Welding
engineering

With extensive experience in metallurgy, welding technologies and new materials, WE5 was born as an idea of a group of welding engineers (IWE), with the goal to accompany companies in the sector and to contribute with their fight for excellence. To do so, we offer inspection services as well as advice on manufacturing or certification: CE markings, ISO 3834-2,0 etc.

Collaboration
services

Focused, but not limited in the field of welding, we offer a collaborative service at any stage of the project. We advise and help in the allocation of resources to ensure that any client, no matter how demanding, receives the 0expected treatment and product and always achieving the highest degree of satisfaction possible for all parties.

Personal
certificates

In the WE5 team we have certified personnel such as IWE, FROSIO and levels 2 in different non-destructive testing methods according to EN ISO 9712.

Reach
your goals

The industry of metallic manufacturing has been undergoing, in recent years, an important transformation in terms of quality and documentation requirements. WE5 was born with the aim of accompanying companies in the sector and contributing to their struggle to achieve excellence.
