- ABOUT RAINA ENGINEERS
Engineering
Excellence Since 1910
Raina Engineers was founded in 1910 in Nagothana (a port at that time), with ship building and repair as our first area of expertise. Over the decades, we have continuously evolved, expanding into the manufacture of cranes and specialised lifting equipment for offshore, marine and industrial applications.
In 1973, we began manufacturing our first crane for a floating vessel, marking the start of our journey in offshore cranes. Since then, we have delivered 200+ customised cranes to clients across India and the world, building a reputation for engineering integrity, reliability and innovation.
