Shipyards build and service a wide variety of vessels, from yachts and utility vessels to tankers, crane vessels and cruise liners. Hundreds of systems come together in each vessel. Examples are fuel and cooling systems, pipework and other technical installations. Each component must function without problem on board. Vibrations, temperature differences, pressure systems and corrosive effects, such as those from salt and water, require components that are resistant to these. Handelmij Nieuwburg supplies rubber products, industrial hoses, couplings and seals for maritime applications. They can be used immediately, with reliable delivery and customisation where required.
Engine rooms, pipework and technical systems form the heart of every vessel. Components must be resistant to pressure, movements and intensive use, while efficient mounting and maintenance must be possible. This requires:
• Hoses that can withstand pressure and temperature differences
• Couplings that continue to function safely under load
• Seals that prevent leaks and wear and tear
• Reliable delivery within the project’s planning
You want to be able to rely on materials that meet technical specifications and can be used in the installation right away. Thanks to over 115 years of experience with industrial and maritime installations, we are aware of the requirements set for components in shipbuilding projects.
For ship’s installations, we supply products such as:
• Industrial hoses for fuel, cooling and water systems
• Hose and pipe couplings
• Gaskets and flange seals
• Compensators to absorb vibrations and expansion
• Rubber products for maritime applications
• Insulation and fire-resistant materials
In our workshop, we build hoses and components in accordance with the required specifications.
During first construction, maintenance and refits, components often need to be available quickly. Work at the shipyard or at the dock cannot always be planned in detail. In these cases, you want to be able to rely on timely availability of the required components. This is why we keep stock levels high and ensure fast delivery if required, also in urgent cases. This way, we support shipyards and technical service providers with suitable products and advice.
ISO 9001:2015 supports this working method.
