Facilities for mining and industry

AFOR.

We are a Chilean firm specialized in the development of facilities for mining and industrial operations. We bring more than a decade of team experience to projects in the sector.

Integrated engineering for the development of facilities for mining and industry.

We don't sell hours. We apply technical judgment.

We develop facilities for mining and industry: offices, change houses, control rooms, electrical and technical rooms, truck shops, hazardous waste storage and warehousing areas. We integrate architecture, engineering and multidisciplinary coordination under a single technical direction.

We embed within the project team as an extension of your engineering. We adopt the client's coding, manuals and delivery standards, and operate under their internal protocols to ensure deliverables compatible with their document management system.

The team that takes the project from technical surveying is the same one that coordinates the final delivery. Complete technical continuity, with no internal handoffs or intermediaries.
