that marine-grade aluminium is key to doing so.
Our top-quality alloys and flawless welding ensures the material does not lose any of its mechanical properties. This makes our boats, superstructures and docks light, flexible, safe, strong and durable, with low maintenance costs and specific properties.

Our work can be found throughout Spain in cities like A Coruña, Vigo, Gijón, Avilés, Cantabria, Abra, Pasajes, Barcelona, Valencia, Murcia, Almería, Huelva, Cádiz, Ibiza, Palma de Mallorca and Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, and internationally in countries such as Portugal, France, Italy, China, Greece, Dubai, Oman, Brazil and Cape Verde. Our products have been used in many different locations, meaning you can rely on AISTER to ensure compliance with the safety standards required in different countries throughout the world.
Shoreline premises and over 100 professionals
Our customers benefit from our workforce of 100 employees who are able to provide ad-hoc solutions. We provide flexibility and can quickly adapt to the needs and opportunities of the market, thanks to our technical office comprising industrial engineers, marine engineers and architects, backed by highly-qualified workshop staff such as boilersmiths and welders who are certified by the main classification societies (Bureau Veritas, DNV and Lloyds).
