We build industrial platforms that connect useful content, live product data and the commercial workflows behind them.
From corporate sites and technical catalogues to distributor portals and ERP integrations, Code Industrial builds around how your business publishes, quotes, supports and grows. Ownership of the code, the content and the hosting arrangement is yours, and it is written into the engagement rather than discovered later.
Six areas that account for most of the technical work on an industrial platform. Each has a service page with the detail, the deliverables and the questions we ask before quoting.
Industrial website development is the engineering side of a technical B2B platform: the content model that holds thousands of references, the integration that keeps them current, the access rules that separate public pages from a distributor area, and the publishing tools your marketing team uses every week. The visible site is the smaller half of the work. The larger half decides whether the platform is still accurate two years after launch, and whether adding a product family costs an afternoon or a project.
Platform builds on WordPress and headless architectures, technical catalogues, product finders and configurators, distributor and customer portals, ERP and PIM integrations, CRM and marketing automation connections, single sign-on, multilingual publishing, migrations from legacy platforms, performance and security work, and ongoing support after launch.
ERP implementation, PIM selection projects and internal IT infrastructure. We integrate with the systems you have and we take part in the technical conversations with the teams that run them, but replacing or configuring those systems is a different discipline with different specialists.
Code Industrial is the industrial B2B practice of Code Barcelona, an agency building corporate websites and digital platforms since 2015. The same strategy, design and engineering team works on every industrial project, from the first scoping session through to life after launch.
The word website covers four quite different builds in industrial B2B, and they have different costs, risks and owners inside your organisation.
What technical and procurement teams ask before an industrial build is approved.
Three things, mostly. A content model built for product ranges, variants, documents and market availability rather than pages and posts. Integration with the systems that already hold your product and customer data. And access rules, because a large share of industrial platforms end up with a distributor or customer area. Industrial website development is where those three meet, and the cost sits there rather than in the visual design.
WordPress for most industrial projects, because the editing model suits marketing teams and the integration surface is open enough for ERP and PIM work. A headless architecture where the same data has to feed several front ends or a product application. We set out the reasoning in what CMS an industrial company should use and in the platform comparisons under insights.
Usually yes, and the shape of the connection depends on what your system can expose. An API gives live stock and pricing. A scheduled export gives a catalogue that is current to within a day, which is sufficient for most technical content. We define which fields are authoritative on which side, so a value is never edited in two places, and we build a fallback for when the connection is unavailable.
By treating the migration as its own workstream rather than a launch-day task. We inventory the existing URLs, including document links, identify which carry traffic and links, map them one by one, and keep the redirects in place. Structured data, hreflang and internal links are rebuilt to match. The detail sits on industrial website migration.
You do, and we put it in writing at handover. The code sits in a repository in your organisation, domains and hosting accounts are in your name, and the deployment process is documented so another supplier could pick it up. We offer managed hosting and support because it is convenient, rather than as a condition of the build. There is a fuller answer on who owns an industrial website.
Updates, monitoring, security patching and a defined route for changes, under a support arrangement sized to how much the platform moves. Industrial sites tend to need steady small work rather than large annual projects: a new range, a new market, a document set, a form change. Planning for that from the start is what keeps the platform accurate rather than gradually out of date.
A new platform, a catalogue that has outgrown its structure, a portal, a migration or an integration. Tell us the context and we will tell you how we would approach the industrial website development work, what we would need from your systems team and roughly what it costs.
