Portex, French Manufacturer of lids, manlids and hatches for Over 80 Years
Since its inception, Portex has brought its industrial expertise to demanding professionals. Reliable and durable, the doors designed and assembled in France by Portex are made of mild steel or stainless steel, intended for the most demanding industrial sectors in France and internationally.
An Industrial Company with deep roots in France
Portex traces its origins back to the era of Gazonome and later Promécam, two major players in industrial metallurgy. In 1985, part of the latter was acquired to form Portex, an entity entirely dedicated to the design of watertight doors for tanks and containers. A clear positioning that has been maintained for over three decades.
Expertise Built Over Time
Initially designed for specific technical uses such as gas pipelines, Portex products quickly evolved to meet the standards of robustness, safety, and reliability required of watertight doors. Today, Portex is recognized for the reliability of its standardized watertight doors ready for integration.
