High-Angle Engineering, Industrial Rigging & Critical Asset Lifecycle Services
A specialized industrial contractor
TALOS General Construction provides high-consequence maintenance, specialized access engineering and structural integrity solutions for heavy industrial facilities across Southeast Europe, the Mediterranean basin and Sub-Saharan Africa.
We operate at the intersection of heavy mechanical engineering, specialized access and technical construction. Where conventional access methods — complex ground scaffolding or heavy crane set-ups — are economically unviable or physically impossible, we deploy engineered rope access, custom suspended staging and high-capacity mechanized rigging.
From cement plants and metallurgical complexes to refineries and bulk material terminals, our multi-disciplinary teams protect critical production assets, mitigate unplanned downtime and execute high-risk interventions under strict international safety standards.
TALOS works in collaboration with the Dendrakis group, which brings more than 35 years of experience in industrial construction, including decades as a main contractor for the Public Power Corporation of Greece.
Agility without corporate overhead
Unlike rigid multinational conglomerates, TALOS gives industrial facility operators direct, rapid-response mobilization.
Turnaround & Outage Agility
We align our deployment with planned plant shutdowns and emergency outages, working 24/7 schedules to bring critical assets back online ahead of schedule.
Safety-Engineered Methodology
Every project is preceded by Safe Work Method Statements (SWMS), site-specific Job Safety Analyses (JSA) and dedicated high-angle rescue planning.
Cross-Border Operational Footprint
From our base in Sofia, our engineering hub in Athens and regional desks in Durrës and Harare, we mobilize personnel and specialized gear seamlessly across borders.
