What we can do for you
Four things we do every day, and plenty we do on request. If you don't see your job here, ask.
Engineering services
Everything under one roof
Arc-i Engineering covers the full life of your transport equipment, from quick repairs that get a truck back to work to complete custom builds designed around the way you operate. Everything is done in-house at our Palmerston North workshop, so one team looks after your job from the first conversation to the final weld.
We work in mild steel, aluminium and stainless steel, and we take on jobs of every size: a cracked hinge, a new headboard, a batch of hook bins or a full gantry deck. Below is an overview of our four core services. Each one has its own page with more detail, typical jobs and answers to common questions.
