Components: Machine assemblies, structural frames, conveyor elements
Materials: Hardened and wear-resistant steels
Conditions: High-impact, abrasive environments
Inspection: VT, PT, MT
Defence

Defence

Precision manufacturing of highly regulated, mission-critical components for the defence sector. Full traceability, strict quality control, and compliance with defence industry specifications.

Focus: Mission-critical precision components
Requirements: Full traceability, strict QC, defence specifications
Capabilities: Welding, machining, assembly to military standards
Proof, in writing

Every claim below is marked by how you can verify it.

We label our proof the way we label our welds: by what can be checked. Verifiable means you can confirm it independently today. Documented means the paperwork exists and ships with the parts. Under NDA means the client name is protected, but the scope, documentation, and duration are real and can be discussed in a call.

VERIFIABLE

Certifications & audited quality systems

ISO 9001, ISO 14001, EN ISO 3834-2, EN 1090-2, and PED 2014/68/EU. Certificates are published on our certifications page with issuing bodies and validity dates — check them against the registries directly.

VERIFIABLE

Facility, envelope & logistics

18,000 m² single-site workshop at Valukoja 12, Tallinn. 160-tonne lifting capacity, products up to 35×7×7 m. 20 km from Muuga Harbour, 60 km from Paldiski Port, with direct heavy-haul road access. Visit us and measure it — one audit covers the entire production chain, because everything happens in one building.

DOCUMENTED

What ships with every delivery

Material certificates to EN 10204 3.1 (3.2 on request), NDT reports (VT, PT, MT, UT) performed by certified partners, dimensional inspection logs, and FAT protocols where scope requires. The Manufacturing Data Record is part of the product, not an extra.

VERIFIABLE

Publicly documented project — Planlogi digital waybill integration

Full digitalization of freight documentation with the Planlogi e-waybill platform, supported by the EU NextGenerationEU Recovery Fund — a publicly funded, publicly documented project. Details on our news page.

UNDER NDA

Delivery programs — client names protected

Most of our work runs under confidentiality agreements with Nordic and European OEMs. We can discuss anonymized program scope — sector, component type, materials, documentation package, and program duration — in a direct conversation. Ask us in your RFQ.

FAQ

Questions buyers ask

What industries has First In Service delivered to?

Marine, offshore and subsea, oil & gas, defence, energy and rotating equipment, mining and machine building, and pulp & paper — over 15 industries in total.

Can First In Service provide client references?

Most delivery programs run under NDAs with Nordic and European OEMs, so client names are protected. Anonymized program scope — sector, component type, materials, documentation, duration — can be discussed in a direct conversation.

What proof of quality does First In Service offer?

Proof labeled by verifiability: independently checkable certifications and facility facts, documented Manufacturing Data Records shipped with every delivery, and the publicly documented EU-funded Planlogi digitalization project.

Does First In Service work with classification societies?

Yes — DNV, Lloyd's Register, Bureau Veritas, and RINA, with the survey and documentation scope defined per project.

In brief

160 tonnes. 35 metres. 20 km to the ship. Heavy fabrication, precision machining and mechanical assembly under one accountable scope. One supplier owns the finished geometry — and the documentation that proves it.
