Delivered industrial steel building
Promocon — Proyectos de Ingeniería

Making the impossible possible with steel. From the Netherlands to Latin America.

Industrial buildings for Latin America and the Caribbean. Built fast. Built to move.

A Dutch–Colombian partnership. Promocon leads design and construction on site in Latin America and the Caribbean. Thinking Steel engineers and produces the steel in the Netherlands. Bolted, not welded: up in weeks, expandable later, and relocatable when your operation moves.

The system · modular and relocatable

Bolted, not welded.

Every column, beam and connection is prepared in the factory and bolted together on site. That single decision makes the building fast to erect, simple to extend and possible to take down and rebuild somewhere else.

01

BUILD

Every part is factory-prepared and bolt-ready. The frame goes up in days, not weeks.

02

EXPAND

An extra bay bolts on as the operation grows. No demolition, no down-time.

03

RELOCATE

The building comes apart and goes back up elsewhere. When production moves, the building moves with it.

Top-grade European steel

Sourced and processed in the Netherlands to a single standard.

NEN-EN 1090 EXC3

European certification for the highest steel-execution class.

Decades of service life

Designed for a long service life with minimal maintenance.

The route · design to handover

Five phases. One delivery.

Phase 01

Design & engineering

Promocon defines the brief and leads local design. Thinking Steel engineers the steel frame in the Netherlands, with local norms and future expansion designed in from day one.

Steel production line

Phase 02

Production in the Netherlands

Every piece is drilled, milled, marked and sawn on the Thinking Steel line — bolt-ready before it enters a container.

Phase 03

Shipping

Containerised, labelled and sealed. Transport runs from Rotterdam to the port of destination, then by road to the build site.

Phase 04

Assembly on site

Promocon leads the build on site. Thinking Steel supplies the engineering and steel and sends fitters to work with the local crew.

Phase 05 · Lead time Whenever you need it

Expand & relocate

Bolt on an extra bay as volumes grow, or take the building down and rebuild it at a new location. Promocon handles both on site.

Steel building assembly

Engineered once. Ready for what comes next.

Projects · scale and speed

Built across borders.
