Customizable Power Solutions for Diverse Shipyard Requirements

The demand for adaptable and high-performance power distribution solutions in military and commercial shipyards is more critical than ever. At Duraline, we provide a range of customizable products tailored to meet the unique needs of premier U.S. shipyards, including Pearl Harbor, Newport News, Portsmouth Naval, and Puget Sound. Our solutions ensure efficiency, durability, and reliability in even the most challenging marine environments.

These shipyards are integral to national defense, executing maintenance on submarines and aircraft carriers to provide combat-ready ships to the fleet. However, the U.S. Navy faces significant challenges in shipbuilding and maintenance, including aging vessels, maintenance backlogs, and workforce shortages. These issues have led to delays and increased costs in Navy programs, impacting national security. To address these challenges, the Navy is exploring partnerships with allied nations like South Korea and Japan to enhance shipbuilding capacities and is investing in workforce training and new manufacturing technologies.
