Off our slipway
Barges, pushboats, conversions and service vessels: a selection of the vessels built and converted by INAVE GROUP for inland navigation.
We build new vessels, convert existing units to increase their operational capacity and adapt hulls for restricted-draft waters. Every project is carried out with marine-grade steel, certified welders and procedures approved by RINA (Registro Italiano Navale).

About us
INAVE GROUP is a shipyard located in Nueva Asunción, at Km 1631.5 of the Paraguay River, right bank, with a second shipyard in Blanco Cué, Asunción. We provide technical support to domestic and international shipowners in shipbuilding and ship repair, both on the slipway and afloat.
Our location offers consistent natural depth all year round, which avoids forced technical stoppages during low-water periods. We work with internationally certified welders and fitters and ASTM A131 steel plate, and have experience adapting vessels to restricted-draft waters.
