Tracing its origins back to the original Blohm + Voss shipyard, equipped with the most modern machinery and supported by a worldwide network of distribution and service stations, Blohm + Voss Industries numbers among the market leaders in the shipbuilding supplier industry.

The SIMPLEX, SIMPLEX-COMPACT and TURBULO brand products and the company’s tradition of producing the highest quality are recognised internationally. They contribute significantly to safe ship operation and the protection of the environment on all the world’s oceans. For almost 60 years, the company has been a pioneer in the field of sterntube seals. The SIMPLEX-COMPACT seals come in a variety of versions for use on commercial ships of every type, yachts, cruise ships, inland vessels and on special propulsion systems such as pods.

The range of shaft components is completed by SIMPLEX intermediate shaft, thrust bearings and SIMPLEX sterntube bushes. The patented all-in-one SIMPLEX FlexiTube solution consists of a mechanical engineering sterntube with sterntube bushes and corresponding connections and piping for the sterntube seals. The time advantage gained from installing SIMPLEX FlexiTube components, as opposed to conventional sterntubes, and the increased installation security make this an interesting system solution.

Retractable fin and fixed fin stabilisers for use on ferries, cruise ships, yachts and naval ships are delivered under the brand name SIMPLEX-COMPACT. SIMPLEX-COMPACT rotary vane steering gears can be used for any kind of rudder design and are ideal for ships with little available space, such as naval ships. Decades of experience in designing bilge water oil separators have flowed into the TURBULO Mechanical Phase Breaker (TMPB). The oil separator meets the requirements of the IMO resolution MEPC.107(49).

An efficient service for all products is available worldwide with separate authorised service stations. The services include 24/7 after-sales service, comprehensive replacement parts stocking, provision of additional production capacities, technical advice and the possibility of underwater repairs.
