Your maintenance partner

We take care of maintenance so you can focus on production

We know what an hour of downtime means in a meat plant. That’s why Clopés works as an extension of your maintenance department: we plan preventive maintenance, fix breakdowns at any hour and deliver the expansions your plant needs to grow.

We are a large in-house team of technicians — mechanics, welders and fitters — specialised in slaughterhouses, cutting rooms, tripe rooms, by-products plants and wastewater treatment. From Sant Celoni (Barcelona) we serve meat and industrial companies worldwide.

Reviews

What our clients say

  • We had a lot of maintenance problems until Clopés came along, and our performance has improved enormously since then.

    Jaume BoschGeneral manager
  • Clopés is a great company, professional and with many years of experience in the meat industry. They have helped us improve and become more productive.

    Paco RodríguezProduction manager
  • We signed up for their breakdown on-call service and it shows: one night the overhead rail in the chiller stopped and within a few hours it was running again.

    Marc VilaróHead of maintenance
  • They supported us on the cutting room expansion from the initial study to commissioning. They hit the deadlines and production barely suffered.

    Laura GiménezOperations director
  • What I value most is that they know the industry: hygiene, shutdowns, shift patterns. You never have to explain things twice.

    Thomas LefèvreMaintenance manager
  • They have handled preventive maintenance at our by-products plant for years. Breakdowns have dropped a lot and they always pick up the phone.

FAQ

What people ask us before hiring us

If you’re looking for an outsourced maintenance company, you’re probably asking the same questions other maintenance managers asked before working with us.

  • Do you handle urgent breakdowns outside working hours?

    Yes. We run a 24-hour on-call service 365 days a year, including nights, weekends and public holidays. You call us, we assess the breakdown with you and send the technicians you need.

  • How quickly can you get to our plant?

    It depends on where the plant is and on the service you have contracted. In maintenance contracts we agree a response time with you; for one-off breakdowns we give you an estimate when you call.

  • Do you offer maintenance contracts or only one-off jobs?

    Both. You can sign up for a preventive maintenance plan, a breakdown on-call service, a fixed-scope expansion project or one-off jobs whenever you need them. We’ll suggest the arrangement that best fits your plant.

  • Can you work during shutdowns, at night or at weekends?

    Yes, that’s the norm. We plan the work with your team so it coincides with planned shutdowns, shift changes or weekends and doesn’t interfere with production.

  • Can you help us define an expansion before we invest?

    Yes. With our consulting service we study your installation, current capacity and flows and give you a technical proposal with a quote and a phased schedule, so you can decide with all the facts.

  • Do you meet food hygiene and safety requirements?

    Our technicians are trained to work in the food industry: they follow your plant’s hygiene protocols, work with stainless steel and suitable materials and leave the area clean and ready for production.

  • What about health and safety at work?

    We use safe working methods and, before starting, provide the contractor coordination documents (CAE) your health and safety department requires.

  • Is your team in-house or subcontracted?

    We work with our own technical team: mechanics, welders and fitters who know the meat industry. That way we control the quality of every job and you always have a contact who knows your plant.

  • Do you work outside Spain?

    Yes. Our teams travel to plants all over the world, for expansion projects as well as for maintenance and breakdowns.

  • Do you only work in the meat industry?

    The meat industry is our speciality, but we also work for industrial companies in other sectors with similar maintenance, repair and installation needs.

  • How do we request a quote?

    Write to us through the contact form or give us a call. If needed, we visit the installation, study the case and send you a technical proposal and quote with no obligation.
