What Boss industri og Mek verksted does

Boss Industri og Mek. Verksted AS is a Norwegian private limited steel fabrication company based in Kristiansand, founded in 1958 (per firmographics) / 1964 (per company history) and operating for over 60 years. The company produces steel structures, pressure tanks and pressure vessels, piping systems, process packages, surface treatments, machined components, and hydraulic/mechanical assemblies for the on-/offshore oil & gas, maritime, land-based process industry, and construction sectors. Its technical differentiation centers on welding competence in demanding steel grades — titanium, duplex, superduplex, and acid-resistant steel — supported by ISO 9001:2015, ISO 3834-2:2021, and EN 1090-1 EXC 3 certifications (all issued by DNV), an in-house Frosio Level III inspector, and NORSOK/TR2000-compliant surface treatment including glass flake coating.

The business operates from a single 4,000+ sqm facility in Kristiansand featuring a dedicated acid-resistant/white steel workshop and 28 tons of total overhead crane capacity (10T+10T+8T). All work is project-based, priced on a quote-by-project basis with no public price list, and delivered through a direct B2B sales motion. The company serves a global customer base of enterprise and government clients — including Air Products, National Oilwell Varco, Bilfinger, Glencore Nikkelverk, Elkem Solar, Cameron Sense, Maritime Protection, Implenia, and Kristiansand Kommune — through a relationship-driven sales process led by a recently appointed Sales Manager. Revenue is not publicly disclosed; the company is independently owned, has no subsidiaries, and reports no institutional or parent-company ownership.
