ARES Shipyard

About

Founded in 2006 by Kerim Kalafatoğlu, ARES Shipyard swiftly grew to become the country's fastest-growing company and largest exporter of military and commercial vessels. By employing the latest technology in both construction techniques and design, ARES products lead the way in the fields of military and commercial sectors, building upon the family's long tradition of shipbuilding and sailing.

In order to grow the company significantly, a strategic decision was taken to move into the military and commercial sectors, drawing on the company's expertise in working with steel, aluminum, and composite construction. By investing heavily in elements such as human resources, organization, and quality management, integrated logistics support, and advanced production technologies, ARES Shipyard has achieved its aim and has secured numerous sales to naval forces, coast guards, maritime law enforcement agencies, and private companies.

At the heart of ARES Shipyard's success are its willingness to partner with leading design and equipment providers around the world such as BMT, Meteksan Defence Industry Inc., and Thyssenkrupp Marine Systems to produce best in class vessel designs, to use the latest technology and highly-trained personnel to ensure superior build quality, and, above all, to fully engage with the customer at all stages to ensure that their needs are fulfilled.

These principles have resulted in the Shipyard delivering more than 100 vessels of varying sizes to date. The shipyard holds ISO 9001, ISO 14001, and ISO 45001 Quality Management System accreditation, and also holds a Turkish Ministry of Defence production license. This is accompanied by NATO and National Security Clearances from the ministry.

The shipyard classifies its offerings into the categories of patrol boats, naval craft, utility/support vessels, pleasure craft, and autonomous & unmanned systems. ARES is capable of building versatile vessels up to 90m in length in Antalya Free Zone, Turkey.
