Piling hammers
IHC Hydrohammer designs, builds and supplies hydraulic piling hammers, for on- and offshore use and is known throughout the world for its innovative approach. This innovative approach is not simply confined to the hammers, but also extends to entirely new piling techniques, foundation equipment and hammer accessories, with a view to making pile driving more efficient, more controllable, less noisy and more widely applicable.
There are no compromises in the design of the hydraulic IHC Hydrohammer, where reliability, efficiency, possibilities and safety are the focus. The design is forged from billions of hammer strikes, both onshore and offshore. The hydrohammer combines a solid one-piece ram with a fully enclosed hammer housing. The result is an elegant yet robust and reliable hammer. IHC Hydrohammer is located in Kinderdijk, The Netherlands.
Expansion abroad
In France, IHC Equipements et Services supplies foundation equipment for both the rental and sales markets, supplemented by services and customer support. The hydraulic and vibratory hammers are suited for civil engineering works as a whole, for both onshore and marine projects.
Vast knowledge and a wide variety of references established through years of experience allow IHC Equipements et Services to propose the optimal equipment for any project and the most suitable solutions according to economic and technical demands. The company is also working more closely with IHC Fundex Equipment and IHC Hydrohammer to define the most efficient methods in order to supply customers with innovative and the best possible foundation solutions.
Due to its market-driven approach and the need to maintain close customer relationships for equipment, service and support, IHC Hydrohammer expanded its activities to Germany in 2011. A new office was set up, in order to supply the land and construction markets. The offshore wind industry is also an important point of interest to the company.
The location in Singapore continues to be very successful, thanks to the growing market. The company’s Asian and Australian customers are supplied directly from the base in Singapore and that is greatly appreciated, according to their feedback. The shared market approach with IHC Handling Systems creates even more opportunities for growth.
