IVS manufactured several covers for our fire station, among them covers for radiators and equipment. In terms of surveying, execution, manufacturing and the final appearance the result is outstanding. Thank you for that on behalf of the Kummerow lakeside community. Genuine craftsmanship still exists here.
What plant builders expect from IVS
IVS supports machine and plant builders with precisely fitted insulation systems and prefabricated sheet metal parts from our own workshop.
In Malchin we manufacture sheet metal components from aluminium, galvanised steel and V2A and V4A stainless steel. Mobile surveying technology allows the measurements to be transferred quickly into prefabrication; changes can be taken into the production flow at short notice.
Insulation material, metal cladding and execution are matched to the design, the medium, the temperature and the installation situation. The result is ready-to-install solutions for vessels, pipework, modules and skids.
Use in plant engineering
Vessels & tanks: product vessels, buffer tanks, acid vessels and pressure tanks receive complete cladding from us in mineral wool or PUR/PIR rigid foam with a stainless steel jacket. For the food industry we manufacture jackets from V2A or V4A fitted precisely around every nozzle, manhole and connection. The result is hygienically closed surfaces that stay easy to clean during ongoing operation. In workshop prefabrication we work with CNC sheet metal machines: even complex geometries such as cylindroconical tanks or double-jacketed reactors get a cleanly fitting cladding. We supply material certificates and photo documentation with them, so that the plant documentation stays complete and hygiene audits have a clean basis. For pressure tanks with burst protection or double-walled vessels we adapt the jacket and insulation system so that the safety requirements are not impaired. From the first insulation thickness calculation to the final handover, we accompany the project from a single source.
Pipework & distribution systems: prefabricated shells and formed parts for hot water, brine, glycol and process lines. Surveying with a mobile system directly on site or at the skid; prefabrication in Malchin runs in parallel with the plant construction. This lets long pipe runs including bends, tees and fittings be integrated into modular structures without downtime. For outdoor pipework we choose weather-resistant cladding shells in galvanised steel, aluminium or stainless steel, with tight joints and cleanly detailed end closures. A service life of 10 to 15 years without water ingress is the benchmark here. Fire wall penetrations, seals and transitions are also carried out to certified systems, with documentation for approval by authorities and insurers. On modular skids we install the complete runs including the cladding alignment in our works. You receive ready-to-install units whose insulation has already reached its final state before delivery.
Heat exchangers & evaporators: we manufacture precisely fitting hoods, jackets and casings for the respective installation situation. Insulation material, insulation thickness and metal cladding are matched to the medium temperature, the environment and the maintenance requirements. Inspection and cleaning openings as well as connecting nozzles remain accessible.
Complete assembly in the workshop: plant builders who deliver their modules ready for installation hand the module over to us in advance for complete insulation. We insulate vessels, pipework, pumps and fittings directly on the skid, close the cladding and return it ready for installation, including documentation for your in-house quality assurance and for the later final acceptance at the operator’s site. On special projects with short modular construction cycles we agree the order of the components in advance and produce in partial deliveries, so that your final assembly schedule can be met. On request we also accompany commissioning, from the first hot run to the test run, and carry out thermal imaging to check the quality of the insulation. Our installation teams work throughout Germany and, where required, in Denmark, the Netherlands, Belgium and Austria; project communication in English is also possible.
Our services for plant builders
Six coordinated disciplines, from a single source, in our own prefabrication, with documented execution.
-
Cold insulation
Low-temperature applications from −60 °C in your modules and skids. Condensation prevention on brine, glycol and refrigerant lines, from our own prefabrication.
-
Thermal insulation
Thermal insulation for steam, hot water and thermal oil lines with an insulation build-up matched to the project.
-
Fire protection insulation
Enclosures and fire penetration seals for plant components. Local damage limitation in the event of fire thanks to certified systems.
-
Acoustic insulation
Machine enclosures for compressors, pumps and drives, frequently combined with thermal or cold insulation.
-
PUR foaming
PUR high-pressure pour foaming for closed cavities in suitable components and sheet metal structures.
-
Project planning
On-site surveying with a mobile system, insulation thickness calculation, workshop production. Complete project support up to the test run.
What our customers say
Voices from plant builders who work with IVS as a supplier.
Supplier enquiry as a plant builder
Are you integrating technical insulation into your modules or complete plants? Send me drawings or the geometry and we will supply as a subcontractor from our own prefabrication in Malchin.
Both from a single source. In the workshop we prefabricate jackets, shells and formed parts; on site or directly at the module our well-practised teams take care of the installation. For pure supply work we also deliver to your survey data without installing ourselves.
As standard V2A (1.4301) and V4A (1.4571), the latter for hygiene-sensitive applications in food and beverage production. Special materials are processed on request. Since 2014 all stainless steel production has run in a separate hall without any carbon steel contamination.
Yes. We work with DXF, DWG and common list formats. Alternatively our mobile surveying system records the geometry directly on site and sends the data to our CNC machines. With complete design data, production can start without a prior survey.
We give delivery dates on a project basis once the scope, materials, design data and interfaces have been clarified. For series production or modular construction we agree the order of the components and possible partial deliveries with you early on.
Yes. If you want to deliver modules already insulated and ready for installation, hand the skid over to us in advance. We insulate vessels, pipework, pumps and fittings directly on the module, close the cladding and return the complete unit, including photo documentation and material records.
The choice of material, the insulation build-up and the agreed records are settled on a project basis. On request you receive material details, the insulation thickness calculation and photo documentation of the work carried out.
Yes. In addition to sheet metal prefabrication, our workshop in Malchin has a high-pressure PUR foaming unit. You can deliver components, vessels or modules to us, we foam them in our works and return them ready for installation. This is particularly suitable for series parts and special geometries in modular construction.
