isoplus – peace of mind throughout the process
Quality doesn’t
just happen
Verner Rosendal
Managing Director
Welcome to a
modern enterprise
Supplying the best preinsulated pipe systems
takes a lot of experience, detailed product knowledge, and the desire to be the best every time.
At isoplus we also do our best to look after our
employees and to make sure they take a longterm approach. In early 2008 we moved into our
brand new headquarters on Korsholm Alle in
Middelfart. We now have plenty of room for manoeuvre, literally as well as figuratively. There are
bright, welcoming rooms for our employees, a
large warehouse for our wide range of products,
training facilities for our customers and, importantly, room to grow in the future.
Read on to find out about isoplus and how we
intend to achieve our goal of becoming the fastest, most flexible and most reliable partner in the
district heating business.

The isoplus group is made up of a number of separate
manufacturing and sales companies throughout Europe.
The isoplus group has more than 30 years of experience
in the manufacture of preinsulated pipe systems, and employs over 1,400 people.
Every year, the isoplus group delivers thousands of kilometres of preinsulated pipes in sizes ranging from DN 20 all the
way up to DN 1200. The product range includes preinsulated pipe systems for district heating, district cooling and
steam, and pipe systems for industrial use.
Our seven factories are sited in Europe close to our markets
in strategic locations, guaranteeing maximum flexibility
and reliable deliveries.
At isoplus much of our energy is focused on innovative
product development to keep pace with market requirements, using the latest technology. We have recently
boosted the capacity of our high-tech continuous production lines, where we make preinsulated pipes with gas
diffusion barrier. The gas diffusion barrier keeps heat losses
low throughout the service life of the pipe.

isoplus is a modern enterprise that meets all international
standards and requirements in all areas – whether they
apply to our products or to the environment around us.
isoplus can be recognised by its large silos

isoplus Total-Quality
At isoplus we apply the concept of Total Quality. This
means we do our very best to delivery quality to our
customers throughout our cooperation – from the initial
contact until the pipes are in the ground and the system is
up and running.
We work as a partner in all project phases, safeguarding
quality in planning, consulting, training and follow-up. We
help to design the pipe system and always provide the
pipeline and alarm drawings that are necessary for the
Project reviews and advisory services for
customers.

them up to verify that they have gone well.
isoplus’s technical consultants are happy to help with joint
assembly and setting up alarm systems. At the isoplus College we also certify outside installers so they are qualified
to install isoplus products. The training includes theoretical as well as practical components. The use of certified
installers is one way we maximise the service life of the
pipe system and avoid shutdowns.

The EHP certification, like the ISO 9001 certification, is
inspected regularly by an independent external auditor.
