Quoting the company website:
Established in 1942, Astilleros pioneered the construction of steel vessels on the Island. The yard was originally located in La Pedrera, now the centre of the Paseo Maritimo, moved during the 1960s to its present location and adopted its current name, Astilleros de Mallorca.
Since its foundation the yard has been responsible for the construction of all types of vessels. At the end of the 1970s a large 4-m motor yacht was soon followed by the first three-mast schooner Jessica (now called Adix) to be constructed in the world since the 1920s. The yacht Aldonza delivered in 1995, marked a turning point with the conversion of Astilleros from building vessels to dedicating its resources to the refit and repair of yachts. At Astilleros, we repair on average 120 yachts per year.

The house flag of Astilleros de Mallorca shown on a share released in 1971 is a dark blue pennant with a narrow white fimbriation, in the hoist a white square diamond bearing the red intertwined initials "AM".
