The Port Authority of the Balearic Islands (APB) has finished the improvement and refurbishment work on Harbour Station No. 1 at the Port of Palma. This development drive addresses the need to provide a solution to the waterproofing problems at the facilities which was leading to water leaking in and the formation of drops on the ceiling. All of this led to certain discomfort for the users of the Harbour Station.

As a result, the APB has sealed all of the roof and the gutter with a reinforced polyurethane sealing system, in addition to replacing the whole of the false ceiling on the first floor.


Taking advantage of these improvements, the APB has also taken steps to improve the lighting and the air conditioning ducts, and repair and seal the joinery on both floors, replacing some sections of it on the first floor.

Users can now enjoy a more comfortable and accessible building as a result. Harbour Station No. 1 is also now more resistant and stronger.

This work has been carried out by the company DRAGADOS S.A., with an allocated budget of €188,588 and has used on average 6 workers over the 8 months the work has taken.
