History
1939

1973
Significant Growth
In the 1970s, the Brazilian economy grew significantly
due to the naval and oil industries. Portella, specializing

growing demand and moved to a strategic location in
Rio de Janeiro, near Av. Brasil, to better serve its customers.
1980
Company Expansion
The company returns to its original name,

more machines and increasing the production of steel cable slings, distinguishing itself in the
mining industry. It also begins offering
certification services, conducting tensile and
rupture tests on cables, chains, and other
equipment, with machines capable of up to
700 tons of nominal tensile capacity.
1990

In the 1990s, with economic liberalization, Portella
developed international partnerships and began importing
steel cables and mooring chains to meet the growing
demand of the oil industry, especially in the Campos Basin.
2008

Integrated Stock
Hen a customer seeks a supplier and cannot find the product they need, it is very frustrating. Our integrated stock allows us to meet demands through products available in our local stock, international stock, or other supply channels via the “Cross Docking” system, where we search for and deliver products that are not part of our regular portfolio. This way, supplies are centralized on a single platform.
We save our customers’ time by eliminating the need to search across multiple e-commerce channels.
We sell products and services, but what we truly deliver to your company is a solution!
