Marina works are progressing across Greece as Ingemar, together with Greek marine infrastructure company ITI, upgrades and rebuilds floating pier systems in Patras, Crete, Halkidiki, Aegina and Athens. The works focus on renewing ageing harbour facilities for recreational boats ahead of the summer season.
In Aegina, work has been completed with the full renovation of the existing piers. Located about 40 minutes from Athens, the marina is next to the commercial port and serves recreational boats near Poros, Hydra and Spetses. The site is also being updated with the installation of four floating piers designed for vessels up to 12 metres.
Further north, Nea Moudania is undergoing renovation within its harbour basin, which supports both commercial and leisure activity. Ageing floating piers are being replaced by three new mooring piers, each more than 70 metres long and connected to shore by five aluminium gangways.
In Crete, Agios Nikolaos will have new harbour infrastructure installed under a public works initiative. The project includes five jetties, provides more than 350 metres of floating space for vessels up to 15 metres and features five aluminium access ramps.
Western Greece’s Patras is undergoing harbour redevelopment near its commercial port. Ingemar is building floating piers for the first phase of works in the North Basin, adding around 180 metres of new mooring space. The structures use concrete with a finished deck surface, with completion scheduled for the end of June.

Athens is also seeing activity at former Olympic facilities at Agios Kosmas, where sailing structures installed for the 2004 Games have been dismantled and reassembled into floating jetties.
At Skinias, near Marathon, 3,600sqm of floating infrastructure remained unused and in poor condition. Following a decision by the Olympic Committee, the refurbishment included dismantling damaged sections, removing vegetation and vandalised elements, and installing around 1,200sqm of new decking and floating units.
Lorenzo Isalberti, president of Ingemar, said: “The projects in Greece are a tangible sign of growing confidence and proof that our partnerships are working. Seeing such important structures restored to new life, thanks in part to our contribution, is a great source of satisfaction: we continue to export robust, reliable solutions designed to last, with the enthusiasm of those who truly believe in what they do.”
