About Us

Our Story

Built on craftsmanship & character

Walvis Bay Marine Engineering was established by the late Mr. Uwe Crüys in the latter part of 1999, and officially registered in October 2000. We are a well-established company offering high standards of workmanship to the marine and mining industries.

From his example of never saying no to anyone in need — technical, personal or social — together with the company's belief in the Lord Jesus Christ, came our motto: no job too big, no job too small.

"I can do all things through Christ Jesus who strengthens me." — Philippians 4:13
