About us

Through years of experience, PowerPort has developed into the specialist in marine diesel engines. We take care of the installation of complete engine installations, perform service and maintenance on diesel engines, generators and gearboxes and sell new and used marine diesel engines. And if you have specific wishes, we will be happy to discuss the possibilities with you.

From our workshop in Maassluis we offer you constant, fast service and quality, seven days a week, 24 hours a day. Our objective is simple and effective: to maintain the engine of your vessel(s) as efficiently as possible and, where necessary, to repair or replace (parts of) your vessel, so that it can be used again as soon as possible.

History

The history of De Haas goes back to the year 1879.  The goal is to be able to do everything for the customer in the field of sales, disassembly and installation, maintenance and overhaul of all types of marine diesel engines. We are located at the shipyard of De Haas Maassluis, which has been a household name since 1879 as the ‘first shipyard in the direction of the port of Rotterdam’. Much has changed at this shipyard over the past 140 years, but the core values are still the same as in those days: craftsmanship, customer focus and love for the profession.

 

Thanks to the combination of our innovative, modern operational management and the many years of craftsmanship of shipyard De Haas Maassluis, PowerPort has quickly established itself as a reliable, solid organisation and specialist in the field of marine diesel engines.

Mission

PowerPort is a customer-oriented organization in which quality, service, knowledge and experience are highly valued. We are continuously improving and innovating our organization, so that we can help you as a customer quickly and also guarantee the best quality.

Certifications

Powerport has quality, environment and safety high on its list of priorities. That is why we work according to the standards ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 45001 and we are officially certified.

We are regularly audited to ensure quality.

Corporate social responsibility

Given the nature of our activities, it is only logical that we attach great importance to sustainability. Many of our clients set high standards in terms of environmental impact and emissions. This is almost self-evident in these times.

Sustainability is therefore a way of working at PowerPort. Of course, our workshop meets all applicable environmental requirements, but we go much further. For example, we work according to the ISO 14001 standard and the cradle-to-cradle concept, in which we use as much recyclable material as possible.

We take environmental effects into account in all aspects of our work. After all, sustainability is about people, materials, the environment and technology. In our workshop, we work hard with clean technology, biodegradable refrigerants and more environmentally friendly solutions.

At our company, the environment and efficiency go hand in hand, so that corporate social responsibility does not lead to an undesirable effect on the price, but rather to effectiveness.
