Choosing a standardised vessel or equipment can be the quickest and most cost-effective way to start operations. Some of our standardised solutions are even available from stock.

If you only require vessels or equipment for a short period of time, then the ideal choice would be the rental route. This would enable you to deliver your projects in the most cost-effective way.

Are you endeavouring for the largest, quickest, strongest, deepest, ormost sustainable solution? Innovation is our prime strength. Our creativityand expertise will help you to achieve new heights in your industry.

Our customers operate all around the world. Therefore, IHC has developed global partnerships with other shipyards for local production of vessels and equipment. This allows IHC to comply with local requirements and regulations, as well as shorten delivery times, and decrease transport and import costs. We also have offices and service centres in every continent. This enables our customers to stay operational at all times.

By offering high-quality services and global support, we help our customers to operate in a highly-skilled and efficient manner. In turn, this propels them towards achieving optimum levels of productivity. The services we offer allow them to increase their uptime, as well as improve the performance of their vessels and equipment, while reducing the total costs of ownership.

Safety is paramount in the maritime industry and therefore deeply embedded in our strategy and company culture. Our people are our most valuable assets, which makes safety in the

workplace a core value. The same applies to our products and services. Every aspect of our equipment and vessels is carefully designed and engineered to ensure the highest

level of safety for the life-cycle of our products.

IHC provides consultancy services for vessel and equipment design, as well as marine operations, engineering and assessments. Furthermore, we provide advisory services throughout the complete life cycle of projects. This

could range from the initial scope through to detailed feasibility studies and the optimisation of operations, in order to maximise our customers production levels, efficiency, and profit.

IHC’s practical designs for new equipment, vessels or conversions, facilitate complex operations. Throughout the design process, we combine practical experience with theoretical background. Our design experts not only bring

their comprehensive knowledge of operations and equipment, but also detailed experience of the multiple types of vessels across various markets. IHC designs are simple and proven when possible, but also ground-

breaking when required.

IHC endeavours to offer customised financial solutions across the whole of its offering. Given the extensive array of products and services IHC provides, its range of financial solutions are equally extensive. Among other benefits, IHC offers attractive payment terms, supplier credit, commercial financing, rental and leasing solutions, as well

as (ECA-supported) buyers’ credit.

IHC offers short- and medium-term rental services. This covers the supply of modular and flexible equipment and vessels, for companies operating in the dredging, and offshore markets. This enables our customers with an

ad-hoc need for such equipment to cost-effectively execute projects, while keeping their equipment inventory to a minimum.

IHC evolved from a number of local independent shipyards into a world-renowned designer and builder for the specialist maritime sector. More recently, we have started to transition from an industrial production company to a knowledge-driven enterprise centred around technology.

In June 2014, the ‘Royal’ title was granted to IHC. This honour is testament to IHC’s long history, national importance and prominence in The Netherlands, as well as its international outlook, growth and reliability.

We are committed to creating a sustainable balance between profit, people and the planet. Our CSR strategy is based on three pillars – sustainable entrepreneurship, social responsibility and environmental accountability. IHC’s commitment to CSR does not end at the company gates. We also ensure our accountability and actions involve our suppliers, subcontractors and society as a whole.

In the challenging environments of dredging, mining and offshore construction, having the best equipment and the latest technology is vital. We have been at the forefront of the industry for decades and continuously invest in research and development (R&D). We are known for our game-changing innovations, that enable us to deliver the most efficient vessels, equipment and services in the specialist maritime industry.

IHC focuses on delivering a totally integrated solution. Vessels can be delivered with complete systems tailored to the project’s requirements. This inclusive design and supply distinguishes us from our competitors. No other maritime solution provider can design, adapt and deliver the specialist equipment that IHC can. IHC’s extensive knowledge and capabilities ensures that our solutions can integrate with the latest technology, and conform to the strictest safety regulations and environmental standards.

With our capacity to think beyond technology and through close collaboration with all stakeholders, we can create the optimal solution for our customers. Together we can deliver:

• an operating philosophy that is leading• safety that is paramount • technology as an enabler• efficiency and durability that are embedded • support that is guaranteed.

Due to global population growth, changing demographics, climate change, rising sea levels and an increase in seaborne trade, there is a demand for reliable and efficient dredging solutions. As a highly stable market, dredging industry growth will remain steady over the coming years.

At IHC, we have the knowledge and experience to rise to the challenges facing the industry and can provide integrated solutions to different types of customers worldwide. The wide IHC product range incorporates everything from standardised stationary and mechanical dredgers to the world’s largest custom-built self-propelled dredgers.

Increasing GDP and population growth are drivers for the increasing demand for minerals and metals. In addition, supply challenges – including declining head grades and limited exploration success – compels the mining industry to explore new frontiers.

IHC focuses on integrated mining solutions for land mining, marine mining and deep-sea mining market segments.

Global economics, coupled with political developments, means that oil and gas prices are fluctuating. Energy companies are having to invest in optimising existing wells, while searching for new reserves. With easily reachable resources already being used, these searches now focus on less accessible areas, including polar regions and deep oceans.

IHC is respected in the oil and gas market as a supplier of innovative equipment, and complex integrated offshore vessels.

In Europe, the push from on- to offshore activities has led to wind turbines becoming much larger, with higher megawatt (MW) capacities. They are being positioned in more voluminous arrays and harsher waters. At the same time, production costs need to be decreased significantly. Therefore, innovations are essential to increase the sector’s competitive position.

At IHC, we have the knowledge and experience to help our customers rise to the challenge, and provide cutting-edge solutions across the world.
