Although Himal Hydro’s core business area is construction, it is emerging as a developer of hydropower projects. With this aim, it has acquired licenses for few projects and carrying out detailed feasibility and design works of these projects. Himal Hydro has got its own in-house survey, design and development department to carry out these jobs.

A highly qualified and experienced team of human resource that comprises Engineers, Engineering Technicians, administrative personnel, foremen, mechanics and electricians in addition to a huge fleet of construction equipment are the main strength of the company. Emphasis is given to train its valuable human resource, to develop efficient work methodologies and to keep high ethical standards in all respects to the works.

Himal Hydro is a registered Class A Contractor, and is a member of the Contractors’ Association of Nepal. It is also an affiliate member of the International Tunneling Association.

For over 30 years, we have focused on one thing: VALUE. This is not just a buzzword, but a vision that drives our organisation. It is our intention to offer superior value to our clients in every aspect of the construction in terms of Time, Cost and overall Quality.
