01 — Company

A settled technical office, with its own judgement.

CETRES Enginyers, SLP was founded in June 1988 in Barcelona. Since then we have worked in civil engineering: studies and designs, technical assistance and site supervision, on civil works and urban development.

We have taken part in major infrastructure — motorways, roads, bridges, rail and underground works — and we keep lasting working relationships with public authorities, concessionaires and contractors.

What we bring is technical and specific: a sound solution, a credible programme, and cost and quality control that can be followed.
