Search and preselection
We review suitable used plants or lines based on your industry, target application, capacity and site situation.
Plant trading
Source used industrial plants economically and take them into productive operation
Are you planning a new production start, an expansion or a site relocation? We identify suitable used plants across Europe and worldwide and, if required, support the process through to commissioning.
- Plant search across Europe and worldwide
- Technical assessment with a project perspective
- Relocation, commissioning and training available on request
Project assessment
A used plant only pays off when the complete project path works
Do you want to start production more economically than with a major investment in a new plant, or expand your existing capacity? Then it is not enough to find just any available offer. Suitability, condition, completeness, relocatability and the real time needed to return to production are decisive.
IPS 365 combines plant trading with project and site management. This allows us to assess not only the plant itself, but also dismantling, transport, installation, commissioning and, if required, technology transfer and operator training.
Scope of service
What we can specifically handle in plant trading
Depending on the project, we take over individual steps or support the complete path from search to production start-up. The decisive point is always that the plant works sensibly at the new location in the end.
Technical and commercial assessment
Not only price and availability matter, but also condition, completeness, documentation, adaptation requirements and the real effort required before production.
Relocation and implementation
If required, we support dismantling, logistics, installation and coordination at the new site as a structured overall project.
Commissioning and handover
On request, we support the process through trial operation, technology transfer and training of your operating or maintenance personnel.
Service models
From pure acquisition to a turnkey project
Plant trading can start as targeted procurement or be structured as a complete package through to recommissioning. The following options are directly aligned with the desired scope.
Acquire a plant
For customers who primarily want to find, assess and commercially take over a suitable used plant.
- Plant search
- initial technical assessment
- support during the purchase process
Purchase, relocation and commissioning
When the plant should not only be sourced, but transferred turnkey to the new location.
- Purchase + turnkey relocation
- installation and commissioning
- coordinated overall process
Complete project including technology transfer and training
For projects where know-how transfer and employee qualification are needed alongside technical implementation.
- Technology transfer
- employee training
- support through stable start-up
Project practice
The decisive factor is not only the purchase, but the safe transfer into your production
With used industrial plants, the largest risks usually arise at the interfaces: dismantling, transport, adaptations at the destination site, installation and recommissioning. This is exactly where IPS 365 project experience helps.
As a result, we can assess trading projects more realistically and structure options more cleanly than pure brokerage without implementation practice.
- Project and site management from one source
- Practical experience in dismantling, installation and recommissioning
- Worldwide contacts and more than 30 years of project experience
