Design for Plymouth businesses
Plymouth's economy has always faced the sea. HMNB Devonport is the largest naval base in Western Europe, and Babcock carries out major ship and submarine maintenance there, supporting a large defence and engineering supply chain. Princess Yachts builds luxury motor yachts in the city, and many smaller boatbuilders, marine engineers and suppliers work around the waterfront.
Marine engineering firms need drawings that are accurate and easy to revise: fabrication drawings, 3D models of brackets and fittings exported as STEP, conversions of old drawings, and general arrangement drawings for customers. Boatbuilders also need sales brochures, specification sheets, renders of interiors and photography of finished boats. Our 3D CAD modelling work is charged at the hourly design rate.
Marine science is another strength. The Marine Biological Association and Plymouth Marine Laboratory are based in the city, and the University of Plymouth is known for marine and maritime research. Plymouth Sound became the UK's first National Marine Park. Research organisations need scientific diagrams, report layouts and infographics.
Tourism centres on the Hoe, the Barbican and the city's history as the Mayflower's departure point in 1620. Hotels, boat trip operators, restaurants and attractions need leaflets, menus, maps and photography. Brittany Ferries sails to Roscoff and Santander, supporting travel and freight firms. Derriford Hospital is a major employer, and care providers and clinics need brochures and recruitment material.
