We provide engineering services and specialised technical support to industrial companies, as a flexible extension of their technical team with no need for a permanent structure.
Our story
Arkken was born from the experience of a team of specialists with more than a decade in the industrial world. In that time we saw the same situation again and again: companies with highly demanding projects and workload peaks that do not justify hiring more staff, but that need solid technical judgement. We created Arkken to fill that gap: to be an extension of our clients' technical team, with welding engineering, design and quality, no fixed structure and direct contact.
How we work
We are a distributed team: we work remotely and travel to your plant whenever the project requires it.
