Testimonial

Excellent mechanical engineering with a good understanding of both fundamentals and practical design. Instrumental designer to one of my most challenging projects. The attention and consideration of details became evident during the construction phase of this very complex and logistically difficult project.

Our work experience with Forward Fins had instilled trust and confidence in our team members and had rendered both our companies better situated in a new business order where integrative design is essential
